Hi everybody... can someone recommend me value watercooling kit like rad, pump and water block...
lately the graphic card's fan is so loud..

I'm using;
AMD Athlon II X3 3.1g (OC to 3.5g)
AMD Radeon 5670 (OC to 820mhz)

I know there is no water block for the graphic card. but the universal would do...
Is there any online "store" that can accept bank transfer (I have no credit card)... sad.gif

xspc got few kits, contact apes / cyntrix & provide your budget to them & what casing you are using.

Everything is included with xspc kits, tubing, fittings, pump, radiator etc....just buy the kit & fix it yourself, no need any other thing unless you want to watercool your graphic card too. Can ask either seller to fix it for you too...

Just need to buy the coolant, can get premix or get distilled water (cheapest option).

If I want to do watercooling to my GC, do i need to apply thermal paste to the VRM & RAM before installing the passive heatsink?

not really, xspc do produce good stuff...their radiator are cheap & very good...major companies out there are xspc, ek, alphacool & few others...

gpu if cant find full waterblock then you can use universal waterblock, you will need to PM the sellers to ask them smile.gif

yes, usually you need to remove the current thermal paste & apply new one. VRM usually if you buy full waterblock will come with thermal pads...need to apply that as well on the VRM's
