Hi and welcome (back ;))
Great to see that you are back in business again and those dyes look absolutely the mutt's nuts! I can't see exactly what is in the makeup but is there any problem of clogging the fine cooling matrices on some blocks ?
-
Brilliant video, I think I'm hooked and may build one
-
Nice to see you back jannie!
The Mountain Mods Aurora is a very nice case but the video was only for the coolant jannie! Did look the business though didn't it. I would want to know a bit more about it and if they would like I will even review it for the forum. I shall have to have a word with the owner. ;)
-
hello.
There is no blocking if you use the correct one. The Aurora + is for CPU restrictive blocks, the Aurora is for none restrictive blocks.
The life time of the coolant though is only six months before it will need changing out again.
The coolant is 2 /3c above water in delta temp comparisons (confirmed) via independent testers.
-
Hi
Well it certainly sounds good and as long as it doesn't block because that was my main concern after several that I have tried in the past it seems to have been considered. The Delta T is very impressive too.

We expect the odd person to say OMG is blocked because they have gone for the cheaper options. We have done losts of testing and only found it blocks if you use a In-Line filter (which isnt surprising) or you use a All in one pump / res combo were the pump is fully submerged in the Res like the XSPC ones. we don't recommend the fluids to a new user to water cooling as it needs to be changed out ever 6 months.
We don't place this liquid like any other on the market and its main purpose is for looks and the e-peen factor. :)
Its a side step in a different direction to all other makers of pre-mix fluids who make bold claims. We don't make them we just say what it is hehe.
-
I can see that I am going to have to try it then and see for myself. Certainly looks cool and if it does the business as you say it should be good. What outlets are you planning to use or will it be direct from you ?
Can you let us know when you are releasing it for certain please ?

We are releasing it in NOv how ever i cannot say wich out lets as this will be probably against your rules. It will be out in the UK though first. Most re-sellers that sell "Mayhem's" will probably have this in stock.
-
Thanks Mick, I have just asked my normal supplier about them stocking it. ;)
-
Well we have done it
We can now colour match any mother board maker. Weve been working off pictures of gigabyte to try and colour match you boards as we don't have a newer board here to play with (funds all spent on making the products).
With the new pastel range wich we will be releasing in Nov 2011 along with the Aurora range we should now be able to meet requirements to be able to offer all customer's colour matched liquids to there actual mother boards :) (thats of course providing we can match to pictures as we cannot afford MBs all the time lol)
Pics below of some exp of the Pastel range of liquids and just a few of the colours we can do.

The orange Two different types will be down at the LITS Show in London and i think in total we will have liquids in 4 different PCS.
This is quite exciting for Mayhem's as now with this ability to colour match and lots of development work from my self Modding of PCs should become more interesting and personalising you system can now hit a new level.
We are all so working on UV version of these and they produce a subtle glow under UV Light.

-

Gigabyte Colour Matched fluid from mayhem's
-
Neat, but you just wait until the wife finds out where her custard has gone! ;D
-
Well I know i wont be matching any other boards apart from gigabyte so if you have any spare GA-EX58-UD5P boards lying around i could do with a cheap one. Esp since our test rig died the other day and some crappy maker of boards wont RMA it back were a little stuck. If you did that we would rename the liquid orange as Gigabyte orange ;) as a thank you :) ...

Hi Mick,
Can't help personally I'm afraid as I can't even get a board myself but you could try contacting runn3R Gigabyte Forum Administrator. Only trouble is Gigabyte boards are black now gone is the orange and blue of past years!

thks i have sent him a pm but thats a shame you moving to black. :) Loved the orange boards
-
Not all of our boards have black PCB. There are still some with blue PCB.
And there are some with green slots and black PCB, for example G1.Sniper2, so you can use green coolant there.
-
Yes quite right runn3R! Maybe Mick could arrange to rename all his colours after Gigabyte. ;D

Actually due to gigabyte generosity we have re named the orange to gigabyte orange (colour matched it). I just finished matching the sniper Board (green) you have sent me and we may be renaming that to gigabyte green. Ive got close up pics of all you boards from the LITS.
Could do with a GPU hahah for testing the new fluids (we need some thing to generate lots of heat) we have.. which you will love that's a guarantee. If the new liquids work out and if they work they way im aiming for them to work people will defo go nuts over them.
Vid below of a very early test sample ->

Hey don't get greedy Mick! You will be lucky anyway trying for a graphics card. ::) How is the new range going ?

Lol not being greedy just ran out of dev money now hehe.
The new Pastel range and Aurora range are all made up. Aurora will be out on the 1st pastel around about the 3rd.
Were all so working on thermodynamics + Coolant (hence why we needs GPU to generate lots of heat) in a real world environment. what we have atm doesn't create enough heat to cover the whole scope were aiming at temperature wise. Ive done the labs test just need real world testing now :).
Next week ill start putting together the gigabyte board we have and the colour matched liquids to show you all what it looks like. Just haven't had time this week due to me doing all the gear for the release and my partner had me working my butt off lol.
Once we get this release out the way i can then spend more time of building the pc up and modifying it more.
-
Will be interested to see the end product and don't forget to send a few samples my way please ;)
-
This is some quick shots of the pastel range.
The green looks a little out on photos but in life is matched to the MB depending on lighting

On real slow connection and the pics are not the best best with lighting.
-
They are looking pretty good to be fair Mick. I see what you measn about the green but it is close even with the lighting. Looks great in that case!
-
thks. It needs a lot more work just not had the time. Bleeding that res took over 3 hours and its still not perfect. Managed to get the 950 to 4.6 Ghz though which im pleased with. Im going to swap over the fans and rads at some point as i think i should be able to push it harder.
-
Don't tell me about bleeding reservoirs! You can take that any way you want! ;) I have spent many hours trying to get the air out of some systems.
-
With normal bay res, tube res it takes me about 20min max. this thing. OMG its like trying to get blood out of a stone getting air into this res. Think im going to add t lines to the roof with this.
