Hi guys,

I'm new to WC, planning to test out with the Swiftech's beginner's kit at the moment. Just to clarify certain things 1st.

1. For the liquid to be used, best choice is the Distilled water ? Can get those Spritzer Distilled water ? If use with the Hydrx, do it mix it with the distilled water, just 2 caps or pour all in ?

2. For the tubing, as adviced by MetalZone, the thickness should b 1/8" thick, is it easy to bend or twist ? Coz Planning to close back the side panel after installing it. I'm thinking of using the clearflex tubes, good ah ?

3. With a dual 120mm radiator, enuf to cool both CPU and chipset blocks ? I dun think it'll be enuf for VGA to be included together since the VGA are quite hot themselfs. My CPU is E6300 / AMD64 3500+ S939, chipset will be P965 on the DFI P965-S. Better to seperate ?

If my post here is redundant, kindly just remove it, just need to ask some questions, but dun think its a good idea to open a new thread unnecessarily.

Thanks in advance for all the advice.
