Hey again :),

So I bought some of the hardware already, I would be happy for some comments on if it's any good and what is missing in order to be able to make it a complete cooling system for GPU and CPU because I lack a lot of information about water cooling although I decided to study a new turf anyway...


Koolance Liquid Coolant Bottle High-Performance 700 mL (UV Green)

EK EVGA GeForce 680 GTX FTW VGA Liquid Cooling Block - Nickel CSQ X2

wiftech G1/4 Lok-Seal Compression Fitting [3/8"ID x 1/2"OD] 1-2X3-8-G1-4-CF-BK ( how many do I need I only bought one)


Koolance Tubing Clear UV-Reactive PVC [ID 10mm x OD 13mm] - HOS-10CL (very short)

Koolance 8.7 L/min Reservoir and Pump with OLED Display [fits Single 5.25" (CD)

Thank you for reading this :).

Best regards,

Roey

:lol:
He's making fun of the dyed coolant, with a water-cooling loop you want plain Distilled water in there., available at any supermarket.

Yea, you want to read through the sticky linked by Cristop, that will explain a lot of what you need to know. Your currently missing a fair few parts.

Generally you need two fittings per component.

Not making fun of it exactly, Kool Aid water cooling would be "sweet" (pun intended)

Anyway I just wanted to mention I did accept warmly any kind of comment but preferably a constructive comment.

I mean, this is a new territory for me they don't even sell any kind of water cooling for pcs in my country just closed water cooling like h100i etc all I am saying is a sarcastic comment is just offensive even if it's not towards me, not because I am offended deeply or anything like that, because I respect Tom's Hardware community so deeply that I never expected something like that. In the other hand - people always tend to say I am waaaaaaaaaaaaaay to judgemental and so on so I might just have taken this to the next level ( lol ).

Thanks for the help guys, I will read the sticky after work, would love if any of you could help me pick parts I need to fit my next case possibly TJ11, Obsidian 900D.

Love ALL your comments :).

Best regards,

Roey

The sticky has links to stores that sell WC parts, though whether any are in your country I dont know. I know FrozenCPU ship internationally, but its questionable if its worth shipping. This might be useful, trawl through the retailers under your country and check for WC equipment.

As to what to buy for the loop, that's for you to figure out. Water-cooling is one of the things I wont just give a parts list for, its much better if you can figure out the loop yourself. Read the sticky, decide what you need and we'l comment on it and point out any issues.
If you have any questions after reading the sticky, dont hesistate to ask.

Roey, I was not making fun of your idea or being sarcasticat all. What I said is intended as humor, like when you tell a joke to your friends.

You want to water cool yes ?

"Kool Aid" is a beverage. You add a packet of flavored powder to water, and add sugar. It comes in many flavors and each flavor is usually colored a different color. So instead of colored coolant, I suggested colored "Kool Aid". General Mills is the company that makes "Kool Aid" I believe, so they could sponsor your water cooling equiptment or pc if it used "Kool Aid".

I was not trying to disrespect your PC or Watercooling :)

Oh hell no, didn't mean to say you have been belittling me, no. What I meant was you were cleverly saying something funny yet quite negative , hence sarcastically ( at least that's how I see good sarcasm ) I just didn't know what you mean as I am from Israel - English is not my native language so I have no idea what you meant I actually had to google these companies :p so I was seriously shrugging, thank you guys and again I haven't been offended ANY comment is appreciated as you actually did take your time to read this and not troll back that's kind enough :).

Any kind of information is appreciated thanks guys, and thanks for the unnecessary apology, I do too.
