I'm a newbie to wc and don't know much about wc or even modding a case. my current system is a 2.8e prescott running at 3.5ghz 250fsb 1:1 being air cooled with Thermalright SP-94 with vantec tornado fan. I'm planning to move my system to my bedroom and looking into a quieter cooling solution. Because of my lack of knowledge about case modding, I plan to get a Koolance PC2-650 watercooled case. This wc system uses 1/4" hose which connects to cpu block with 1/4" inlet and outlet. I have read one of the stickies saying that the larger the hose size, the less resistance therefore better cooling performance. Therefore, would I benefit by using an adaptor to convert the 1/4" hose to 1/2" and then buy a cpu block with 1/2" inlet and outlet. Of course the returning hose will have to be reverted back to 1/4" with another adaptor? Thanks for your replies.
