Hi all,
Im looking through the water cooling guide and thinking............wow i really dont know what to go for still. I seem to have a huge amount of watts to cool for some reason and im really not sure what i should get in terms of brand and size etc. So i thought, why not ask the experts direct? So here it is;
My system consists of the following;
Intel i7-3930k
Asus Rampage IV Formula M/B
16GB of DDR-1866mhz Ripjaws
2x Asus GTX680's in SLI.
1x 240GB Wildfire SSD + 6x WD HDD (2x 3TB, 4x 2TB)
I currently have a H80 cooling the CPU but i notice at 4.3 it seems to throttle itself when at 100% due to heat. So i thought, why not water cool the whole system and take out the chunky GPU cooling sinks/fans. My case is the Tt Chaser-MK. I built this computer myself and apart from putting the H80 in i have no experience in water cooling. There are so many block/hoses/fittings/radiators i dont know where to begin, Im a mechanic by trade so i have some experience with radiators (truck ones so they around about 4000% larger then PC ones HAHA!) but i need your help with this one!
Budget is around 1k for a full system, i want a real good one, i dont want to have failures or cooling issues. If i have to change the case then i will consider this for sure! Thanks for the help in advance.
Stay cool,
S15YO!.
