Want to go water cooling.

CDdude55 · May 8, 2011, 01:37 AM

Hey guys,

I was wondering if there is any good and decently priced watercooling kit that i could get to start water cooling. And if not, wants the best route to take?

This is were I would start . But there are several other kits you can chose from .

You can also go with the Corsair H60 it is way cheap and should do a nice job as well .

Go the 120.3 version of that kit instead.

Only go watercooling if you plan on cooling both cpu and gpu in one loop. If you need any help putting it together or anything just throw me a msg man. I think you got my cellie

Thats an awesome kit guys, thanks!!

And i will probably need some help putting it all together (never used watercooling), so i will defiantly be in contact.

If i go with the triple radiator im not sure where i could fit it, the top of my case only have two fan mounts. I could put it on the outside, but i don't know how to do that lol.

And what about tubing?, how much should i get and how big should it be?

It comes with 7/16" tubing and 1/2" OD fittings. Only thing it doesnt come with is fluid. I suggest using distilled water found in most thrift and grocery stores.

Oh and external mounting, pretty sure it comes with brackets.
