Okay so I'm sort of new to water cooling.
I'm currently water cooling on this box, but it's a ****ty kit, and a fanless one at that (zalman reserator v2).
It doesn't cool well at all, in fact my friend with the same computer parts but air cooling gets much lower temperatures than I do.
So with the next computer I build, I want to go for some water cooling that I choose the parts myself, like a Danger Den setup.
So I was looking at radiators, which seem to me to be one of the biggest things in how well the system can cool, and I'd really like to get a really big one, like the GTX360 or even 480.
However, when I was looking at computer cases, I couldn't find a computer case that had 4 120mm fan slots next to each other... I couldn't even find one with 3 120mm fan slots next to each other!
Can someone help show me some computer cases that have a bunch of 120mm fan slots next to each other so I can get a large radiator?
Also, is a large radiator like this the best thing to go with? Or should I instead go with two separate 120mmX2 raditors, one for the cpu and one for the gfx?
Thanks for the help guys.
