Alright so ive had my layout and products picked out for awhile now and i actually officially started tonight when i ordered instore pickup at microcenter for a cpu waterblock and reservoir. Heres the prices ive managed to hunt down on everything.
Dangerden TDX Waterblock, socket 478 - $11
...i need to make a custom 775 backplate or w\e, psh i can handle it
370 - 480 gph pump - $20 - $25 havent decided yet later to be discused
Reservoir - $12
Swiftech Dual 120mm Rad - around $30
AquaXtreme Mp-1 Vga Waterblock - $27 or not who knows
Swiftech MCW30 Chipset Waterblock - $25
Tubes, Clamps, Coolant... - dunno but not to much
Alright for the questions...first off, will a dual 120mm rad be good enough for a 2-3 waterblock system...i dont know if space will allow for bigger. How will the TDX perform on a Q9400? How will the TDX perform versus nexxxos hp? And the pump... do i really need 480 gph (1.8k liters) or is 370 fine. If i wer to get the 480 what would be the performance increase? Does any one have some 4850 volt mod instructions cuz a waterblock would be worth it if not. Opinions on chipset (NB) watercooling, i heard somewhere that it was a big no and thats stuck in my head... plz tell me if im wrong. And finally how would overall performance look with this setup compared to my xigmatek? Predictions on a new stable cpu oc? Keep in mind i gotta stay cheap with this so dont recommend super expensive replacents. Sorry i no this is waaaaaaay to many questions but if you could answer just like one per person thatd be great. Ill post pics wen im done if ne one'd like, itll all be done early april.
Please post even a flame would be appreciated hell i might learn somethin.
