Hi everyone.
So I have decided to build my dream rig. I know the parts I want but I am not sure how I want to configure the water-cooling.
Here's what I've got:
Case: Corsair Obsidian 800d
PSU: CORSAIR HX Series CMPSU-750HX 750W - 80 PLUS SILVER Certified Modular
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
MOBO: MSI Big Bang-XPower LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
CPU: Intel Core i7-930 Bloomfield 2.8GHz LGA 1366 130W Quad-Core Desktop Processor
GPUs: 2X GIGABYTE GV-N460OC-1GI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB
Hard drive: WD Caviar Black 640 GB
*Haven't chosen the optical drive yet*
So what parts should I get for the water cooling? Blocks, tubing, coolant, reservoir, pump, etc?
My budget is not unlimited, but I do want a nice setup.
Also, obviously I want to cool the CPU, but should I cool the GPU's too or the MOBO? The MOBO is supposedly quite cool on it's own.
I'm thinking aesthetically here so I want nice color coordinations (red).
