this is my setup dual radiator from becooling , maze 2 waterblock and a magdrive 350 pump. this will be cooling an athlon at 1.4 or more on an a7a

my questions are

what hose size should i use for the radiator and pump, ican't find it listed anywhere.

would i be able to add a chipset water cooler to the system or should i just use an air cooler for the chipset

and if i should use a water cooler for the chipset what which one ??


oh one more while i got your attention should i use a res or should i just have an inline setup ?


thanks in advanced

5/8"OD 3/8"ID

You could add a water cooler to your chipset without any problems. :)

You can get chipset waterblocks from DangerDen.

Depends on how you want to set it up. If you have room, go with a res as it makes it much easier to bleed your system of air. However, if you have a small case and want to fit it all in like me, then you'll just want a fill line between the pump and radiator.
