Hi guys (and girls?),
I'm thinking of jumping on the water cooling bandwagon, after building three of my PCs I think it's about time! Those experienced in it can you advise on what I would need to cool... lets see...
Giving large leeway on the components:
150W TDP CPU
35W TDP NB
2x 200W TDP GFX cards
So in total 585W TDP to be cooled (maximum, at stock TDP figures come out at roughly 460). That's a heavily overclocked Q6600, X38 chipset using DDR2, and 2x 4870. Would it be wise to have two loops? Perhaps a bay mounted radiator for CPU + NB loop, and a 120.3 rad at the top of the case fuelling the two graphics cards loop?
I've never done any water cooling before so i've no idea if that's practical or what. Please advise :>.
PS. that same MSI "ready for PC2008" ad has been showing for like half a year or something now.
