Whats the difference? Apart from the price and my 460 is Red.

Would 1L of Red Pastel do or do I need 2?

KiiYzOo · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:10

the one I linked is 768mb like mine is, and it's cheaper

you'd be better going for two litres

Okaii.
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-044-OE&groupid=962&catid=1530&subcat=1775 Would that be ok. I know its slightly more expensive but I think it looks nice.
You didn't pick up on the 240 Rad

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-077-EK
Would that be ok? And where'd ya get the brackets and do ya think you can show some pics of your brackets etc.

KiiYzOo · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:19

I know, as the 2500k doesn't run very hot

but it does look better with a 360mm rad

Hyburnate · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:20

So you just put them over the edges and screw the rad in?

KiiYzOo · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:23

kind of like how you screw the fans onto the rad

Hyburnate · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:25

Sort of getcha, also where did you place your pump?

KiiYzOo · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:27

here

you should put it somewhere better

I only put it there, as any other place would not let me have the tubing how I wanted

KiiYzOo · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:32

I disagree, I wouldn't use a 560Ti and the Corsair is much better for PSUs.

.

KiiYzOo · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:48

Swap those two over then, and you'll have a very good build

Hyburnate · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:50

Whats the difference?

KiiYzOo · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:52

It'll be a bit cheaper and have a 360mm rad

Hyburnate · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:55

You and your 360 Rad, you'll have to wait and see once its delivered (I don't know how long its gunna take tbfh, might do it over Christmas)

Where do I put the coil?

KiiYzOo · 18 Oct 2011 at 23:58

I put mine in my res, as do most people

Hyburnate · 19 Oct 2011 at 00:00

Well that is where mine will be positioned, where did you get your anti kink stuff from?
