Hope you can all give me some advice , im am obsessed with giving this watercooling lark a go , i have been looking at various threads & the watercooling case gallery for some pointers ...

What i really need to know at the moment is a complete list of the parts i will need to do this , will only be cooling cpu & graphics card ( c2d e6750 & 8800gts)

I will need pump & res ( think you can get both combined ) , hose , cpu block , graphics card block , coolant and a rad , but do i have to buy all the couplings , clips ect also or do you get any of them supplied with the other parts....

ANY HELP MUCH APPRECIATED
 
THanks for the reply Raiderx.... was going to go custom route anyway as i feel you can probably get a better setup for the same price as a kit job
Advice also taken on res & pump , will buy clips if required but still not sure i need any more fittings for the pump / res / rad to connect all up , again is that a separate purchase

One more thing , i know you leektest outside case prior to install , once installed will i need to bleed the setup for air & if so whats the procedure for that

Thanks for your time ....
 
i didnt leaktest mine after fitting it all, just make sure all the barbs are tight, the feser one is non-conductive so wont damage anything if it gets onto them, for the bleeding, just leave the fillport on res open andshake the case a bit, tip the rad up so that the parbs are up top to force the air out

You make it sound so easy ....but seriously thanks for the advice........

As they say there's only one way to find out ..... ( the hard way )
