Hey guys, just looking into upgrading my Case and maybe adding a custom loop in there somewhere.
**Current System**:
Case: Thermaltake Armor+
Mobo: AsRock Z77 Extreme 4
CPU: i7 3770k
GPU: Asus nVidia GTX 670 DCII
Ram: G.SKILL DDR3 16GB
CPU Cooler: Corsair H60
PSU: Corsair HX-650
SSD: Intel 330 120GB (BOOT)
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB
**Case**:
I've been looking into the Corsair Obsidian 650D and it seems like it's a great choice just it is a little bit more then I want to spend.
Things I'm looking for in a case:
-Quiet
-Nice Airflow/Cable Management
-A 'Pretty' case with minimal LED's.
I'm hoping that you guys will be able to suggest a few that are under $200 AUD.
**Water Cooling**:
I'm currently using a Corsair H60 and it seems to be doing a good job but I'd like to also Liquid Cool my GPU. Currently my case has a 200mm side fan which is nice for air flow straight onto the GPU but if I do upgrade to something like the 650D, they don't have the side fan and I'm worried my gtx670 will get a bit hot. Also, I'm using a 3770k and I've finely decided to look into overclocking it for some nice speeds.
Right now, I have basically no knowledge with custom loops and I do not have any hands on experience with them. Basically, all I know is you need a Reservoir, Pump, Tubing, Liquid stuff and the blocks for where I want to hook it up to.
What I'm looking for;
-Quiet
-Cheap
-Possibility to upgrade
-Cool the CPU/GPU
I'm really not sure what to expect Price wise with custom loops, mostly just trying to get an idea on what a nice setup will cost.
Thanks!
