Experimental radiator \build log!!!

[toolmaker_03]

well here are the radiators, my problem is the configuration of them, simply too many possibilities, so if you could find the time to give your opinions, I would really appreciate it.
I also need advice on a type of shroud for the radiators, the purpose is to inshore good air flow through the radiator.
and lastly how to attach the fans to the radiators?



all advice is welcome and thank you

ok so I have a blank HHD drive that could be installed and you think that I might be able to get win7 to VM win98 or 95 if possible it runs better on 95 if we can get it to work, if so I will have some questions when I get there after it is built. I have drivers for win98 but 95 might be a issue, but I will search for compatible drivers there are geeks like me out there so they most likely they do exist. if I have to I can always write the darn things myself by modifying some of the ones I have now for the 95 OS, but anyway think you for the idea, I like it.

Depending on what version of Win7 you have, you can run a virtual machine from the OS.

 

[toolmaker_03]

ok so with one do i need? i can get it!

 

[Lutfij]

if mem serves me, its from Home Premium onwards... :/

 

[rubix_1011]

There are also other software options that will allow you to run a virtual machine...just make sure you are getting legit software and ensure you aren't violating any licensing/copyright agreements.

 

[toolmaker_03]

cool i have home premium now so no need to upgrade the OS

@rubix_1011 I would never dare to such a thing I wouldn't even know how to (or possibly wouldn't know even if I were doing such a thing) so it's no problem, right? :lol:

 

[toolmaker_03]

ok so here is the wiring mess i have right now at least it won't get much worse than this

 

[Lutfij]

oooh more raddage! i see more rads!

 

[toolmaker_03]

yea 2 240's and 2 360's on the main loop and the exp rads 2 240's are the second loop for the smaller stuff.
gives me a chance to test and see what they can do without worring about temps.

 

[Lutfij]

worrying about temps - you could cool your whole house with that much raddage - J/K :lol:

 

[Motopsychojdn]

I'll go easy on the wires for now, its still W.i.p.
but yes this is shaping up nicely, you getting that 'Almost done' buzz yet?

Moto

 

[toolmaker_03]

well I don't know? I have been up for two days now working on it haven't had time to be buzzed


so I work more to get more rads and I work more to get more rads really I am not going in circles here

The pictures you're posting in this thread are way too large, does the words Website Friendly mean anything to you?

THG uses a 450 pixel width .png in all their reviews they do it like that for all those without a high speed connection, if you really want to get your points across you need to do it so everyone can view it, any poor soul on a dial up connection could watch a football game waiting for your pictures to fully load.

If you'll click on my cooling fan roundup sig link those pictures are all 450 pixel width at 120 DPI .png (Portable Network Graphic), how long do you think it would take to load my roundup if my pictures were the size yours are.

We all love pictures but you need to take more responsibility in posting yours, if you want to post a large view, do it as a click able link and it won't slow down the entire page loading. Ry

 

[Lutfij]

photobucket gives you the advantage of having decent sized images and yet not bog the thread down.

And here i thought my server was acting up due to the weather.

any poor soul on a dial up connection could watch a football game waiting for your pictures to fully load.

I'd watch an old movie for a few minutes until the thread would load 😛

 

[4Ryan6]

It's not what your camera can do, it's what you can do with your camera!

 

[Lutfij]

aye, that be a nice sig!

 

[4Ryan6]

:lol: You can have it! Ry

 

[4Ryan6]

Here's another; You need to do it, so everyone can view it! Ry

i like the first one better. BTW, side tracking - whats with the retired moderator business?

Actually I just got sick of doing it, I joined THGF to help people, and the more moderating needs the less time I had to help others.

I was a moderator for 4 years I've given enough of my free time to THGF and there are plenty of moderators to cover THGF now, so I asked to be put out to pasture! :lol:

Any Hoooooo, I'm actually enjoying my time at THGF again, compared to dreading it.

Moderating is a thankless job, time consuming, it's a necessary need, but completely voluntary, I've served my time, and I'm done with it!

No Regrets!

I wish the absolutely best!, to all those still doing it! Ry

 

[Lutfij]

pasture - moooooooooo, farm fresh meat+milk ! 😀

 

[4Ryan6]

Mooooooooving On :lol:

Have you seen Prometheus Yet?

 

[Lutfij]

speaking of movies, have you seen The Raid Redemption?

ok so here is where I become stupid, I did not know that type of stuff because that is not the type of thing I normally deal with I know how to build a network but never really considered how well or how much is going across it but I do see your point so how do I fix it? keep in mind I did not know what image shack was or how to use it 3 months ago so be gentle with your explanation please

No, is it good? Spoil it for me! I owe you one! Ry
