The Boreas tesing has been completed with mixed results. I has shown it would be worth while endevor supplying temps 15C better than ambient water on a hot running 3770K Ivy Bridge CPU, This thing would be epic on Sandy. As I do not know what the final CPU will be this is a good enough result to move forward. That being said I will be starting the build beging with the cooling sytem.

Well all pumped up to come home and get started, This is where Epic Fail comes into play, it doesn't fit........ All the measuring and drawing I have done has made no difference.

I need an 1/8" .......... with no way to get it with out chopping into this case, That is not going to happen on this build, This is my own dumb fault, some how I miss typed the dimensions when sending it to case labs... if it was the demension was supposed to send I would have a 1/8" to spare, sometimes an 1/8" is a mile ............

I am completly shocked as you all know what an acomplished typist I ma ????

Anyway On plan B and C already , I will be moving forward under the presumption of Ambient air and 4 quads 2 for the CPU and 2 for the GPU's that should still easily produce a formatable gaming rig




Shhhh.............
Secretly in the lab I will be stripping down the Boreas and working water coupling the blocks to see if I can get a satifactory result that way. mind you I will be loosing the capacity of two blocks and TEC's so temps may be less than stellar to spite a more effective way of removing the heat ....

But you never know unless you try ..............

If it does work fabbing up a rack for them that will easily fit will be a piece of cake

Bummer WD, sorry to hear about that

I'm thinking 4 quads should be more than adequate though
