Hi there,
I have a problem getting all my parts for the water cooling setup.
I have obtained the following:
CPU block - EK Supreme HF Plexi
Chipset Block - Swiftech MCW30
Res - Swiftech Micro V2
Rad - Black Ice GT 240
I'm on the hunt for pump but to no avail - i could get EK Water Pump EK-DCP 2.2 as is the only available in stores for now.
The question are:
1) Whether only with this rad will i be able to cool my system in the sig or i should look for another 120 to add or replace this one with 360?
2) Will ,the pump above, be sufficient for this setup or i should look for other?
3) What order to put the components - for now i was thinking Res>CPU>Chipset>Pump>Rad?

Cheers mates and help will be appreciated

Your pump will be fine.

I wouldn't bother with a chip set block.

The rad will be fine for a cpu only loop. But bigger is always better.

Need to put the res before the pump. And above the pump in hight

Should be fine if you're only doing the CPU or unless you want really low temps. Check out Martin's pump power/flow spreadsheet here:

It should tell you how much pumping power you'll need. Generally for medium performance 1 GPM seems like the golden number.

Same as above.

+Rep for you guys.
Thanks for the info, will look into this site. The deal with the chipset is almost 90% a must as it runs really hot (DFI are known for that especially this one), but the loop is only for the CPU and chipset - not intending to cool anything else. So i think to go this way =>
Res>Pump>CPU>Chipset>Rad taking your advice.
