    @Robbo99999 No problem.

    Only a pain in the butt the first go round. And when things broke down or had issues, but after that. It all runs pretty sound.

    Looking at your DT build a store bought water chiller can run that some what quietly. They are self contained with very very little maintenance. These are the same chillers used for in home fish tanks. Those can also be ran from outside one's home or in a closet with space.

    Isn't the fishtank cooler meant to cool water without a constant heat energy dumped inside the loop?


    So it'll cool the water, but not as quickly as your computer can put out heat.

    Not really sure what you're getting at since a water chiller is controlled by temps. And generally speaking....No one is trying to "freeze" their fish at 0 or -30C?

    I was wondering if the chiller could keep up if your computer is running a gaming session.
