Hi, i need help.
im trying to figure out how to cool my mobo i have a 780i board from evga.
ive been looking at the frozen cpu site and they have a block for nb and a block for sb, i was thinking if i get them like that and throw a dual 120mm rad on it will it be able to give me much greater temps then will air.
thanx a head of time.
but this is what my set up looks like now, im thinkng of doing that and then a cpu later down the road

Hey Rushmore1205, sorry I cant help with your question but i did notice that you have the CPU cooler i was looking at buying. Just wondering if they are any good?
Liquid cooling your chipset and nothing else would be a waste of money. End of story.

Not being rude, but that's the fact. If you're going to build a loop, you don't just put it on the least necessary component. Put the CPU under water at the beginning, or wait till you're ready to do that to build your loop.

Also you shouldn't expect wonders, you're getting near the max that your q6600 will handle daily anyway. You're probably already at 1.48-1.50V or so right?

PS: Very nice setup you have there, looks VERY good.
as iquark said, do the CPU too or it wont be worth your money.

that is one of the best computer coolers i have owned in my opion, its keeps the temps great at 36 and never goes above 42.
i mean i do have it a nice case, but all the other ones i had where in very similar setups so yeah this thing is great
