Watercooling in my lian-li v1000 ????

[Thebug]

Well this is what it currently looke like

anyone else got one watercooled ?

would it affect the excellent cooling of this case by removing the 120mm fan at the back of the case, as this pulls air in instead of out.

i was looking at the thermaltake big water 735 as a starter kit as it has lots of good reviews.

im currently running my e6600 @3.4 with temps of 35 idle and 46 loaded would i see much of a difference on water ?

Thanks

no way your load temps are 46 c

down load orthos set priority 9 small fft's and report back with your temps after 10mins, using core temp to measure temps

id avoid anything from thermaltake water cooling wise and imo i can only recommend a custom kit, using a thermochill rad, apogee gtx or d-tec fuzion, and a ddc pump

your rear fan must be turned round if its blowing air in and imo id get rid of the fan over the gpu. you could fit a 120.1 on the back internally where the rear fan goes

you were right - so what do you reccomend

 

[stinka]

i recommend a custom kit as i said in my previous post

decide if you want internal or external rad

id post a spec me thread in cooling with your requrements

55C at 3.4 GHz sounds pretty good to me. Why do you feel the need to watercool?

im doing it just spent a small fortune on all the parts needed, gonna get a project log when i get the parts in, never properly used watercooling, played about with some cheap kit to get my self used to it all... and i've always wanted to share a project log with the community ( how sad ) so share i will
