Default Anyone Know What Reservoir This Is?

I saw this is some UK forum awhile back.

Since then, I am unable to find the link and can only provide a description for the "mystery reservoir".



It was one of those ones that fits into a 5 1/4 bay. The circular windowed type with mounting plate.

The one that made this one stand out was that it tiook up THREE 5 1/4 bays.


The forum was in a different language but I think I remember someone saying "aquagate" or something like that.



Anyone know anything?

EDIT: Couldn't have been an aquagate. That's some all in one system by coolermaster.

Thermaltake AquaBay M1 2U 5.25" Dual Reservoir / Flow Meter (CL-W0032) - FrozenCPU.com

or

Innovatek Fass-O-Matic Barrel Header Tank - Aluminum Color (500509) - FrozenCPU.com


ADD: Someone just pointed out something I missed. Three 5.25 bays? No idea. But if you find it again, definately post pictures.

Why would you want a resevoir that takes up 3 5 1/4 bays? seems like somewhat of a waste to me... givin my lil swiftech micro rez will last 4 times as long as it needs to between coolant swaps...

It's probably an Aqua computer aquatube. Aqua Computer Aquatube

The mounting plate is sold seperately, but yes, it would take up 3 bays with the plate. You could manage two bays without the large mounting plate. It can also install in the top of a case, a better alternative IMO.

Actually only two 5.25 unless you know of a new size. They're only 79mm outside diameter.

Actually, I think that this 3 5 1/4 (If it even exists) would help to tidy up and uniform the front a bit.

Maybe two of the dual 5 1/4 bay res's stacked on top of each other, followed by a coolermaster musketeer and then my VL lcd display.

IMHO, this would help to uniform the front and look much better than 6 random bay devices stacked on top of each other.
