Default How much does it cost to cool a CPU only?

How much is it for a good setup just to cool a CPU?

Do you want to build it yourself or buy a prebuilt system?

I was thinking more for the future, but build it myself.

Total $165

Note this is a high-end build, there are cheaper parts.

If you can get it used, around 100-150 bucks including shipping.

I got a setup for cpu and gpu with dual mcr220 radiators for 180 shipped. (used components)

And reaper, you forgot the pump and reservoir. (I prefer reservoirs to T lines. Not a big difference though.)

Reservoirs are only good if you mount them outside the case away from any exhaust fans. Otherwise T-Lines are better.

Something like this would make a real good OC'ing rig..

CPU Block...I like the Stinger all metal blocks, check out his D-Max...Stinger

For a commercial block I think the Fuzion is about the best...FuZion

I'd use a back-plate with them..Dtek FuZion Intel 775 Pro-Mount set

Pump...D-5

Rad...At least a 240 a 360 would be better..240 GTX..The BIX is cheaper and does well with 100+ cfm fans and a Bonnie heater-core is still a real good option...BIX 240

Tubing...I like this on 1/2" barbs it compact fits the barbs tighter and is a little more compact and will flow about as well as the full size stuff...7/16x5/8"

This for full size...1/2x3/4"

Res or t-line...I like a bay res when I'm using a case because it bleeds really fast....5 1/4" Bay Res

Clamps or zip-ties...


Stuff you might like to read, I'll leave you my cleaning and set-up PDF also, be sure to read all the stickies here also they will answer a lot of your questions...Take you time picking out parts and you will save some $$, decide what is best for your situation, whether your looking for max OC or just something a little better then a HSF,you can look in the for sale section and find good used gear also...

This is all good advice, and that list that ira-k posted is pretty much the standard loop suggested on the boards.

One more thing, and you probably already know this, but WC in particular is one area where it is better to go with quality parts to begin with then to have to upgrade later.
