ive been sorta whoring out the poor guys in the Jab-Tech 50% off everything cyberdeals thread for my advice,
so i figured id move myself down here where it belongs,
if anyone has any advice, please feel free,
just dont hold me back!
i have some freetime and a goal!
lets see, there was a killer deal on parts so i went out and picked what i figured were the best parts i could still snatch that were still in stock,
i nabbed 2x Swiftech MCR320-QP-K Triple 120mm
( http://www.jab-tech.com/swiftech/swi...or-matt-black/)
and the pump is a Swiftech MCP655 Sale Price: $64.95 couldn't pass it up
( http://www.jab-tech.com/pumps/swifte...9-12-vdc-pump/ )
for the cpu block i am really looking hard at the The Apogee XL its only like $65 before tax and shipping, and its copper
my case is a Corsair Graphite Series 600T
i5 2500k
and a gtx 670 single card ( but i may grab a second one down the line)
ive got an antec kuhler on my gpu
http://www.overclock.net/t/1203528/official-nvidia-gpu-mod-club-aka-the-mod/2540#post_18686833
those are the photos of my gpu and the aio cooler
shameless copy and paste of my last post
so, i can only find like 2 diff blocks for my 670
i also need to find a handful G1/4 Threaded Stop Fittings, they are being rather elusive.
there is an ek EK-FC670 that comes in 2 flavors black top and clear top
Nickel CSQ
and or
Acetal + Nickel CSQ
everything looks the same to me between the two of em
the EK's appear to only have 4 g 1/4 ports, which suit me just fine,
but on the main page they basically say that they recommend the extra like $30 Backplate
( http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16...l=g30c311s1708 )
( http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16...l=g30c311s1708 )
and thers the XSPC Razor
( http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16...ce_Design.html )
an acrylic top for aesthetics we have a thin stainless steel plate between the copper base and the acrylic. This allows us to use LED lighting, while keeping the strength and reliability of an all metal waterblock.
thing is, the XSPC Razor has freaking 7x g 1/4 holes....
and i have little doubt that it will come with that many plugs.
the last step i seem to have in the buy phase here is which gtx block, and also finding a hand-full of stops
, well i still do need a res
and at the bottom here is my shopping list sofar,
minus some other thermal paste and randoms from other places
