I appreciate that this has been asked previously but the OP was nearly five years ago now and therefore hoping that more adequate solutions have been presented.
I am looking to build a new system using a couple of E5 2600 v3 Xeons in a Coolermaster Cosmos II case and therefore looking for the best solution with respect to water cooling. Unfortunately, I do use the drive areas that could otherwise be removed for a radiator. While I'm not looking to overclock the Xeons per se, I do want them to run as cool as possible, especially when they are under full load. I do a lot of parallel processing mainly using GPUs but also CPUs from time to time. I think I should be ok keeping the stock cooling on the GPUs cards; 3 x 7970.
The main reason why I'm looking to watercool the Xeons is to make sure that they are going to be kept as cool as possible without excessively heavy coolers stressing out the system board - I've seen how much of a pain it can be to diagnose hairline board fractures and this is also something I am very keen to avoid.
Currently, I'm considering something like this for each CPU but wondering if a better solution exists. Any pointers to guides or immediate suggestions to of the shelf solutions would be greatly apprecited.
