My DS Extreme 3 arrived last night and I have to say I'm extremely impressed with the build quality. Far better build than any of the computers I bought from the Alien and I bought my first Alien shortly after they started building computers. Even at the height of their builds (they've really gone downhill the last 8 or so years) they couldn't compare to the DS build quality.

After I finish backing up all my files on my old puter, I'll be plugging in the DS today. Cant wait to see how it runs.

Now here is my question. This is my first LC (Stage 1 H2O) machine and I'm kind of surprised that DS does not include a instructional sheet to show how to check and maintain the LC or at least have a video up showing this procedure.

Anyone care to enlighten me?
And please don't say "check the reservoir and add water", there was no paperwork showing the LC components.

Thanks

the asetek is not as strong as a real LC system, its also different then a LC system, with asetek there is no maintenance, so there is nothing for you to check.

Thanks DST4ME. That would explain why I don't see any type of reservoir.

Does this LC system work as well or better than a good air cooling device?
