Hey guys,


So I'm thinking it may be time for me to move things up a little. My current WC setup as served me very well over the past 2 years, but with a potential PC upgrade to Haswell-E (or if the AMD counterpart is equally as good) around the corner I thought I might as well upgrade the WC too.

So I am definitely going to be getting a 900D - There is no question about it, I want this case. I love the 800D and the 900D just oozes the qualities I like.

So things I need to spec for.

1) Do I go Hard Line tubing? - How difficult is it?
2) I'm going to need a pair of 480 Radiators - any particular suggestions? I want my fan's to be running at no more than 1400RPM in the new build and I will not be running a Push/Pull config.
3) Should I bother getting an additional 240? - I'm only cooling a 290X and CPU, but may consider adding the chipset and RAM to loop, I do OC and plan to OC the new CPU's too.

As always much appreciated for the suggestions
 
Good choice I approve :D

Get 2x hardware labs sr1s and try and source some gentle typhoons.

I use ^^ and a ddc 18w/xspc bay res and its almost silent.

I dont think you'll need another 240mm even for mobo/ram. 2x480 happily keep my cf7970 and i7 3820 below 30 idle and below 60 load.
