Question almost done with it! [please read #18]

it's been about 3 weeks from last time i worked on my system at all...
just installed my new water tank, i just got the Thermal Take Aqua M3 1U Tank off ebay lol
pic 1-14 are my system up to now..

pic 1 and 2 are the main part of the watercooler i am using the everything from that set

pic 3 is the new toy i just got it's a tank made by ThermalTake looks kinda cool and i can put a HELL LOT MORE water in it now lol

pic 4 is the thermal compound the only Korean thing i will ever put my hands on well... Zalman stuff...

pic 5 is my Q6600 G0 lapped nicely

pic 6 is the extra liquid that came out of the stock Coolermaster system..
can i or can i not mix coolermaster water and Thermaltake water in one system?

pic 7 is the water i put in the system... seems like it's just stander drinking water, there is nothing in it, is that good for the system or not?

pic 8 is just a closer look of the tank

pic 9 the water flower

pic 10 is the in and out put connection of the tank, very bentable

pic 11 and 12 is this a good idea? cuz the the thing will not fit around it

pic 13 you see how on the black tub there is a thing around the end, but on the green one there is not one on it [will not fit]

pic 14 that's just a extra water block that came with the system and just sitting by my 80mm fan, it keeps IT cool not really sure if that helps or not, it seems like it did

what do you guys think?
i really think i need another bigger water readitor, and a hell alot stronger pump in my system

Kiki, if you can find an old a/c unit that someone is throwing away or doesnt want anymore, you can convert it into your water=cooling plans and supercharge the cooling portion of your plans.

A quality pump would be needed to move the coolant around at sub-zero temps, insulation prep on the mobo but you'lre gonna get much better results.

+1 Homebrew chillers rule. You probably need clamps on the green tubes.

To go sub-zero takes a good bit of modding.
You pretty much need to dismantle the old a/c unit in question and put the evaporator in a cooler, and put the rad (or rads) in the cooler with it, and then fill with distilled water/antifreeze or whatever concoction Kal came up with worked well too..

Porting the a/c air directly through the rads or h/s helps, but I only got to zero with the machine off.
