Hi all.
I'm moving my sig rig into a HAF932 from the CM690, and I'm looking to do a few upgrades, cooling being a big one. The V8 has worked fine for me, but the more I think about it, the more I want to get away from air cooling.
So, that said... I've been digging around online looking at parts. I understand the concepts behind watercooling, and have read some of the stickied threads, but I was hoping some of you could possible fill in the blanks.
First, I'll throw out what I've been able to piece together.. and let you guys dismantle it and tell me what's better than what I've picked out myself.
I'm looking at Dangerden/FrozenCPU:
X-Flow Stealth GTS 360 Black Ice Radiator (or...?)
Laing DD12V-D5 Pump (how would the MCP 355/655 compare)
DD-GTX285 Version 2 (or Swiftech Komodo?)
Heatkiller Rev 3 (once it's available again)
DD Rad-Reservoir (recommendations welcomed here...)
1/2" tubing + clamps + anything else I'm forgetting.
I may eventually grab a second 285SC for sli instead of falling into the fermi-induced-hardware-coma that has claimed a good number of victims... so I'd rather pick up something now that can hopefully cool the CPU and possibly 2 GPU's.
Now, proceed to dismantle and destroy my noobish list.
