recommendations for rocketfish case

moho · Mar 18, 2008

anyone want to recommend me a WCing setup for my new rocketfish case?
I am getting a IP35-E, as well as a E2180. Ill probably go QC after a month or so.
price isnt really THAT big of an impact, i want to keep it all under $250 though...

love your location, lol.
anyways, i love my apogee gt, i heard good things about the fuzion as well. are you planning on gpu/nb as well or just your cpu? depending on what you wanna cool, a triple rad is what i would recommend. i use 1/2" ID, i know some people prefer 7/16" ID for yout tubing. clearflex is alot cheaper than tygon and just as good from what i can tell.

i wouldnt recommend a full block for the gpu, just cause of the cost and how if you decide to upgrade, you will have to buy a new block. not sure what good gpu blocks are out there though. mcp655 is a great pump and quiet to boot.

I would keep the loop to just the CPU and GPU, air is good enough for the anything on the mobo especially when you consider that the GPU and CPU are no longer heating up the inside of your case (or not near as much).

CPU
GPU
Vid card ram and power mosfets
Rad
pump
tubing amount depends on routing
clamps
T fitting
fillport

Option but suggested:

better mounting for fuzion
fuzion nozel kit

That's about it, good setup IMHO. What I'm using, I'll have the writup done in a few days when I get my last bits.

ok, ok, ill admit I am a cheap-o. (i dont want to spend over $150...)
I actually FOUND a Maze4 chipset block in one of my spare parts bins. I couldnt believe it. It is barely used too!

No to go find that Q6600

Are the bottom racks in the case removable?

One of them is (or so I've been told).

yeah, it is, there are 4 screws on the bottom of the case that screw into the hard drive bays. Both are actually removable, which i might do considering i will only be using 1 drive in the case.
