^^ +1, I liked the interior than exterior! But nonetheless exterior is amazing!

NO, I havent painted the radiator, that was done by radiator maker. I dont think painting the radiator can affect the heat dissipation because the contact area, where copper fins and pipes touches each other, cant be painted. However I m not sure about this, because I never tried non painted...

@blackperl, Yeah I remember u buddy! :). It cost me about Rs.3500 for all! ( copper base plate, soldering charges, pump, radiator ( maruti VAN ) and goodies ). Its the 1st time I m making this, so some parts were totally useless and have wasted money on it but, its still cheaper than ready made...

Update : Finally, I have got the radiator! I have given the right side panel of my case to the radiator maker to attach the radiator with it. I m gonna get back the panel with radiator today morning :). Beside it , in spare time I have lapped my waterblock! pics below. I havent lapped it...

Have you checked ur voltages once set on auto? I think it would be somewhat high , check it with CPU-z. my mobo. set it to 1.5xx V once I tested on auto voltage with my Q9450 :O. So better manually set the voltage, you can search forums for Q6600 OC results and check the Voltage value for...

yup yup, I m trying hard to make my own radiator now a days. Daily visiting local radiator makers to make my own, even have given "blueprint" ( of thermochill 120.3 ) to them, one of them was a nice guy and took interest in my project, but He said it will cost a lot ( but less than original...

Inside of the block? Its all copper there.

okey, here we go, Hey its not looking that bad as its shown in images. my w705 camera is very poor and bad lighting effect. and its pure copper block so it get oxidized. top view the white material around soldered parts is silver. used as filler material for soldering. with acrylic...

@Gannu, My waterblock is ready! I took all parts ( copper plate, copper tube and 2 brass nipples ) to nearby steel-works workshop. He did good job (could be better ) with soldering. He used silver as filler material to join copper-copper and brass-copper. I m currently testing it for leakage (...

have almost made my own waterblock, will add pictures soon when I will finalize soldering on it. It wont look that cool because gas welding messed the surface of it. I dont want to mess up copper base plate with gas welding, so I m finding other way to solder copper. anyone knows how to solder...
