I've been kicking around the idea of putting WC back in my rig for a bit now. I originally opted out for a Corsair H70 but the bug has bit me again, and I don't really like the temp's the h70 is giving me.
My questions are:
Are the heatercores still the king of the 2x120mm class? I've researched this quite a bit but have not come up with any definitive answers. I'm looking for something that will fit behind the front two intake fans nicely.
Also what pump would even be considered good for this? My old rig had the DD-CPX 12v DangerDen Special, but I didn't much care for it as sometimes it would whine and the tach wire NEVER worked.
PC Specs:
i7 920 D0 Has gone 4.1ghz but is limited to heat since I've aquired the h70
Asus Rampage III Formula
12gb of Mushkin 1333 Ram
2x GTX 260's in SLI
Intel 120gb SSD
850w XFX Black Edition PSU
All housed inside an Antec 300
As the parts list so far, I have:
Heatercore out of a 77 Bonne w/AC since I can get it next to nothing due to father working at a napa store.
CPU Block: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-113-_-Product
Pump: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-082-_-Product
I can order fittings later as well as get tubing locally since this won't be a show pc and clear tubing will work fine.
Thanks in advance
