QUOTE(gto87 @ Aug 6 2010, 07:26 PM) Too all Taiko.. I'm a newbie in WC setup. ur planning setup is good already. for block u can try the heatkiller 3.0 or apogee xt. btw im using EK and it serve me very well and never had any prob b4 This is what I come up with after weeks of research 1. EK-FC5870 Nickel 2. TFC Xchanger - Quad Radiator 480 3. DD / Laing, D-5 12 Volt Pump with mounting bracket - with variable speed control 4. EK-Multioption reservoir 150 I haven't decide on which waterblock yet. Thinking of choosing EK but since Clawhammer posted all that links about how EK is not a very good product, maybe I will choose HEATKILLER revision 3.0 for socket 1366. I'm having trouble deciding the casing for this setup. Planned on using HAF932 but then surely have to change the RAD, right? Thanks in advance..   . i can tell u most of us here is using motherboard wb and vga wb from EK. like the R2E, R3E, 5870, 5970 V2 etc  and hardly heard them complaint. if its not a very good product then why ppl still buy EK and still be one of the best selling wc product for case that fit nicely with quad rad maybe can go for 800D or TJ07. if HAF 932 then u might have to change to 360mm rad.

if u r planing to wc cpu and gpu i think feser 360 rad is enough already because 5870 thermal power design (TDP) is not as high Nvidia highend gc, so it run much more cooler.. but if u got extra $$ its no prob to chose feser 480 rad coz u can get more headroom in oc & cooling.. for casing only TJ07 can fit 480 rad nicely at bottom without much mooding..if haf 932 myb mount it outside?... btw im EK WB user,in my experience yes there got some minor issue but its not the WB its good product,i satisfied with their made and perfomance u cant go wrong if u r choosing EK WB EK Supreme-HF Full nickel FTW!! |

Anyway, forgot to add another part in my WC setup. The Mobo block but that's solely because I have less idea on which one to use.
 I'm DFI DK user.Bro DzX, you got a point there. Will change my Rad to 360 for time being but forgot to mention that I'm planning to do a Push/Pull setup. Thanks Bro Monsh, supernothing, DzX, and ezzydamvp. |

Are there ready mounting holes that I could fix up the Rad? Thanks For the mounting hole, as long as got hole for 120mm fan then no problem to mount it. |

Common tubing size that wc user use is 1/2" 3/8" 1/4" 7/16" but in malaysia i only see 1/2" and 3/8".. 3. If dual pum running in a same loop,the water flow will be more higher (fast), the water flow will still running if either pum is off..but the flow will be slow bit like u used a single pum..actually its depend on ur wc setup,how may wb u wan to used, what type of rad ect..single pum + pum top is enough already imo for regular wc setup.. |

QUOTE(daxzero @ Aug 8 2010, 11:16 PM) icic... big & small tubing, those got diff function ? or flowing low or high ? hmmm..There is a debate within the water cooling community about what size tubing is superior... A 1/2" inner diameter system will offer higher possible flow rates than a 3/8" system, but higher flow isnt necessarily desirable... As long as water is moving in the system, it will spend the same amount of time in the radiator regardless of how fast its moving.. Just make sure all the components you purchase are compatible with whatever inner-diameter tubing you choose to go with... Tygon is the most resistant to kinks, but it is expensive.. |
