My first Setup

[Brinky]

Cool... maze2... 1/2" 370Gph (noizy) pump.. and a bucket... (for now)

its cool having water cool... pump is kind of noizy... who m i kidding... i like air better... i gt do something about the pump... im thinking of putting every thing out side and runing every thing out of the case... ill take a pic of my temp setup soon..

uh.. is the pump in the bucket f/ noise?? if its subergeable. is the bucket cooling the water??? usually it dosn't work well, unless it has forced airflow on it. also, water can evaporate from the bcket, so make sure it doesn't get too low and fry the pump+the comp

no i dont think pump is submersible,... its pretty noizy i need to wrap it in the foamy stuff... yeah bucket is cooling water... just a temp setup till i get the rad

the pump vibrates quite a lot... what can i do abou it (just noize wize)

What pump do you have? There are plenty of low noise/high volume pumps out there.

the noisiest pump that i know of is the via aqua 1300
