So I'm probably going to build an new comp. soon with these main components:
i7-3820
HD 7970
Corsair 600T Special Edition
and an x79 regular ATX mobo (don't know which one yet).
I won't be doing any overclocking and will do lots of 3D rendering and modeling and some heavy gaming. I was thinking about doing a watercooling build because of my previous overheating problems with most of the computers I've owned. So really my questions are:
for my purposes, is watercooling worth it?
what will the price difference be between an air and water cooled build?
how much of a temp. difference will there be?
is it quieter than air cooling?
and is thermal paste needed on the processor when installing the waterblock to the cpu?
Thanks in advance.
