Ok, so here is my plan so far for my i5-3570k build...

Case: Corsair 650D
Pump: Swiftech MPC-35B or Swiftech MPC-35X
Res: XSPC dual bay
Rad: Swiftech MCR220-XP
CPU block: Swiftech Apogee HD
Fans: Scythe Gentle Typhoon (2 or 4, not sure what RPM)
Tubing: PrimoFlex Pro LRT Black or Clear
Coolant: Distilled water with or without blue Mayhems dye

Really liking the Swiftech stuff from the reviews I've been reading. The only thing really left to decide is if I should get black tubing or clear with some blue Mayhems dye. I will research that more tomorrow. Any suggestions?

I'm not knocking on Mayhem's Dyes as I would buy them myself based on his reputation alone, but if you spill dye it stains. If you design your loop right with a good clean drain spot you should be OK with a dye and clear tubing. Otherwise go buy the color tubing you want.

Ok, thanks. I haven't quite decided where to put my drain port yet so I'll take that into consideration. I Really just need a pale blue to sort of match the Asus z77 mobo and Corsair Vengeance blue colour.

Any sort of blue lighting in the case will make the heatsinks match primochill blue uv tubes. I'm running the raystorm, and 2 blue LED fans, and they make the tubing and heatsinks match in the light. I am not running any UV lights in my case though, just the blue LED light emitted from the raystorm and fans.

Hope that helps ya a bit smile.gif

If you have any questions of "this pump vs that pump" or "this block" vs "this other block" use the forums search or even Google " D5 vs DDC"( types of pumps) will turn up something in this forum or one of the big sites. Search is your friend. I would buy search a drink if I ever met them.
