Warning: Gruesome picture inside

This is what I see when I open up the waterblock in my brothers computer. He had filled the system with tap water.

:eek:

Me thinks he needs a new block and radiator :eek::eek::eek:

LOL, that's one nice paperweight you got there.

:D

How long did he have it in there?

It had been running for about a year straight. Luckily that's a home made block, so the metal was only a few dollars

Got a swiftech on the way as I don't have the time to make another block.

Makes a nice Halloween costume for a fat Hamster.

wth?
/me slaps ashpool
lol

mmmmm a little calcium here... a little lime there...

*ace ventura* yummy!!

Say, how did you make the waterblock? What's a good link? I'll be home for break so I might attempt it...

With a milling machine. I think overclockers.com has some blueprints of a few designs in their water cooling section

But I hear that the lime does wonders for cooling. Minerals are good for your CPU too, right...

wow sick man

Makes me wonder what my arteries look like....:p

I should have posted a pic of my Alpha and it's nice swirly effect with 3-inch deep dust blobs to add to this thread.

Hmmm. Whats a filter?

I think they use it for coffee or something...:cool:

You also get vicious damage in a watercooling setup if you use a copper block and a aluminium radiator or the other way round. As the less noble metal gets 'eaten' away.

Thats pretty gruesome...at least it was homemade.

wow that thing is toast lol i hope mine doesnt look like that i use tap water in mine for a couple months :)
