So I shouldn't be surprised that this thing seems to be super efficient and has more capacity than I can throw at it with my current set up.
Probably overkill... but it was fun :handgestures-thumbupleft:

You've just been smart and planned ahead for a possible 6" still upgrade. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

The solid lines are something I've always wanted to do and now I have seen yours you've ignited something inside for me to get started!
The RC, all I can say is wow! Can't wait for your next posts!
A&O wrote:Very interesting. Do you find an advantage soldering the cooling tube plate to the outside of the PC pipe. I also noticed reading back through the thread you have done the same with the RC. This is a method I have not seen in other builds, all the ones I have read so far, people solder the cooling pipe plate to the inside of the pipe. Would love to hear your theory with the method you built.

I love the 2" SG's, IMO they look better than 3" or 4" on a 4" column.
