Hello all,
New to custom PCs in general, but brand new to Water cooling... Just built my first Custom PC...
Intel i7 3820k Sandy-Bridge
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 760 WindForce 3X
Asus P9X79 MoBo
8GB Corsair Vengeance
OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W Modular
Two Asus VE247 Monitors
and a Thermaltake Water 3.0 Performer all in one watercooler.
I am looking into creating a custom "show" computer. Something with a lot more work into things like custom cable sleeves, all the fans look the same and super quite, flashy custom water cool system etc... Not actually to show off but as a personal hobby and time consumer.
I am confused about one part before I start purchasing...
I am looking into the NZXT Switch 810, going for a Black/Carbon fiber and green look. so I also picked BitFenix Spectre LED Green 120mm Case Fan. I think I am going to need 12 of those...
I want to get the XSPC EX360, (Six 120MM fans for Push/Pull at the top of the case), and (From FrozenQ) D5 Pump, D5 Dual Bay Resi, and their LGA2011 CPU block, The tubing and coolant and fittings from XSPC as well, but the fittings is where I am running into questions...
How many fittings do I need? 2 for the Resi, + 2 for the CPU block + 2 for the radiator and + 2 for the pump?? or only the resi? I am lost... :$
Sorry this is so incredibly long just wanted to make sure you have all the info before answering so I don't have to relay more info and postpone the answers.
