My Gecko G203V heat sink set up

[Grebbo]

Go the Gecko's! From your pictures it looks like you are using a cnc4pc BOB is that a C1G board? I have seen a couple being used but never used it myself, I'm curently running the younger brother of this board (C10) with no hassles but I do like yours!

Yes that is a C1G board and it works well. I've added a bit since the pictures. I have a relay card from CNC4PC now that tells my torch to flame on.

Well I guess that I will have to bite the bullet and get a relay board as well, I like the C5 board that they have mostly because its solid state and it has an RJ45 connection

I like your setup for the geckos Grebbo. That should work very well.

I am in the process of milling out some copper to make my own liquid cooling system for the 4 Geckos 203v's I have. I have some old PC parts with a liquid system so I might as well use them.

I'll post some pics when I get it done. I'm waiting on my onsrud acrylic bit to cut my top half.

Wow! that sounds Interesting, would not mind seeing some pictures when you are done. Its probably an overkill but I for one enjoy putting this stuff together as much as making stuff with the machine!! Is this liquid cooling one of the “stem pipe” systems? Or will it have a radiator and heat exchanger?

Grebbo.

It will have a radiator that has a 120mm fan on both sides. Pretty much the same as your setup with the fans, with one on both sides blowing the same way.

It will be similar to this one below. I hope it turns out as well as this one, but copper. I will not be adding the "fingers" sticking up, but will have a clean channel for the liquid to flow. I'm going to try and make one block for all four geckos, but I will use individual channels using seperator blocks from the pump to the radiator.

These will be using 1/4" connectors, there simply isn't enough heat from the geckos to justify the high flow rate that I use on the PCs I use for gaming, etc. Afterall, this is a hoby to me, so I might as well make something fun.

Well that makes more sense seeing this picture, hope to see your heat exchanger when its finished! It should look and work like a treat! Good luck with your build!
