I'm new to watercooling but fairly experienced at general system building. I am not a gamer. I work on distributed computing apps and like the raw power. I might try my hand at overclocking. Quieter is better, but not critical.
This is one of my few hobbies so my budget is pretty big. I tend to like buying things used to save where I can.
My current system:
Thermaltake armour
L1N64
2x 2210 opteron (looking to upgrade to 2347 HE shortly)
2x Zalman CNPS9500
OCZ Platium 2x1Gb
Thermaltake 600W stealthxstream
36GB raptor (hoping for raid 0 2x 150 raptor shortly)
Long term storage is NAS so its not relevant.
I've been offered parts of a cooling system for sale:
Innotek Maxi Radiator
Innotek Maxi Booster Kit
Typhoon dual bay Reservoir
Two Danger Den DD12V-D5 Variable Speed Pumps
Tubing
Questions:
1. Are the items I've been offered approriate to cool this system? If so, what price would be good (asking about 200)?
2. Ignoring what I've been offered, What cooling parts would be ideal for the dual quad core system? (so far I only see apogee gt as working with socket F)
3. Does anyone have experience with cooling the chipset on the L1N64, since I've heard it runs hot?
