I've just put together a rig to update what i had about 5yrs ago. my technology refresh updated my q6600 w/H50 + 8800gts + asus p5n-d + 4GB G.skills + raid0'd pair of Raptors.
this refresh is now a 3930k w/H80 + 560ti + asus x79pro + 16GB g.skills + raided intel SSDs. Case has not changed, still a cosmo1000
While my MB & CPU temps are in upper 20s idle and CPU temp has peaked in the 40s under normal load, my vga on the other hand will do 60+. i know this is tolerable, but seeing what solutions are out there, and i'm guessing its going to be water. What I'm seeking from the community is a water solution. I'm sure someone oldschool out there can probably just jog my memory, perhaps theres a vendor out there that makes a block+pump+tubes specific to this; was looking for a kit, if it exists. more importantly, if anyone is running a similar rig (gt5xx+watercooling), your 2cents is highly appreciated.
