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

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.

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

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]

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)
