J2k Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Hi, I'm building a WC rig and just need to know some information about some parts Out of these pumps which is the better set up DD / Laing DDC-12V 18 Watt Version 3.2 http://www.dangerden.com/store/product.php...t=23&page=1 with this top XSPC - Laing DDC Top http://www.jab-tech.com/popup_image.php?ty...0Top&area=C or this pump Swiftech MCP655 12V Industrial Water Cooling Pump 1/2IN Barbs http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku...acture=Swiftech Also, I am currently going with this res http://www.jab-tech.com/Swiftech-MCRES-Mic...-2-pr-4312.html but would this one with the Danger Den pump be better? http://www.jab-tech.com/XSPC-Acrylic-Reser...DC-pr-4123.html and which is the better radiator FeserOne X-360 http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku...ure=Feser%20One Black Ice GTX 360 http://www.jab-tech.com/Black-Ice-GTX-360-...or-pr-3613.html Swiftech MCR320-QP-K Triple 120mm Radiator http://www.jab-tech.com/Swiftech-MCR320-QP...or-pr-3320.html Thanks alot.

Onion Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 (edited) I would go with these parts. http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku...acture=Swiftech http://www.jab-tech.com/Black-Ice-GTX-360-...or-pr-3613.html And a T-Line. I recommend 5/16 ID tubing (even if it's a PITA to get onto that pump) because it's like 1/2 ID without all the bulk. For the t-line, pick up a tee from petrastechshop.com. The OD of the tee has to match the ID of the tubing. You would need a 5/16 OD tee for your system if you get 5/16 ID tubing. Btw, you really dont need a 360 mm rad if you are not cooling a quad and sli video cards. I am cooling a quad with a 240 mm rad and it works just fine. Also, for rad fans, get these, they are a bit on the loud side of quiet, but they push more are than almost every fan in it's class. http://www.petrastechshop.com/12scsysstcaf4.html Edited January 3, 2009 by l33t p1mp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still pretty noobie at this. and trying to wrap my head around WC'ing Go with the Laing pump and the top, and the swiftech radiator, I use a t line on 2 rigs and a reservoir on another, I had one laying around so... A reservoir makes it a lot easier to fill and bleed but is not necessary. Also I use 7/16" tubing on my 1/2" fitting, not sure about that 5/16" never heard of it myself. The Black Ice radiators are harder to get air through, so if you go that route get some high cfm fans... Edit: Which cpu block are you looking at?

J2k Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I would go with these parts. http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku...acture=Swiftech http://www.jab-tech.com/Black-Ice-GTX-360-...or-pr-3613.html And a T-Line. I recommend 5/16 ID tubing (even if it's a PITA to get onto that pump) because it's like 1/2 ID without all the bulk. For the t-line, pick up a tee from petrastechshop.com.

At this moment it is going for a C2D solely, then later on it will be for a Core i7 and NB setup, I'll have another loop set up for a sli setup, so this loop right now will solely be cpu and nb. also, how do you like your Rad ? and is the MCP655 better than the Danger Den pump? edit Go with the Laing pump and the top, and the swiftech radiator, I use a t line on 2 rigs and a reservoir on another, I had one laying around so...

The CPU block I'm looking at is the Apogee GTZ http://www.petrastechshop.com/swapgtzcpuwa.html and what top was that? the first one or the res top? I don't really know anything about T-lines, so I'm not trying to get too advanced into things yet. Thanks for the replies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 The laing DDC top, I would pick the swiftech reservoir if you going with a reservoir. A T line and fill port just takes the place of the reservoir to give you a place to fill and bleed. heres an example picture...

J2k Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the pic,I'll think about the T-line, but most likely end up with the swiftech res. also my case is the cm stacker 830, so i should have room for all this right ?
