Hey guys,
So i decided to move from my air setup to WC to help bring the temps down as well as reduce the noise levels in my case (it sounds super loud right now). For the past 3 days, i have been doing tons of research and i think that for the most part i know what i want to get. However, there are still 2-3 things that i need some advice on so i turn to you for some help. Here is a list of the items that i am considering at the moment:
Rad- Swiftech MCR320
CPU Block- Swiftech Apogee XT for i7
Pump- MCP 655
Reservoir- either the DD RAD reservoir or Swiftech micro R2
now here is what i need help with:
1) What fans would you recommend for a good combination of performance and sound? i want to use good quality fans but i don't want them to be super loud.
2) what would you recommend as far as tubing and fittings? i think that i would like to go with compression fittings and tygon tubes but i am not really sure what would be the best size that would work with that pump and system. yes, the sizing of the tubes and fitings is confusing the hell out of me
3) Do i need anything else? i am trying to think if i am missing other hardware or misc. items.
In the future i will probably add GPU cooling as well but for now, i think that this will do. and btw, my plan is to use it in the corsair 800D case so space is not an issue even for a large pump, reservoir and rad.
Thanks for all the help!!!
