I saw a pic of someones watercooling with coils inside the tube to stop the bubbles, dno if its necessary but it might help.

^i believe you are thinking about the spring like coils that go outside of a bend on a water cooling loop to prevent the tube from kinks.

braz · 09-10-2008, 09:22 PM

yea lol thats what I was thinking. All my bubbles/foam is pretty much gone! ive been adding a little more water every day, and now it wont go down anymore

lukas · 09-11-2008, 02:57 PM

nah im sure i saw a picture of some guys watercooling with a wire going inside the tube, i might be wrong tho.

That serves the same purpose but has been abandoned for the most part. It adds turbulence and restriction to the flow of water which in turn negatively affect it's cooling performance.

It does nothing to prevent bubbles... /sigh

Ahh ok my bad.

braz · 09-11-2008, 07:40 PM
