Hello community,
I'm a first time water-cooler and wanted some weigh in the components I'm thinking of using.
So I'm here's the components I'm have bought / will be going for:
In terms of the water cooling, I'm going for a slightly unorthodox approach and wanted to know if it would actually work and if anybody has any guidance as to what to look out for:
12mm chrome plated copper pipes: copper pipes
XSPC EX280 radiator: Radiator
Barrow Pump: pump
CPU block: block
Here's where it gets a bit weird:
I was thinking of using 12mm chrome plated water pipe fittings (not bending the copper pipe, just cutting with a hacksaw):
elbow joints
^ These would be used to join the cut parts of pipe together.
When it came to actually connecting the pipe into the rad/pump/cpu block, I would be using these:
Barrow elbow joint
and:
Regular fitting
The colour scheme I'm going for is white/silver. I've never watercooled before nor do I know anybody with any experience so would really appreciate any help you guys could provide
Thank you.
P.S. If there are any suggestions please consider that I live in the UK and sometimes we get shafted when it comes to prices compared to our US friends.
