Hi every one , im in the middle of sorting my upgrade , and im at the point where i feel i would like to try overclocking my system when its finished.So i think im best off going with a custom loop .
ive ordered x3 msi 970 so i dont think i will need to include these in the loop , never really been into GPU overclocking so my main point of focus will be the cpu.
What are your reccomendations to cool a haswell-e 5930k to run 24/7 at 4.2-4.5ghz.
i have a CM stacker 935 so i have plenty of space to house 1 or 2 360 rads.What do you reckon then peeps , Rad,Pump,Res,Pipe,Fittings,CPU block and coolant. Can this be achieved , i know its still early days with the haswell chips but i would like to get it right first time.

Thanks in advance colin.
 
I'd wait for GPU blocks and do it properly from the off. If not then I'd recommend just getting a H105 type AIO cooler.
If you have space for 2 360mmx 60mm thick rads then not doing the gpu's is barmy :)

EK supremacy EVO cpu block
3 GPU blocks
2 360x60 rads
EK DCP 4.0 pump/res
14 16/11 compressions
2 meters primoflex tubing
Mayhems fluid to suit :)

If you really are gonna just WC the cpu then drop down to 1 360x60 rad.
 
Some guy mentioned that the 670/760 blocks fit the 970, and they're £45 a pop :)
"Proper" 970 blocks will probably be around £80-85.
 
yea i noticed that in a previous thread but will they fit a non ref 970 msi gaming? im not sure never done this before :D , thanks for the input so far
