Hi All,

Finally taking the plunge (ha ha) on a custom watercooling loop. It's going to be cooling a pair of 660tis and a i7 990x.

My case is a Silverstone TJ10 and here is my current list of components.

EK-CoolStream RAD XTX (480) £98.98 (£82.48)
XSPC X2O 750 Dual Bayres/Pump (Black) V4 £59.98 (£49.98)
Aqua Computer Aquaero 5 LT USB Fan-Controller £56.99(£47.49)
EK Water Blocks EK-Supremacy Clean CSQ £51.95 (£43.29)
2 x EK Water Blocks EK-VGA Supremacy £39.98 (£33.32)
Koolance 4x120mm Fan Radiator Shroud, Black £32.99 (£27.49)
EK CoolStream Radiator XT 120 (120.1) £26.99 (£22.49)
2 x Alpenföhn Passive DRAM / VRAM Chip Coolers £11.99 (£9.99)
7 x Noiseblocker BlackSilent Pro Fan PL2 Fan - 120mm £9.98 (£8.32)
Bitspower G 1/4" Temperature Sensor Stop Fitting - matt black £9.98 (£8.32)
2 x Primochill Primoflex Advanced Tubing 19/13 - Clear £5.99 (£4.99)
12 x EK PSC Compression Fitting 13mm 3/8" - G1/4 - Black Nickel £3.79 (£3.16)

I've gone for the Koolanace radiator shroud as there's not really enough room in the top of the case for a decent rad and fans, so this will allow me to fit a good sized radiator with the fans basically sitting on top of the case rather than in it. I've also currently got a second 120 rad, but wonder if that's unnecessary.

Any thoughts, suggestions really appreciated!

Been doing a bit more radiator research and I'm now considering the Black ice sr1 or xspc rx series.

What is recommended.

Best,
