Walked into Microcenter yesterday with the intention of upgrading my Main rig massively, and suddenly encountered a huge custom Water cooling section I had never noticed before.
Long story short for pretty cheap money (less than 250) I walked out of there with A bunch of compression fittings, 10 ft of tubing 3/8 1/2 inch, An AMD Raystorm XSPC 360 waterblock, a swiftech Res, a MCP355 Pump, and a MCR220-QP Extreme Duty Dual 120mm Radiator. Unfortunately after getting this home and taking measurements I wound up finding my HAF 912 nowhere near up to the task.
So Right now my build is kind of Frankensteining it, with most of the set up outside the computer.
On the bright side I filled, mounted, sealed, and am currently running the loop with no issues. My Temps never exceed 42C with 4.4 mild overclock in intel burn test. Probably the first time I've ever done anything with this computer properly the first time.
But help is what I seek. I need a case big enough for Two fairly large rads (I'm adding one more and am most likely going to cool the northbridge and the GTX670). Plus the best waterblock (universal or custom) for GPU within reason.
