Water-cooled raspberry pi?!?!
Some of you might think “awesome!”, others may think “why bother?” I did it for several reasons:
- Because I can!
- It looks cool on my desk
- I want to overclock it so that I have the fastest raspberry pi on the internet! (also falls into “Because I can!”

Absolutely gorgeous, will be really awesome if filled with a flurescent red liquid.
Whoever says that there is no need for such a thing is being ridiculous, these projects are simply just to prove something can be done, and you my friend, have done it well!
Nice build. I like how you made it look kind of like the T virus containers from Resident Evil.

Thanks for the compliments! I agree about the fluoro red coolant, that would probably look awesome!
Yeah it does look like a T-Virus vessel! good spot!
Hi I love this!!!!! Where can I find those water cooling blocks?? Anyone?? Thank you!!!!
Author
Hi Morgan, thanks for the feedback! I bought the blocks from alphacool.com they are called MCX One
http://www.alphacool.com/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=mcx%20one&
But they can be made REALLY easily at home too with nothing but a drill and some soldering skills.. I have made several custom water cooling blocks for things like my 3D printer since this project.
Whats the maximum speed u achieved with this watercooling solution?
Don’t mean to brink up an old thread but what might be the pump you are using looks a lot better than ones I found on net so far
Thanks

This really is beautiful. How high did you get with the oc?
Btw: where did you get this T Virus tube?
Author
Thanks! I have clocked it to 2250MHz and it ran for a few minutes but became unstable. I’d say 1.5GHz is the limit for stable operation.
I got the T Virus tube from frozencpu.com, its a FrozenQ Liquid Fusion Reservoir
How did you attach the waterblocks to the components? What about the tubes to the waterblocks?
