Watercooling uATX?


Javve

Recommended Posts

I'm playing around with the idea of watercooling a http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?...N82E16819115028 intel core 2 duo E6850 3ghz processor in a uATX case with a gpu block on a Geforce 8600Gts video card http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?...N82E16814150228.

 

Would a swiftech 1/2" ID system using a single 120mm rad and the Swiftech MCP655 12 VDC Pump along with a 5.25 bay reservoir keep the system considerably cooler than a good (quiet) heatsink/fan?

 

I would be using a radbox to mount the radiator on the outside of the case: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?...N82E16811144161

BTW, I would be using a swiftech apogee gt waterblock for cpu and mcw60 for vga.

 

Once I have figured out what I'm going to use for sure, a sig would make things a lot easier :nod:

I'd certainly use 1/2" tubing :)

 

The MCP655 is a good pump choice ;)

 

Since you'll want to cool CPU and GPU; you'll need at least a dual-fan RAD, preferably a triple-fan setup.
