Hi OC Forum
I am new to Your forum but heard good things about u all.
So joined up to get some advice. If that's OK.
I going to spend 500 or more on my set up and don't wont it to fail.
been reading about setting up my first water cooling rig for the last 6 mouths. anyways ill jump into what i am hear for .
I am starting to buying my part over the next few weeks & have all ready ordered these 2 parts.
#1 Alphacool Reservoir Repack Cooling Slot-In 5.25" slot.
#2 Alphacool NexXxos Pro II Water Cooling Radiator 8 bar.
But i wont advice on my other parts more so.
First ill tell u what i am cooling in my pc.
so all i wont to cool is my Q9400 & my GTX285.
So i wont to run one loop for my CPU & GPU with two radiators
(1x120mm 2x120mm).
Like i wont it going from the reservoir,Pump,CPU block,1x120mm Rad,
GPU Block ,2x120mm Rad, Home.
So my question is would i need a dual pump for this or is one jump significant?
Like the jump i am looking at is Alphacool Laing D5 Water Cooling Pump Max Flow Rate 1500L/h.
So would this jump be OK ?
Also if u think i need to change my set up any advice would be appreciated.
Also the other parts i am ordering to complete this is Swiftech Apogee™ XT,
Swiftech Full Cover Heatsink GTX285, Swiftech MCW60-R Rev2 VGA Water Block ,Black Ice GTX 1x120 Gen Two Extreme Radiator.
I am going to run this on 3/8 tubing.
Also i going two rads coz i wont to upgrade to a i7 & two GTX285's maybe soon so preparing for it in advance.Coz they run real hot i been reading.
Sorry its so long but i just wont to get this right so it . any question feel free to ask. Hope u can all understand what i am trying to explain.
Thanks in advance ..
