I was wondering as it's been a while since I've bought new water cooling hardware, what do people go for when they buy custom loops? Do people go for just EK or do they go elsewhere like Black Ice rads, Alphacool, Heatkiller etc?
The reason I ask, is that I plan to put a few loops together and the last few water cooling parts I had bought where Thermochill rads and XSPC (I think that's the right way around!! lol) res tops with the Lang 18w pumps.. A little old school I guess...
I've seen some of the newer D5 pumps and res's, they look great I'm considering some 560mm rads for CPU loops and possibly the same for the GPUs but whilst I was looking at some of the performance orientated Black Ice rads such as the GTR (favourite type of car also....) I wondered as I'm considering the noice (3000rpm fans can get a little boring over time..., especially 8 or so of them...) I'd like to consider possibly something better...
Could anyone suggest anything? I'm not a massive fan of RGB but I do love some subtle lighting
