looking to trade an old ssd on craigslist and this guy offered this:

Xspc rasa waterblock with xspc dual 5.25 bay res/pump combo and a 240mm radiator

...no idea wtf that all means lol
 


i have a NZXT 810 Switch case i know it'll fit my case, just wasnt sure if it was a full water cooling system or not, which i still need to follow up with the game if so... as to if it works n what not
 


Fitting the case is the least of the issues. Is it a complete setup? All the hoses and couplings? Is it in semi-good condition? Does it work? Does that block fit your current socket?

And primarily....have you ever built a custom watercooling setup from random parts before? How strong are your DIY skills?
 


that was really one of my biggest questions as to whether it was a complete cooling system. Also the condition in which it is, just went him a follow up email asking about these things.

As for my DYI skills i would like to say very strong since i've been building and repairing computer all on my own for almost a decade now.

 
so far hes said that everything is good and dandy it's just comes down to what backplate i need which hes an intel plate which im am3+ which he directed me to frozencpu.com and for tubing or w/e he said hardware stores or what he has may do considering my needs
