Queenz Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 No, I don't think any kit is good unless it's a custom kit. Usually with cheapo kits your better off sticking to high end air cooling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
abid Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 hmm.. what could be the different between custom kit and complete kit? and what high end air cooling u recommend? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maj0rgamer Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 (edited) it may not be highest end, but antec makes a sweet case with the antec 900. Comes with two front fans and a rear exhaust fan (looks like 120mm) with blue led's and a big fan on top (perhaps 200mm). With a decent cpu cooler, you should expect some really low temps...plus you could get a side fan and another fan to put inside for a total of like six fans in all plus the power supply fan if you really wanna overclock and pack in the video cards. you should expect to just about cut those idle temps in half under load Edited December 7, 2008 by Maj0r Gamer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queenz Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 hmm.. what could be the different between custom kit and complete kit? and what high end air cooling u recommend? A complete or pre made kit is where all the stuff is there already in one package. That includes the radiator, pump, waterblock, tubing, fans, coolant, and other little bits and pieces you might need. The down side is that companies that make these put cheap crap into pre made kits. A custom kit would be where you go and buy all the parts separetely and you get good parts and you get to pick the stuff you want too. A custom kit will run you more money but it's worth it. If you don't want to spend alot of money on watercooling get the Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme (TRUE). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
