I'm new to water cooling. I've spent a few months reading here and there and I'm confident that I understand it, and know what I want.
That being said I'm still worried before I start buying parts that I make sure everything is compatible and do what I need them to do.
I'm going to be cooling Dual Core CPU at 3.6ghz (Oced from 2.4). Air is absolutely fine for this processor yes. But I want a good cooling system in place already for when I upgrade to a better CPU. (Looking at the upper mid ranged quad's waiting till 09 hits)
I was going back and fourth over external or internal for a while but decided internal. (Somewhat custom loop over the Reserator XT)
Using the Cosmos S by Cooler Master I'm shooting for a triple radiator (I believe the one I chose fit's) with the Apogee GTZ block.
The RAD will be hung on the inside top of the case with the fans mounted on the bottom sucking air down from outside of the case and through the RAD. (Do you think this is the best way to do it?) I was also thinking about putting some fans up above the RAD pushing down for a push-pull config.
I'm not really sure about what pump or res to use so I just picked two that I thought seemed decent. >.>
This is the list.
Swiftech Apogee™ GTZ Universal CPU Waterblock
Danger Den Black Ice GTX Xtreme 360 Radiator - Black *Select G 1/4" Fittings (Qty. 2): 1/4" ID Barb
Danger Den DD-CPX Pro 12V 3 Pin Powered Pump - 237 GPH (DD-CPX Pro) *Select G 1/4" Fittings (Qty. 2): 1/4" ID Barb
Koolance Inline Reservoir - 80mm ( TNK-80 ) * Reservoir Brackets: 120mm Reservoir Bracket120mm Reservoir Bracket ( 1/4 ID )
Tygon 1/4" ID (3/8" OD) Tubing (5feet)
PrimoChill ICE Non-Conductive Liquid Cooling Fluid (32 oz.) (Extra Dye to avoid pink ;p)[/#I0000ff]
This is what I have so far. Do I need clamps? Or other acessories? Any input is greatly appreciated.
BTW If this is in the wrong section I apologize. I dident see a Water Cooling section so just took a guess.
