Hello,
I just bought a new computer and I am new to building my own computer.
I have so many questions and feel so down and hopeless I do not quite know where to begin. I will first tell you which pieces I have purchased:
Crucial M4 CT256M4SSD2 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
CORSAIR DOMINATOR 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMP16GX3M4X1600C7
ASUS Rampage IV Formula LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
ASUS Black Blu-ray Drive SATA Model BC-12B1ST/BLK/B/AS - OEM
CORSAIR H100 (CWCH100) Extreme Performance Liquid CPU Cooler
Western Digital Caviar Black WD1002FAEX 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
EVGA SuperClocked 015-P3-1582-AR GeForce GTX 580 (Fermi) 1536MB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support ...
CORSAIR Professional Series HX850 (CMPSU-850HX) 850W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91 80 PLUS SILVER Certified Modular Active PFC ...
COOLER MASTER HAF 932 Advanced RC-932-KKN5-GP Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case with USB 3.0, Black Interior and Four Fans-1x ...
Intel Core i7-3930k
Koolance gtx 580 waterblock.
First of all, do these interface together??
Next, I barely understand the water cooling without the video card waterblock in the picture. So, lets start from before that. I have a corsair h100. This is good so my cpu can run really fast ( maybe be overclocked ) and it will not damage it or cause the system to shut down. So it has a radiator and something else? Which is the long one and which is the cube looking one hovering over the cpu?
Now, the corsair h100 it comes with two tubes. But I need to include my waterblock into my water circuit, correct? So how on god's earth do I do that and where do I buy the spare tube? Additionally, can it interface with my h100, or would I need to completely buy/build a new water circuit thing. I'm so lost and have no clue what to do. I keep watching youtube videos but not understanding one thing. WIthout the gtx 580 waterblock, I understand things pretty well. With it though, I don't know what to do.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you so much
