Alright, first time I'm ever asking for advice. I rarely ask but I don't want to spend my money on crap water cooling components. Basically I'll just be cooling the CPU for now and these are the parts I've considered getting.
This 5.25" Res
Chilled PC - Watercooling made easy, Over 400 products in stock
This CPU Block
Chilled PC - Watercooling made easy, Over 400 products in stock
This 2x120 Rad
Computer hardware and software at amazing prices, available online from Scan Computers UK
I think the XSPC black res would look cool under my dvd drive on my soon to be Antec 1200.
Tygon 1/2" tubing, I don't really know how long to get it.
2L of Feser Acid Green Coolant (2L too much? Res + 2x120 Rad)
I'm just undecided on the pump. I was thinking of getting a Laing DDC with an XSPC plexi top resevoir but for that price I can just buy a Laing D5 and save some money.
Which would you guys advise?
As for barbs I'm getting Danger Den 1/2" Fat Boy ones but I heard that their O-Rings squash out if you over tighten them. Does it really matter what brand of 1/2" barbs I get or does it affect performance?
CPU's a Q6600 so I'm guessing if I use a low pump it won't cool it well. But if I'm wrong correct me :)
Would I need a shroud or is it not needed. I was thinking of getting a 120 size rad for putting on the side panel of the case. Looky
Or would it be better to get a 2x120 size rad and place it on the back here
Cheers for any help on this.
