Hi guys, I have somewhat crazy but might be a really good idea of how to cool your system better.
This might be handy especially for those who love to overclock. We all know that even with a good air cooler you will get high temps. And switching over to water cooling isn't the most reliable or cheap thing to do.
So, I wasn't sleeping for a few weeks! Yeah, I was thinking about the cooling. And I have came up with a very cool idea.
Look at this slightly and poorly edited picture I've attached.
If you are still confused then here it is:
The whole idea is to cool down the air inside the case as much as possible. The radiator goes on the ceiling of the case. By making two wholes you can take the tubes out side and add water. The cold water in radiator should go down and cool all the components. It's not super cooler, but it is a cheap way out.
For radiator you could use Swiftech MCR-220 Liquid Cooler Radiator (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835108086).
As for a case, Antec P182SE Silver Mirror-finished stainless steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129026) is a good example of what you need, but it is too thick so some other case with the same internal design will be good.
Well tell me what you think.
