Best Water Cooling System

Ugh, I had a post going and hit refresh...got rid of it all.

Need a bigger rad...esp if you are adding in that GPU to the loop. That radiator will only work (at stock speeds) on your i7. Add another radiator of equal or greater size if you want the loop to include that 280.

Read up on rads/cooling/watts/fans/pumps/flow rates.

WOW, conundrum.

Those seem extrodinarly smilar links from the last post you made about watercooling.

Thanks that was the joke...Like i said the last time he posted those:

I have things already typed out for when people ask a vriety of questions about overclocking.

Mandelevi. If you plan to cool a i7 and the NB AND a GPU you better be looking at a MINIMUM of a 120x3 rad, possibly a 120x4 rad. That rad is just way too small. But, it is able to easily add another 120x2 rad to the loop. The pump can handle it.

So buy another 120x2 MCR220, fittings, some hose your okay.

Go to a scrapyard and check out car heater cores or motorbike radiators. Look for ones that have lots of fine channels and dense fins. Oil coolers also work okay, if you can find one small enough.

Those suckers tend to dissipate a lot of heat. They work best when coupled with impingent blocks and a high-pressure pump.

Note that you'll need a largish case - the Golf core I'm using measures at 140x200x50mm, on an i7 940 at 4.4GHz and two 4870 1GB cards. The coolant temperature (separate electronic probe, software can go stuff itself) is a constant 39ºC after it's warmed up. Speedfan claims the CPU temp is 46ºC at high, but it's known to lie.

Incidentally, don't ask what blocks I'm using, since both the VGA blocks and the CPU block are custom built.

Looks like a MCP355 with a XSPC top...that would be my guess...

Now that you found a really top notch forum to post at, why the heck are you still here? Be careful at XS, no stopid questions.

I'm the same name there.....................

LOL me too, I'm the same name on XS and OCForums. I come here to help, I dunno why. OCF is diff than the one you frequent. It's kinda my homie place.

post more....LOL

Yep, its almost entertaining to me...

I logg into the computer in the morning grab a bowl of popcorn and start lmao at peoples stupid questions

and i like answering them (it gives you that warm fuzy feeling inside that says
"i just contributed to the community, because of me THF isnt going to die" )

LOL

No, they are not cash redeamable but you can go to the "toms store" and spend your points on a plethora of EXTREME prizes!

Do they have those plastic-hinged snakes, paddle balls and cheak Jax sets?

I don't care much about the points too, but I DO CARE about when people like you,me,zorg,et al are given crappy titles. ie. wtf is up with "wannabe"?)

You, sir, have been Knighted...Sir Conumdrum, Tom's Resident A$$hole.

Makes no sense...kind of a stupid concept to me.

Yeah, maybe they would get response from users if they gave them gold stars or stamps on their hands after recess.

To make what you once knew completely irrelevant. That's all I can think of.

Sir Conumdrum, Tom's Resident Watercooled A$$hole. I am chilled where it counts..........
I like that better, I'm not on the other subforums.

I never payed too much attention to the names they give us anyway.

LOL...your choice...works for me. I'll admit, you do come off rather rough around the edges, but seriously, I have seen myself getting that way with people that refuse to do even a little homework first.

"Hey guys, I was thinking about putting a computer in a mini-fridge, I am positive it will work. Here is why I am right regardless all of you have seen/heard/experienced otherwise...and how I will be a complete jerk about it..."
