Power Supply Jumper
Jul 11
Ever wanted to try your power supply without having to actually have it running anything or plugged in your motherboard? Ever needed a power supply to run your liquid cooling pump to fill up your loop without turning on your whole computer?
So I was way-way late into doing any kind of maintenance to my loop. I’ve noticed a film of algae growing along the tubing of my watercooling, sedimentation in my reservior and I found that my pump isn’t exactly running along as powerful as it used to be.
Good thing my friend bedan21 from tpc had sent me my needed elbow for replacement because I wanted to do maintenance on my computer and at the same time replace that koolance elbow to one that doesn’t leak without overtightening my radiator.
Having a watercooled rig entails a lot of time and effort on your part so dedicate a whole day just for that if you plan on even having a watercooled computer.
Prolimatech Thermal Paste
Jul 11
Prolimatech, the Taiwanese manufacturer whose claim to fame has been the Megahalems CPU cooler, introduced its first thermal compound. The PK-1 boasts of some very bold numbers as far as its specifications go. The compound edges past the recently announced Arctic Cooling MX-3 in terms of thermal conductivity, at 10.2 W/m °C. It has a specific gravity of 3.2 g/m³. Each 5 g syringe is bundled with a plastic card that serves as a spatula to spread the compound over the heat source. European e-tailer Caseking.de has it listed for 9.90 Euro.
