Howdy,
I am building a computer to take with me to college. I have a very large budget to spend on it, so I decided that I wanted to water cool both for performance and looks. I really do not care about noise. My computer components are the following:
Athlon 64 x2 4800+
SLI 7800gtx
DFI LANPARTY nF4 SLI-DR Socket 939
Lian Li PC-V2000A Silver Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case
Now, I have read alot of posts on this forum and they have really helped me choose the water cooling components. But before I got out and buy them I want some opinions on them. Here is what I have choosen so far:
Swiftech MCP655 12v DC Pump
SwiftTech MCW6002-64
Danger Den NV-68SLI (Still researching if they fit a 7800gtx)
MCW20-B Chipset water-block
Black Ice XtremeIII Radiator
Delta 120x38mm Triple Blade High Speed (x3) 142cfm!
I have two questions for my setup. What can I do about getting some shrouds for my fans, because I have read in some of the posts that shrouds really improve performance. Also, what are some recommendations on coolants. Any comments and feedback on that setup would be very helpful before I spend a large chunk of change on this. I also want to say thanks for a very helpful forum getting my started on my first water cooling beast of a machine.
