Watercooling.

VenomIreland

So, I was going to save up for a 1090T and an NH-D14, but now I'm thinking I'd like to try my hand at watercooling, after reading some more about it.

I'd like to do watercooling because I plan on Overclocking the living sh!te out of the 1090T, but I'm wondering about the cost.Also, how hard is it to set up a custom loop (none of that H50/70 sh!te)?


EDIT: Soli, please delete this, I've looked at the prices for a simple block and it's very expensive, no thanks

Yup, a couple of hundred for most basic CPU+GPU loops Only place with decent, cheap WC gear this side of the Atlantic is Pixmania ironically, but they make it all back with ludicrous shipping charges :(

I'm leaving this up with a note: watercooling and other esoteric cooling solutions are more the province of Tweaking & Modding

yeah it would cost in the range of 400 plus for anything even semi-decent

Yeah, I'm just gonna stick with my original plan of getting a D14 with the 1090T (might also save up and get a HAF X or something else beastly).

Generally only Lunacy Booth and custom SFF builds ever need to cross into the dark and murky sphere of watercooling; most enthusiast builds are plenty happy on Big Air

I have just recently spent silly money on wc and was hoping i could compare notes.

Mind you,you should still be able to oc the 1090T within an inch of its life with the D14.:rolleyes:
