Another "spec me a loop" thread.

Hi all,been out of the loop (see what i did there) for a while and need a full set up please.

ill be cooling the cpu and card and it will be going in a corsair 800d.

The cpu is a i7 920 and the card is a Gigabyte Windforce 670 2Gb (3 fan card)

Would a triple be enough for both of these as i wont be overclocking much.

Not sure if i want a tube res or combo but i DO want a d5 in the mix.

Dont want to use dye's and will use distilled water will a silver kill coil.

Would like both blocks black if possible please and a back plate for the card.

Any help would be helpful

Forgot to add,I'll be using 6 corsair sp120 fans as I have already got 4 on my h100,would they be ok with a thick rad ?

Schizo · 11 Apr 2013 at 10:36

I'll use mayhems but only natural and no colour.

If I use the 6 corsair fans,cod I turn them down lower than using only 3 fans running a bit higher speed.

That looks fine,but one problem,I don't like the new ek blocks with those circles on them

Sorry to be a pain,should have put that in the opening post.

Schizo · 11 Apr 2013 at 23:59

Oh,might have to stick with the circle ones then,there going to be inside the case anyway

I've had one of them pumps and they are very loud,I had the kit for it which included the foam but still vibrated a hell of a lot.

Would try another one as long as it was quiet.

You will need 10x fittings and tubing in your chosen size, plus the fans you have and whatever coolant you decide to go with. I still don't think your going to need 6 fans as the rad is much thicker than a H100 and 1.5x the length plus its copper not alu, but its your choice

I like that spec,might get a tube res instead of a bay res but other than that it looks good.

Right,been looking around for some ideas and come up with this lot.

Going to mount this lot where the 140mm fan is on the middle panel of the 800d.

Good idea or not ?
