Hey broz...
Just finished my water sys this morning b4 work... all i can say is
"Im impressed"
I built my own, as i hear 'off the shelf' systems dont cut the mustard.
Got a good dc pump, cpu block, and maze gpu block from dangerden.
If u REALLY wanna kill heat go4 an impingement block+good pump.
Dont forget a good rad/fan sys tho!
May aswel go a gpu block too. The maze4 is good. Dont waste your time with one of those MASSIVE gpu/ram blocks. Simple sink is enuf for gpu ram.
Hose i got from a local h/ware store, but it doesnt bend too well, may have 2 address this later, but it IS bigger than 1/2", meaning ne slight kinks wont bring things 2 a halt.
The rad is v important for me so i went with an oil cooler off ebay. It gives good flow, 9rows, and the fins have a massive surface area. This combined with a custom shroud and large low rpm fan will work well (when its done).
Its REALLY quiet now, and will be even better once i get some sound insulating foam for the inside.
Temps... CPU i cant gague as it doesnt play nicely with the mobo, but gpu (x1950xt) is a hot hot LOUD SOB. Was running @~70c idle, now its 30-40c
My cpu/mobo is playing silly buggers with me so i cant even give u a good idea of OC.
