What Colour Tubing? - Page 3

Redccm · 08-03-2010, 05:07 PM

Sorry, busy afternoon....the stuff I've got is 9.5mm/12.7mm which I think is 3/8"ID 5/8"OD. Didn't think we were allowed to post links to competitors websites or I'd have posted a link to the stuff I bought.

Using the stuff to watercool my current PC is my first attempt at watercooling so I can't compare the stiffness of mine to someone else's but I have no problems with bends.

Bought another 3m's of it for watercooling my server though which will be the project after the current one I'm doing.

Cheers Red, your tubing is 1/2" OD. I dont think Tygon do a 3/8" ID 5/8" OD, which is typical as thats what I really want. Sods law as they say. I have googled about all day and it seems no one makes Silver tubing in this size.

they do, do 3/8ID 5/8 OD but you have to order from Performace-PCs over in the US

, but they only sell black and clear tube

Thats the problem I want silver.

Just found out that Masterkleer have a silver hose which is the correct size. Only problem is trying to find it in the uk.

All this over the colour of some tubing.

I gave up with the silver tubing and went with the white in the end, anyway here are a few pics.

nice

where do the cpu tubes go? back in the back at the bottom?

Razor · 08-08-2010, 01:37 AM

Cheers Jair.

The cpu is connected to a Reserator XT.

I've always had a thing for a Black and White theme, Tuxedo style.

I've gone with black on this build though, the Crosshair IV wouldn't look right with white tubing.

Nice look on the tubing though.

Black and white tubing does look smart.
