new to water cooling. need advice
- Thread starter sage0030
- Start date
Personally I like the Thermaltake Big Water 735. I'd personally say its a pretty nice system, but not everyone would completely agree with me, so don't just go out and buy it. Best advice I can give is to look at some of the threads here and just study up. Look at what people say about different products, and get what you think you might want in your system and ask about that.

Well, I'll be the first to disagree with darkpyro1 here. Thermaltake water cooling equipment is overpriced and just plain bad. You're better off buying a Corsair H50 than anything Thermaltake has ever produced with liquid in it.
Start off by reading the Water Cooling Guide for Beginners as well as some of our stickies to get your bearings. Once you're done, you'll probably have questions...come back and ask away!
