bout rm800+ if calculate all the blocks and accessories... which costed me a bomb on cooling... i did so by upgrading 1 by 1... at start my setup is juz a mcr-220QP, nirox pump and apogee block.. then i add those blocks and change and upgrade things and took me bout more thn 1/2 year to get my desired loop complete...
temps are 38c-40c core temp idle for my opty 170 @ 1.45v and 49-50c load.
stock vcore temp is 36-38c idle, 44-45c load... quite decent cause my loop also cooling down my x1950XT which idle @ 41-43c, @48-50c load(NFS: Carbon)
ic ic .. nice setup, i have always wanted to venture in but the cost and risk just holding me back now .... besides it's really hard to get nice looping with the hardwares inside that keep on changing in my case ....

just changed my water pump from a nirox to a Laing D5 ..OMG the silence...its fantastic...couldnt understand how i could have managed to stand the rattling noise my nirox was generating for the last couple of months..

hahah.. one could understand the beauty of quiet when they experience it ...
once fall in love with silent there's no turning back
