Hello , and thank you for trying to assist me. Here is my situation.
I recently upgraded my son's computer (we both play Planetside 2, and his computer needed the upgrade) with the following upgrades:
MOTHERBOARD:
ASUS SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0 AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
CPU:
AMD FX-8350 FX-Series Eight-Core Processor Edition, Black AM3 FD8350FRHKBOX
RAM:
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory
GPU:
GIGABYTE GV-R787OC-2GD Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Exp
Now, the CPU, the GPU, and the case all have fans on/in them, and the collective noise is quite loud. So, I thought that perhaps I would use a water cooler. What I am unsure of is, does the water cool system replace the fans on the CPU, the GPU, and/or the fans in the case itself? The water coolers I have seen thus far appear to replace the air fans on the CPU, but what about the case fans and the GPU fans?
Also, any product recommendations you may have would be appreciated. I have been looking at the CoolerMaster Seidon 120XL and the Corsair Hydro Series H80i, but I am not sure if they will suit my needs.
LOL, I release that I have actually rambled, and asked a lot of questions. I guess my single question is, what water cooling system can I use to replace the fan on my CPU and the fans in my case and do I need to purchase a "water cooling case"? If I need to purchase a new water cooling case, any recommendations?
Thank you for any assistance you may be able to provide.
