As the title shares, I have a TJ-08E that I'm thinking of trying water on. Have a nice Phobya 180/200mm radiator picked up in trade a while ago. Now with the new swiftech apogee drive 2 I think there is a block / pump I want to try. That just leaves me with a question about a reservoir.
Here are my possible directions - my 5 1/4's are used btw
1) switech micro res (mounted up by drive bays likely)
2) for about $15 more mount a MCR120 Res Radiator / Reservoir in the rear 120mm
(certainly would add more cooling to the loop, but has fixed 3/8 barbs)
3) just do a t-line with a fill-plug or similar.
Did I miss something? Another idea?
Or, which of the three above would make most sense to you?
Currently cooling a 2500k, might add a GPU in the future, depending.
Thanks for any thoughts. Hoping to order tomorrow (June 17th) to take advantage of a father's day sale.
Bonus Question: the Phobya radiator has a 180mm plate and a 200/220mm plate for mounting fans. I'm going to use the 180mm to match it to the AP 180mm in the front of the TJ-08E. If I wanted to do a push-pull, anyone have a recommendation for a fairly quiet / reasonable cost fan for the 200/220mm plate? Was thinking of even a cheap-ish 200mm CM just to help with airflow. Thanks.
