    Water Cooling

    Im getting a Thermal Take BigWater water cooling kit and then im gunna get like 5 extra blocks for diffrent things.

    Whats im wonderin is caz there are so many by the end of the chain will the water be so warm that it doesnt help that last few items on the chain?

    Theres no room for a second raidator.

    I was thinking to split the chain like this:
    Code:
                     Out              In
                    [[[[[Raidator]]]]]]
                      |                 |
                     /\                /\
                    | |               | |
                    |  \_(blocks)_/  |
                    |                    |
                    \___(blocks)___/
    So theres to chains and each might have 3 blocks on it each.

    Is something like that nessary or does the liquid like not heat up at all so i can just have one big chain:

    Code:
                     Out              In
                    [[[[[Raidator]]]]]]
                      |                 |
                      |                 |
                      |                 |
                      \__(blocks)__/

    ok, I hate to be the one to tell you this but the pump in that kit isnt the best... Especialy if you plan to add more blocks... If you wish to use all thoes blocks your gona need a better pump...

    Yup! You'll need a very decent pump for that. Plus you'll also need to make sure your rad can dissipate enough heat to keep the water cool enough.

    water has a high heat capacity, so there isn't much difference in temperature between the start and end of the loop... you'll need a better pump though... but do you really need 5 waterblocks?

    Get a real kit not a kiddies kit. Go to over-clock.co.uk and use their kit builder to customise a kit for you

    The pump on the TT will never cope with 5 extra blocks!

    How big is your budget?
