Sainou-Kun Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 Hey there guys. Long time no post =) Hope everyones been doing well. Anyways, I'm about to build a new top of the line pc and I deff want to go water cooling. Ill list all the links to the parts ive been looking at at the end of this post. I need something that will be able to handle all the heat from the parts, and still run nice and cool. I want to cool the Processor and my video cards. Im on a budget of about 400 bucks.. I may be able to go a bit over but try and keep it in that range. Ill be needing water blocks, tubing, Pump, Reservoir, clamps.. If you can make me a list of stuff, give me tips, any advise..ect Ill take it! And thanks in advance! Heres that list...

Verran Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 That link was pretty informative RR. I didn't know that Swiftech had a block to fit the 8800's. It's nice to know that the $130 DD block isn't the only option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 in addition to DD's full coverage block, the DD Maze 5 has an optional alternate mounting plate to fit the 8800 cards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
