Hello everyone.
I'm building new PC in the next few months and while I'm currently trying to figure out whether or not I want/need a WC setup, I figured I'd ask for some input as to whether or not the parts I've picked out will do the job.
Main components:
Intel C2D E6600: OC'd to 3.5Ghz
eVGA Nforce 680i SLI Mobo
Crucial Ballistix RAM: 2x1GB DDR2-800
SeaSonic M12 700W PSU
2x WD Raptor 10k RPM 74GB SATA Drives (RAID 0)
1x Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320GB Drive
2x Lite-On 16x DVD Burner (SATA)
eVGA Geforce 8800GTS
Antec 900 Case
WC components:
Swiftech Apogee Water Block
Danger Den DD12V-D5 Pump
Danger Den Black Ice GTX120 Rad
Danger Den 5 1/4" Bay Resevoir
Tygon 3603 1/2" ID tubing
I'm mostly concerned with cooling/noise levels as this computer and one other will be in my bedroom. I've been researching for months to find the best stuff and would like to know if the water cooling parts I've picked out will work well. I'm open to any and all suggestions as I have not yet purchased any of the parts (I'm pricing everything out first). At some point I will add another 8800GTS and may need to add both of them to the cooling loop. I'm also looking for a solution that won't require any modding of the case if possible as I want to keep the exterior as clean as possible.
Thanks.
