road-runner Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 My recommendations would be this kit and add the gpu block to it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pp3rkut Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 (edited) My recommendations would be this kit and add the gpu block to it... After reading some reviews on the components in that kit, I was wondering how the temperatures you would see from that kit would compare to a high end air cooling system, say the Zalman 9700? Will I see significant improvement that would warrant the 200 dollar price tag in your opinion? Sorry to jump into your thread OP, I was also interested in putting a watercooling system together.

road-runner Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 I have four quad core rigs, three have Thermalright Ultra 120 Extremes on them and one has that kit with a Dtek GPU block in the loop. All are running OCed at the same vcore in the same house (same ambient). The water cooled one although it has the 2900xt in the loop runs about 2-3c cooler if that helps you any. Two of the coolers are lapped and one cpu, the water cooling is not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
exeter_acres Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 you MAY NOT get any cooler temps with water.... what you get is much more stable temps... and much quieter! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
