Let me dig around for some older pics of when I had clear tubing and blue coolant.
This is the glow that I loved! :good: How do I achieve this with clear tubing and black UV dye... hmmmm :Dizzy:

Rick what size is that radiator? Specs? All copper, brass, aluminum?

You can't or at least not that I know of. Maybe with clear tubing and blue dye but not the black. I had the same lighting with both setups and you see the black just wouldn't glow. The feser colored tubing really pops under the UV light.

Wonder if I do a mix of the Black and Blue dye, I want something a little darker than the average blue, but I want it to pop!

What are your thoughts on a Feser 120.2 rad Nip?

Love the Feser rads. Very clean looking. Never used them as I got out of the water cooling before they dropped. Looking to get back in it one day with a full blown setup.

Mine is slightly different in that it has a stainless screen over it...http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...ducts_id=29061

Hard to find anyone selling Feser rads anymore. They don't even list them on the Feser website ??

marcam923 07-16-2011 06:07 AM
Rick, that RAD is HUGE! More than I would need, this will all be a part of my next build for a case mod contest, hopefully everything will be tucked in the case.

MaadDaawg, just found a Feser 240 rad on [H] :good:

Actually looking here:

It is universal mounting for any Intel or AMD socket, and it now includes the easy mounting kit as well.

Seen better things about the EK block over the Aqua block, think I will go that way.

Personally, not that big of a fan of the low fin density radiators (feser, thermochill, black ice GTX, switchtech mcr's, xspc, ), a black ice xtreme has way more cooling ability, just needs stronger fans. I speak from experience using all of them with different pumps and different blocks. Also, for tubing, i know you want your UV pop or whatever, but i found tygon overpriced, masterkleer too stiff, feser, also kinda stiff, but Durelene is almost as flexible as tygon, way less money, and imo, the best stuff on the market that i see out there, that isn't overpriced tygon (which really doesn't do a bend that much better than any other brand, it's just softer)

Just got some Danger Den UV colored tubing in Red and Blue. 10ft comes with 10 colored plastic clamps, and a tubing cutter :thumbsup: Haven't installed yet though :P
