I got a couple of simples questions, at least i think they're simple .
Heat has always been a big problem for my computer, I'm hoping water cooling will be the solution for that. Though i'd like to get an idea of how much my temps will drop. Here's a water cooling setup i've got my eye on at the moment:
RBX: $53
Hydor L20: $35
Chevette 86' Heatercore: $22
Clearflex60 - 10ft: $12 (20% off)
Hoseclamps - 15: $11.25
T-line: $1.75
So about how many degrees (Celsius) should that drop me? I just want to be sure it's worth the dough.
My other question is, will i need a new PSU? The one i have right now is an antec 350w. It's already handling the rig in my sig, plus 4 hard drives. Will water cooling put it over the edge? Or are PSUs not affected much by water cooling? I'm not so sure.
