Hey pirate

Rick is actually wrong this time. Sorry bud.

I wouldnt recommend any mods to the Domino. The few people that Ive seen mod a Domino have broke it. The tubes do not like to come off without ruining the barbs on the RAD.

I have taken 1 apart myself and would have to say that even if your extremely careful and know what your doing the chances of ruining it are very high.


Thanks for the correction You...If that be the case, why not just lengthen the tubes by using some inline splices?

There is a way to do most anything...

Pirate,

Yeah youeffsee is right. The Domino uses FEP tubing which is almost impossible to modify. You might be able to cut into the tubing though and use those barbs to extend the tubing. I recommend using Norprene tubing to lengthen the hose if this it what you chose to do. I don't think it is a great idea though. I can sell you a 120mm or 240mm rad, tubing, coolant, CPU water block, clamps and you could create your own loop. Whatever you would like to do.

yeah idealy id love to make my own loop, ive done enough looking into it im sure it would be the best way to do it, but i work in the auto industry and if the states is anything like canada im sure you all know, theres very little money to be had in it right now, so im trying to be very cost effective, i want to get the rad outside of my box and see if i cant trim some heat away but stickin the rad outside or in a bar fridge or something, cause ive noticed that cpu temp will only get so much higher then coolant temp with these rigs so if i can just keep the coolant temp down, im good to go

being a mechanic i have access to mainly free scrap parts (old radiators from cars and the like would make a great computer cooler, if only i could find one small enough to be practical )

this little upgrade i want to do is sort of the first step in what might be many if i ever find the right parts and the time, i cant get a CPU block from a car, but i can get hoses, resivoirs, pumps, rads and the like, just need the right combination to come by

hell if i get really bored i was going to weld a case to look like the hood of a car, but thats just alot of work and time that i dont have now
