3D Rev.1 DICE GPU pot, done cheap

ThreeDhero · #1 01-31-2011

Been working on this project for the last 2 weeks or so. Yes I'd love to have a Tek-9 fat but @ $220

I can't afford it right now. So I thought I'd try seeing what I could whip up. Before this I had no clue how to solder copper only the stuff I'd done with an iron. I used a pen torch I got for $10, a few shims of copper from home depot and an old CPU waterblock I had to grind down with a rotary tool. The block is about 1/4" thick with a 1/2" stand off in the middle, the total cost was around $35 to make it

. Plan on using the pot with DICE within the week. I want to see what kind of temps the pot will hold with and without load. Not expecting to much out of it but we'll see lol
