Hi everyone,
I'm putting together my second custom build, and this time, would like to venture into liquid cooling.
That being said, I'd like to start with a contained unit setup, just to be on the safer side. Something like the NZXT Kraken.
so my question is this, what would you recommend (ie. what do i need) to cool a setup like this:
