So i have decided to take the plunge into water cooling. I wanted to see what you all thought of the setup that i am looking at, and would appreciate and advice you can give, as this is my first h20 setup. I want to try and go woth universal components, i.e. those that will work with a future system.
current setup:
opteron 170 overclocked to 2.5 with Tuniq 120
dfi lan party Ut
2 gigs corsair xms
evga 7800 GT
2 x WD raptors in raid 0
lian li pc-71 case
future setup, hopefully sooner than later
intel q6600 G0 stepping
asus p5k3 deluxe wifi
8800 series card, undecided as to which
corsair xms 2x2gb kit or ocz 2x2gb kit
lian li pc-71 case
Here is what i am thinking as far as the water setup goes:
cpu block: swiftech storm extreme
gpu block: swiftech MCW60-05
chipset block: swiftech MCW30
pump: swiftech mcp655
tubing: 1/2" tygon
radiator: black ice extreme 3x120 (top of case)
2nd radiator: 2 x swiftech 80mm radiators on rear exhaust
reservoir: swiftech micro
Please let me know if anything stands out as a no no. Also, what would be the best case fans to use with the radiator? And has anyone had any luck overclocking the 2x2gb memory kits? is the chipset Block necessary?
