To Kit or not to Kit

retsgtcas · Sep 23, 2006

Im going to WC my rig, but dont know if I should buy a Kit or not. I was thinking about this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118120

I also need to buy a bigger case, since I only have a mid-tower and am running out of room.

What case, in you guys opinion would give me the most flexibility, ease of movement and space for later modding?

Thanks for the help.

What benefits do you want out of WC'ing your rig? Quiet? Cooler than Air?

If you want performance cooling, I'd get a custom-built WC setup, or a Petra's Tech kit. Also, Swiftech makes good kits. I wouldn't get a DD-kit, I'm not a big fan of their CPU blocks.

I want a quieter rig. Im also looking to see how far I can push both the CPU and GPU.

There are some very good kits on the market today. IMO the one that you listed is not one of them. I would take SolidxSnake's advice and either go with a Swiftech kit or one of Petra's.
