Hey guys, been rather inactive on the forums of late ( Uni work and exams etc!) but im looking to get a summer project going and get a simple but good watercooling loop made for my cpu ( and gfx card if i can afford it) At the moment i have my i7 @4.2 pretty much stable, using a thermaltake ultra 120 extreme which is keeping me around 39-44c idle which tbh i find a little hot. Specially as i go into the 60's while gaming.
Now i have wanted to get WC for a while and over the summer when ill have some expendable cash id love to make that a reality. I dont want one of those all in one loops u can buy from corsair etc but a proper loop which if i dont get my gpu involved this time round because of the price i would love to be able to at some later point.
Keep in mind in a total nab @ water cooling, so im not 100% of what parts to get, and what brands etc. I live in the UK btw and my price range is around £300 ( i dont want to spend much more)
conditions:- Want to have better cooling than my current cpu cooling,and also for it to be upgradable to incorporate 1 or 2 ati 5850's. Maybe im being too ambitious for the price, but please let me know
