HI guys,
I have this motherboard: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4980#ov
as you can see on the heat sinks on the top there is two closed in/outlets for water cooling.
I was wondering I could only put water or a coolant in it and close it instead of using tubes because my case cant handle more than one radiators. These heatsinks don't require water circulating as far as I know. Hope you guys will help me on this! :??:
 
Solution
Putting a coolant in there wont do anything, in anything it would be counter productive as the water will retain the heat longer preventing the heat sinks from cooling down.
That is designed to run through tubing to a radiator.

you need a wc loop to run those heatsinks. just get more tubing and route that to the same rad, shouldnt produce more than 5c more heat.
