    Corsair Water Cooling System - Unpacking System Components


    (Page 3 of 12 )

    Here is the system with all the components.

    It came complete with the CPU block and clamp for our P4 478, RADBOX, water reservoir, pump, cooling liquid, 6ft tubing, and more than enough hardware to complete the project.

    Right away, I would like to note that if you purchased this system, make sure you have a printer or a second PC available. The quick-start guide that comes in the box is completely insufficient to complete the installation. Intentionally so, it tells you to consult with the installation manual on CD throughout each step. My guess is that Corsair meant for this manual to be printed out and for the quick-start guide to serve as pictorial reference. Whichever way you are going to do it, do not start the installation until you have the CD guide accessible (printed or on a PC nearby). Otherwise you might end up scratching your head with your PC taken apart and no installation manual handy.

    We had a second computer (laptop) while doing the project, so we managed to save a few trees by keeping the manual on CD.
