do a little dino style cooling hey

Not having much luck, this 3 head cascade is turning out to be a pain in the but.
After changing the lines and putting it all together again the cpu head couldn't hold load and was falling into the positive temps with heavy load
the gpu heads one on a graphics card and the other on the load tester were holding around -85c after a vantage 3dmark bench.
i pulled it apart to check the capillary line feed to fine that one was a little longer than the other 2, this would explain why it couldn't hold load on the cpu head.
Second stage pressures are getting quiet high though with system all loaded, first stage isnt holding the load too well. THe condenser is too small :down: and the case cant fit a bigger condenser
Looks like this cascade might have to be turned into a single head cascade

such a shame, why not just have a dedicated cpu cascade + a second unit for gpus ??

kayl

that was the plan, wife would have liked to have just the one cooler in the games room.
At first ill just finish the cascade, then later next year make another 2Hp 2x gpu heads i think
then ln2 on gpus once i got things sorted heheeh

Need to look into sound proofing the case huh

Cant remember now last time i picked up the blow torch, but it felt really good to do it again, especially first build back being a cascade.
Heres a start to my final cascade...

kayl

unit together, just have to finish some insulation and final wiring and i can start to load test this babie

Does anyone know if kayl is still around frequently? I sent him a PM about getting mounting plates/enclosures for s1155 and s2011 for the Cascade and SS but havent heard back...

sorry mate, work away these days for 9 days, back for 5 days. Very busy with the new GF and racing. Still on the scenes phase change wise, benching not so much.
Just replied t your pm.
Did some more work on the cascade over the weekend, -108c idle and -103c load after a few tunning mods. Unit hit -117c after 10 mins no load, sure if i left it longer would hit -120c. When im back ill put the hood on the unit and finish the wiring and post some more pics
