hi all, me and my younger brother are going on a watercooling adventure, now he is still in school and i refused to buy him new powerful pc parts so he wants to watercool the pc he already owns
please bear in mind that this will be just for fun and to see if there is a decrease in his temps and overclocking ability.
right, specs. -
intel i3 socket 1155
asrock b75 pro3-m
gtx 550ti
8gb teamgroup elite ram
dvd/rw non brander
1tb weston digital hard drive
now as this is just for fun and to introduce him into the watercooling world, we have agreed to watercool the processor, ram, and graphics card.
we will require a nice new case too.
now, i havent watercooled a system in a long time so this is where you come in, im worried we wont find a block to fit the graphics card, even the uni blocks might be to big. can anyone confirm.
the loop, ideally we want a loop with the processor and ram and a differnt loop for the card if possible, i was thinking, should i go for two differnt rads both double for pro and ram. and a single rad for gpu.
lastly componets, worth buying a kit and adding extras or totally custom whatever saves me money.
and finally i would like to say i know his specs arent top of the range but this is just abit of fun, im not spending aload of money i havent got for new parts.
so, what case, and watercooling parts you recomment for this project i willing to throw around 300 quid into it
