Need help with gaming rig I just built

[alexbeast]

i am very "noob" when it comes to gaming rigs i just know the basics but i recently built a rig and the parts are as follows
AMD fx-8350
geforce gtx 760 2GB
650w psu
sabertooth FX R.20 motherboard
8gigs of ram
my case has 3 fan slots that iv put fans into should i get water cooling? if so which one and if i said anything wrong please correct me because i really am new to this stuff. I also the cpu goes about 60 degrees when im playing bf4 for a while and my gpu is about 50-60. any help or input would be nice

AMD processors run pretty hot so if you are stable at 60 degrees after a few hours that sounds about right.

You mentioned water cooling, are you looking into getting a closed loop circuit just for the CPU or a whole custom loop?

Those temps are just fine I wouldn't suggest going with a closed water loop unless you wish to overclock. If you want to cool the CPU more i would suggest just ordering this, but i think it is a bit overkill.

all i really want is water cooling for my gpu and cpu again im really new so idk which circuit im guessing whole custom loop because i need cooling for my gpu. sorry if im confusing you aha

I think thsi is better CM 212 EVO.

This is good start for custom loop.

Personally I do not believe that a 280 (2x140) rad will be enough for a GPU and CPU. You should be looking for atleast 360 for the both of them. For just a CPU closed loop I recommend a corsair h100i, I have a 4770k at 4.4Ghz at 1.2Vcore and run at 70 degrees during prime 95. Normal gaming after a few hours I sit around 50.

alright and do u have any suggestions on the gpu? and is there a possible bundle that comes with both cpu and gpu coolers?

 

[Devballs]

At that point you are looking to build a custom solution that you will have to part together yourself. XSPC and EKWB are good for water cooling. You will need the CPU plate and GPU plate, a res, a pump, rads, connectors and fans. For this type of setup you are looking at a minimum of 500$. With one GPU and a CPU you may get away with 360, but more is always better. Does your case support this amount of raditor?

I do not like H!00 or 110 coolers. They are not really good.
I have 560mm rad cooling my cpu + gpus. 3930k + SLI 780.
Working really good. So bigger the rad is better it is. Depends what case yo uhave how big you can go with.
If you look case for water cooling then look Phanteks.

Custom water loop is a lot of work, you will have to order waterblocks for your gpu and cpu, reservoir, pump, lines, fittings and -whatever else you would need. I would say it would cost $300 - $500. In my opinion not worth it, if you really want to order water cooling for your cpu just order and H80i or a H100i if it will fit in your case.

it is a mid tower http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=6_112&item_id=045154 that is it so could u give me suggestions of coolers to fit that?

Good air coolerr is better than H100.
Look this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoaAT5TkXc4

 

[Devballs]

1 x 140 mm top TwoCool fan (standard)
1 x 120 mm rear TwoCool fan (standard
You will not be able to throw a custom water loop setup in this as you do not have enough space. At most you could look at a closed loop to do your CPU.

 

[AxlFone]

Best go with air cooler with that case.

ah that sucks that i cant cool my gpu but it is what it is . any suggestions on a closed loop cooling unit for my AMD FX-8350 ?

 

[Devballs]

With only a 140 rad available I would recommend getting a good air cooler instead, it will produce better results. Toms has a review of 10 air coolers and their results that would be a good article to read.

 

[AxlFone]

No point read. This is good. Toms tests are not so good. They are full of paid opinions. Or maybe tester personal opinions what makes test really colourfull reading. But need to remember couple things.
Look deepper than juts Toms tests.

yeah im going to go into canada computers and ask them for help with picking air cooling but for a good one how much would it be?

Wow.. I did getr blue screen when I did try to post answer.. What was I thinking?

So this is goos cooler. Expensive but good.
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/noctua-cpu-cooler-nhu14s
Phanteks is good cooler too. Looks better.
Thermalright do have good coolers.
http://www.thermalright.com/products.html

CM 212 EVO is not bad choice it is cheap but OC is not so good. It can not max out all cpu's.

Hope thsi helps And ask more if you have something u want to know

im gonna look for the first one you linked me money isent an issue i rather pay for a good cooling system that works well then pay for a cheap one that doesnt work as well but i think im good ty for all the help man
