Photos setup & installation
And here we can see the final result with the CPU block prepped and ready to be installed onto the motherboard. We now mount the CPU block on top of the processor.
A pretty spectacular sight really. Let's have a look at a couple of photos with the HF 38 Niagara installed and working.
So there you go. The sky is the limit of course, please use your imagination. You could use thicker tubing, transparent tubing and coolant, different colors, no colors... that's all your call mate.
A side-note: since we already had an Alpahacool CPU block installed in this PC, I didn't want to remove the motherboard and simply used the old mounting system. So we did not use the new fastening system with the hidden springs behind brass pipes. The new and included mounting system really would look better !
I've already applied UV lighting here and with the UV reflective tubing things certainly get shiny, looks like that CPU is now fusion powered or something eh?
Okay one last photo. As you can see, the cooling block is not just aesthetically very pleasing, it's great at cooling as well. Let's have a look at some results and see if we can get the Core i7 to 4000 MHz.
