Hi everyone,
This is my second post and in a few words, I have decided to jump totally into the deep end and do what I do best, get myself into trouble. I have decided to build.... or at least try to build a high end custom cooled build. After a heap of research and reading, I have managed to devise a list of parts and components I want to include in the build.
I won't go through that in this thread as it's for cooling suffice it to say I have purchased a couple of D5/MCP655 pumps and a couple of Bitspower Pump Kits with a Dual Mod Top. I intent to run a dual pump config with the 1 loop, cooling the CPU, Mother Board, RAM, GPU and Aquaero 6. I think I should be OK with the 1 loop, I hope anyway.
So my dilemma now is the radiators and the fans. I should mention I am going with the Case Labs Magnum STH10 or TH10. I think however it will be the latter, only because of the space limitations in the STH10. So anyhow, I have heard and have been told that as a beginner I should be concentrating on using 120mm fans. This would mean that 140s would be a more complicated set up. Great, so if that is truly the case, I would like to go with 140mm fans.
My intention would be to run 2x560mm rads and another rad probably a 420. I would really ove the build silent and powerful and this is where I get stuck.
I would love to have push pull on the 560s but have heard that will make it louder. Would anyone be able to help me with my choice. I have been looking at the NoiseBlocker Black Silent Pros and ELoop but also the Noctua, but when it came to the rads, I really got stuck.
So can anyone suggest a fan and rad combination that is going to be well and truly quiet with great performance. Not to sound like a hero, but I really don't have a budget in mind, as long as they are not ridiculously priced, that's OK.
I am ultimately wanting to over clock the hell out of the system and soon will post my specs on the site.
I hope someone can help me out, it's great to be here.
