Hey all,
I have a qx6700 and was wondering what components people are using to watercool this chip. Its runs very hot and I think water is essential for any type of overclocking even if it is mild. I would like to be able to get it running 3.5Ghz plus and I am not too sure which watercooling components I should invest in.

Any suggestions for good parts or anybody running nice setups let me know.
ps I have a stacker 830 case so lots of room.
Thanks in advance

Runs hot at what setting? Stock? What is your case and HSF?

My case is a coolermaster stacker 830, using the stock HSF, running chip stock. It does not run too hot right now its ok but I want to overclock it and from what I have read you need water to get big overclocks which is what I want.
I know the stock HSF is a POS but I dont feel like buying another aircooler because I am in the process of setting up watercooling.

All I want is the CPU to be watercooled, so just one block. Does anybody have any suggestions as to good components that are proven to cool this thing for good overclocks
thanks
