I have been doing a fair bit with my pc lately and tbh I am finding the fans on my 680's very loud on max chat!

So it got me thinking about WC.

I would be extremely grateful if one of you kind people could spec me a WC set-up. Here is my spec-

NZXT Switch 810 case
i5 3570k cpu
EVGA gtx 680 superclocked signature 2 x2 gpu's

Also I only have a single dvd drive so if the xspc front bay res/pump is a good choice then I believe it will fit fine.

I also considered getting this then adding gpu blocks and anything else I would need for it on?

YOUR BASKET
1 x OcUK Tech Lab - V8 Watercooling Kit 240 £120.41
- 1 x Mayhems Ultra Pure H20 Watercooling Fluid 1L £4.99
- 1 x XSPC RayStorm CPU WaterBlock (Intel) £49.98
Total : £186.78 (includes shipping : £9.50).



Any help is most appreciated

Regards

Nick
 
120 of raddage per component

I'd buy the kit, 2 more fittings and a 240 rad. One on top, one in the bottom.

Personally, I'd go for a better pump like a D5 as I think it's worth the investment. The current pump should be fine in your loop, but a D5 will 100% be ok as your loop will be relatively high restriction.

As for fluid, get some cheap DI from halfords :)
 
as above, spend more now and save later....watercooling don't come cheap, my loop was nearly £620

it is the business though ;)
 
Sweet thanks for the spec! It's pretty much probably a extra 200 on top of what I thought I could get away with but I would rather do it properly if I'm to do it do il wait a bit and go for something like this!
