My idea here is to get this thing silent by separating the noise into 2 boxes and dealing with the noise separately.
Alright so here are the components I'll be trying to make silent. I know it's not recommended to try and silent dual video cards but I'm looking for a challenge here.
CPU: Intel Core i7-2700K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: Asus P8Z77-V DELUXE ATX LGA1155 Motherboard
Memory: Samsung 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Memory: Samsung 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Storage: Crucial M4 256GB 2.5" Solid State Disk
Video Card: Asus Radeon HD 7970 3GB Video Card (CrossFire)
Video Card: Asus Radeon HD 7970 3GB Video Card (CrossFire)
Power Supply: SeaSonic X Series 850W 80 PLUS Gold Certified ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply
Optical Drive: Asus BC-12B1ST/BLK/B/AS Blu-Ray Reader, DVD/CD Writer
Next up is the case and the separate water cooling enclosure.
Case: Fractal Design Define R4 (Black Pearl) ATX Mid Tower Case
I chose the R4 because it is packed with sound dampening stuff and it looks pretty.
As for the separate enclosure I don't even know where to start. I'd really appreciate the help on this one.
This is my first time setting up a water cooled pc so I'm not sure what I need or how much I need.
Please tell me if I'm missing something or if you think what I've got won't work for my setup.
Radiator: 1x 2x RX360
GPU Waterblock: 2x 7970 Waterblock
CPU Waterblock: 1x Coper RayStorm Waterblock
Pump and Reservoir: 1x Dual 750lph Bay Pump Reservoir V4
Pump: MCP 655
Reservoir: ?
I don't know if this is enough pump or enough Radiator power to cool this. Input please!
What do you guys think?
