Hey folks given this is only my second water cooling build I'm looking for ideas of what to do. So I've ordered myself a nice new corsair 780T and i've been trying to figure out what to do. Looking at using one brand (EK simply because i prefer the look of their WB)
So far the spec I've come up with is as follows.
YOUR BASKET
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-FC R9-290(X) - Nickel Rev.2.0 £87.95
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-D5 Vario X-TOP Incl. Pump - Plexi £84.95
2 x EK CoolStream RAD XTX (360) £74.99 (£149.98)
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-Supremacy EVO - Nickel £52.99
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-RES X3 250 Reservoir £51.98
2 x Monsoon 16/10mm (ID 3/8 OD 5/8) Free Center Compression Fitting Six Pack - Black Chrome £24.95 (£49.90)
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-FC R9-290X Backplate - Black £20.99
Total : £508.33 (includes shipping : £8.00).
Obviously doesn't include 45/90 fittings yet but I'm sure I'll need a few at some point or the tubing might even go with a larger diameter (would love acrylic tubing but currently beyond my skill level). fans most likely NB eloop
