Ok i am rather new to water cooling in the making but i have been reading posts on it for a year or so now and finally decided to do it. i have the armor case so i got plenty of room to play with plus i am planning on customizing the case to hide the cables etc. well less bsin and more talk.
i want to water cool my cpu and 2 vgas dunno if i should cool the north bridge most people say it is not necessary. on 22 once intel drops their prices i will be gettin a e6600 but my major problem is the graphic cards those things are runnin at like 60-70C constantly and the fans are loud as ****.
since i want to keep my contraption lolz in the case i was thinkin of gettin these parts
2x Swiftech MCW60 and 2 sets of zalman ram heatsinks
1x Danger Den RBX - 1/2", LGA 775
1x MCP655
1x Swiftech MCR-220 "Quiet Power"
1x res will be custom made by mwa cylinder about 3in wide and 15-16 long
6x fans
and the rest of the little crap
the tubing duno if i shold buy tygon enlighten the noob plz
k the idea is to start from radiator to cpu since the block has 2 outs i will use one per graphic card then use a Y to combine them and lead to the res then to pump and finally to the rad LEME know if this makes sense
heres my primitive sketch
i dont want to attach the rad on the back/top of the rig for various reasons so if this idea sucks it will be back to the makin a huge cube from plexi for the rad/pump and the rad will have 3 fans on each side the part with barbs facin the motherboard will have 3 LED ones suckin the air from the case and blowin it through the rad and 3 on other side will be blowin it out of the case
last and final is usin a piece of 1/4 plexi glass to cover ur motherboard a good idea of course holes will be made for blocks mem etc and for the north south bridge i would install little strong *** fans to blow on em in the plexi
