I would like to ask , is XSPC RS 240 kit worth investing in? This will be my first water-cooling rig.

The casing i'm currently using is Xigmatek Asgard 382 , does the radiator able to mount on top of my casing with the fan push setup?

I scare it will have clearance issue? Any sifu can help?

Since i'm located in Kuching , not much shop do water-cooling, and no local shop sell XSPC Kit , so i need to order from KL.

U got oc or no? if no, u wont notice any different. U need to measure the length between the top of casing until mobo...c can fit the rad with fans or no?
If u worry, u can ask Niclasteoh in onetj help u setup smile.gif

No overclocking , actually i planned to install watercooling just for good looking reason thought. What i scare is it touches the capacitor on the motherboard. Actually i called Niclasteoh for quotation of a custom watercooling kit , + installation etc roughly would be around RM700+ which is out of my budget thought. My budget was around RM600+/-, the kit would cost RM500 and shipping here would cost roughly RM30 (assumption) , installation charge by Niclasteoh RM65 exclude coolant yet, so the main problem here actually was my casing and side issue is my budget problem.

If you willing to help me install then different story la tongue.gif

Don't really know how to measure thought, >_< sweat.gif

ValityMental is the kit you're intersted in using a Raystorm block or a Rasa block?

If it's using a Rasa block, it won't do much for your looks, if you ask me, anyway.

Why not consider Swiftech's AIO solution instead? Works like a proper custom kit, but installs like a regular cooler, IIRC. Looks pretty mean too.

I'm not sure which one thought , but i know it's with led.

XSPC Raystorm X20 750 RS240

The reason i choose custom water-cooling is because of the tube only la thumbup.gif , the tube with coolant really thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Yeah. Haha. Thanks for the clarification smile.gif Totally new in pc world thought, just started a while.

I know , heard lots of them saying it's bad. I will grab the clear tube from Niclasteoh , if i'm not mistaken 1m is like rm20+/- . And i just need to buy distilled water and dye for it. Then i'm ready to go biggrin.gif , i don't wish to mount the rad and fan on top (Outside) the case , which gonna look bad. Was planning to buy new casing first , but if i buy casing first , then wc gonna be postpone for months again cry.gif

If you plan on buying the kit from WM, buy from APES or Cyntrix Technologies. They have better tubing options. You can ask for Clearflex/XSPC Premium tubing from Cyntrix or Primochill Advance LRT from APES. These are one of the better ones around.

If you buy from Cyntrix, I think he's got a custom XSPC starter kit so you totally won't get the stock XSPC tubing at all.

And if your clearance is only about 25mm, you will need to either:

1. Change case
2. Mount radiator elsewhere or externally

Good fans are typically 25mm so yeah.
