t3hf4ll0ut Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 The parts were easy to get, sure enough. A kind man helped me get what I need, and I asked plenty of questions. 5 hours later, I have my parts, ready to build... er... sorta. I got a water cooling system, rather then fans. I thought it couldn't be TOO hard. But of course I was wrong. I got a ThermalTake Bigwater 760is, and I finished installing the tubes, and waterblock. The vague instruction manual happens to explain 3/4 of what needs to be done. The good part: I have a ThermalTake Armor case, which is what the instruction manual uses as reference. So, if someone would be kind to tell what the hell I'm supposed to do, then that would be nice! I don't know how to install the radiator, which goes in the front of my case.

Thor. Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Oh man, you got give some benchmarks when your done :biggrin: I know how hard it is to put together a water cooling unit, thats why i stick to fans. I hope everything goes well :biggrin: Note make sure to change the distilled water once in awhile, it can get dirty in those tubes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3hf4ll0ut Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 Alright, I'm moving at a faster pace. The hard parts are done with, now all I need to do is install the mother board(has rest of the stuff on it), video card, memory, and that looks to be about it. Can't wait to show it off! :) But, there is still a problem. When I hook up the PSU, and all is good, I turn it on and nothing happens? Is it a dud?

Thor. Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Hmm your power supply? what wattage did you get? Also check your connectors tighten them up, you know see if any are loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3hf4ll0ut Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 I got a 700 watt, which is plenty. But a question; Does the PSU need to be hooked up to the motherboard for it to do anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor. Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I think anything that comes with a six or 8 pin connector needs to be hooked up to the psu :biggrin: if not it won't work. sorry for my sarcasm :biggrin: I sent you a pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
