I need to move to wc to get my Qx6700 temps under control. My goal is oc to at least 3.8GHz with reasonable temps (60 or below). I want reliable, quiet components. I'll be cooling my CPU and an 1900XT gpu.
Parts list so far:
CPU block: D-tek fuzion or Apogee GTZ (leaning toward the Apogee)
GPU block: D-tek fuzion (better option here?)
Pump: Swiftech MCP655
Rad: Swiftech MCR320 (PA 120.3 doesn't seem to be worth the extra cost)
Res: Swiftech micro
Tubing: 1/2" tygon with hose clamps
I'm thinking of mounting my rad in a window. In the summer I'll vent the hot air. In the winter I'll reverse the fans and pull in cold air.
Some questions:
- Will this be enough cooling for my system or will I need another rad?
- Is that pump enough for 1-2 big rads and getting water 3' up to window?
- Do I need a res, or would a fill/drain port be sufficient?
