TT Frio OCK

Clarabet · Nov 27, 2014

Hi All, i want to get the TT frio OCK for my system but i have corsair dominator ram. will it fit

uplink-svk · Nov 27, 2014

Depends on Your motherboard, and which Dominator from Corsair You have. There are diff. profiles Dominator editions.

Clarabet · Nov 27, 2014

i have a asus maximus vi extreme MB and 32 GB 2400mhz

uplink-svk · Nov 27, 2014

It won't fit, You need low profile ram, or different cooler. I suggest Noctua NH-U14s

Clarabet · Nov 27, 2014

would the frio extreme fit instead

uplink-svk · Nov 27, 2014

No it won't. Go water, or get NH-U14s, or just really, go water. Get Swiftech h220x, just be sure You have case that can handle it.

Clarabet · Nov 27, 2014

i do want to go water but an open system, i must get the Hydro then

uplink-svk · Nov 27, 2014

Well, open systems are pretty expensive. But if You want something more solid, I see it as the only way here.

Clarabet · Nov 27, 2014

i am getting a hydro h80i for now until i can afford to gather the necessary resources

uplink-svk · Nov 27, 2014

h100i is too expensive, right? Coz that would solve Your headache for a longer time...

i am getting the cooler master haf stacker 945 so i would only have a place for a 120 or 140 as a rear vent , not a 240 or 280.

i want to build a hell of a system

uplink-svk · Nov 27, 2014

cooler master haf stacker 945 can hold literally everything in it's upper compratment/lower. There's place for 3 fan rad on the side.

Clarabet · Nov 27, 2014

my plan is to get the 945 with an extra 915. you will have the lower and mid upper 915 for watercooling rads and the very top to hold 9HDD both WD black and green, so basically 4 chambers. i want the best

Clarabet · Nov 27, 2014

Chassis 1 Cooler Master 935 including 915R
Chassis 2 Cooler Master 915F
Chassis 3 Cooler Master 915R
MB Asus Maximus VI Extreme C2
CPU Intel Core i7 4790K 4Ghz
CPU Cooler Corsair Hydro H80i - until in can use watercooling system
PSU Corsair AX1500i
SSD for OS Asus ROG Raidr PCIE 240GB
HDD Gaming WD 4TB Black x3
HDD General WD 6TB Green x6
GPU Gigabyte Geforce GTX 980 x3
OS Windows 8.1 Full Edition
RAM 32GB Corsair Dominators 2400Mhz (4x8GB)
Fans CM Jet Flo 120mm PWM fans Blue LED

i really want to over do it

uplink-svk · Nov 28, 2014

That's gonna be one hardcore system, but if I may, go get Intel 530/Mushkin Chronos DX and get them to raid. I'm running Intel 530s in raid0 2-4 way, and I get uncompressed data up to 1-2 GB/s, depending on which way raid. Just saying, it's gonna be cheaper and faster. But If You want to go with the RoG, it's up to You.

And motherboard-wise, why not VII Formula, or VII Hero?

Clarabet · Dec 2, 2014

i want to be able to use triple gpu and a pcie ssd so required 4 pci slots, with raid i dont understand what its for and how to use it and i like RoG for reliability.

uplink-svk · Dec 2, 2014

Raid0 is having two hdd/ssd drives act as one, in general. Half of the data is on one, half on the other, and it increases the speed two times, in general.

Clarabet · Dec 2, 2014

how would this be done

uplink-svk · Dec 2, 2014

http://www.pcworld.com/article/132877/RAID.html

This is a pretty good article, explaining how to create raid array. Just remember, raid0 array is for system/games only, it's not an archive. Even when using reliable hdd/ssd-s, there's still twice the chance of failure while using raid0, the same goes for the PCi-e RoG SSD drive, it harbors the same technology within it's bowels.

Clarabet · Dec 2, 2014

wouldnt the WD 4tb blacks have good enough performance prior to raiding them

uplink-svk · Dec 2, 2014

Clarabet - depends on what blacks, there are few generations out there, and about 2 sub-types of each black. On HDDs it's good creating raid1 array, which is copying the same data on both drives, that makes them more reliable. Or You could have a "super fast" workspace, made out of raid0 HDDs, but I'd be still putting it on raid1 array, or at least +1 HDD. Or creating raid5, even that could solve it.

Clarabet · Dec 2, 2014

i would be using the WD 6tb greens for low performance games, programs, movies and other stuff like documents etc

uplink-svk · Dec 2, 2014

You can increase the power of HDDs by putting them into raid0 array, but You're having 100% more chance of failure, since "one data" are stored on "two" or more drives. I suggest using two SSD drives for OS/games, they will offer You comparable reliability as RoG PCi-e SSD drive, with higher performance, for lower price. I'm not encourage You to create raid arrays from all Your drives. E.g. I'm using one raid0 array atm., two raid1 arrays, and I have two independent HDDs, as "third option of failure". So far I'm pretty good. Although, I'm using raid1 arrays, for storage, not raid0. There You lose half of the space, but lower the fail ratio by 50% [not really, it could be 200%, and it could be 20%, depends on the health of both drives].
