Well - for a start I think 1500$ is a bit overspending it, but its not my money so not my place to tell you what to do with it. However, if you are willing to consider going with "budget" setup that should cool approx as good for quarter of the price, then chek out my buildlog, the component list is in the first post, it's ~360 euros altogehter. 9x120 mm radiator, couple of small pumps and res, couple of blocks .. http://www.overclock.net/t/1262095/soliton-dispenser-an-atx-portable-watercooled-case-with-external-9x120mm-rad Ofc with full blocks for GFX cards it would cost a bit more, I'm just saying that good performance can be had for a lot cheaper, if that's one of the design goals.

ROFL

thats like asking "how can you spend $35,000 for a car when you can get near same the performance for $100,000" it just doesnt make any sense.

In my opinion it's more like buying the 35 000 $ car for 100 000 $ wink.gif Considering, that for example, in reality the effect between having Nova 1080 radiator and Supervova 1260 radiator the water temperature difference is approx 0.5C while the price difference is double. For the price (if we use the overall system price as indicator) in turn two 1080 radiators outperform the 1260 for the same price, although the water delta difference is again around degree in real world scenarios. There are some offering out there aimed at guy who use only the price as indicator how "good" the thing is and these offerings are specifically set up to release the pressure in these wallets.

Although this is a bit off topic in this thread I must admit. Spending grand on a loop is not THAT unthinkable if look is of importance and one wants to stay inside the case with rads while pursuing the best performance he can get.

i was sketching and so i was wondering, can a 360+240 rad when combined equal one 600mm rad? might be stupid, but there isnt any stupid questions, just stupid ideas. also if that is possible, the loop is:

360>240>MCP655>Reservoir>VRM Inlet>VRM Outlet>CPU Inlet>CPU Outlet>Bridge Inlet>Bridge Outlet>X79 block inlet>X79 block outlet>360

hope this will work, and if it does work where should i put the QDC? i already gathered the amount of fittings (45,90 degrees etc) but just need specific info on QDC's. also an amount and where to place it will be very helpful. i will try to put a sketch of the loop i just described also

pics as i promised:
450
this one looked really messy in terms of tubing so i improved:
450

if it works, i just need some quantity and placement info on the QDC's and then ordering time biggrin.gif

Final change, will probably go with a Switch 810 Gunmetal, as my G19 broke down and i'm planning on the Blackwidow ultimate. I know, for most $140 out of $5000 isnt a big deal, but when parents are funding, you have to be on the edge biggrin.gif but i dont think the Switch would be a bad replacement, and it looks like it has more options for watercooling but def looks uglier compared to a Cosmos 2.

OP, I hear you on the price. I'm doing my first loop at the end of this month and all of my parts easily top $1500. The problem for me is that I'm really much more concerned about aesthetics than I am ultimate cooling. I also got a new TJ11 that was far from cheap but I want this build to be a show piece so little expense has been spared. Hell, I have over $250 worth of bitspower fittings alone! Add in a couple of black ice rads, d5 with pump top and mod kit, blocks for mobo/2 x 7970's/CPU, NB PK-3's all around ($25 a piece!) and the price is eye-watering. But you gotta pay to play... thumb.gif

how and why do you have fittings over $250? mine are like (lol) around $220 but it includes normal fittings, angled fittings. oh and also, im going with XSPC reservoir with D5 as the RP-452X2 I wanted (for looks) and so im buying the XSPC D5 black reservoir. i know they make cheap stuff but all the other bay res are either fugly or too expensive or out of stock. this has everything, it looks decent, not expensive (in its category at least ) and is in stock atm.
