i planning to build a water cooling system
so decided to buy a swiftech 655...

can it handle all these resistance:
Swiftech Apogee + Asus Maximus SE (stock cooler) + one 2X120 radiator, one 1X 120 radiator...

and wat if i wanna add a HDD cooler...mayb thermaltake...
or a GPU cooler later on?

i think it should be sufficeint.

is a hdd waterblock worth it?

It's strong enough to complete ur loop ..

As for the HDD block, it's not necessary coz HDD doesn't need to much of air to keep it cool ..

if u are using a HDD that's cool in nature it would be better than cooling the hot HDD .. too much of effort that doesn't make too much of difference.

well...if are looking at the aspect for silent cooling...then this should do good. A sufficient air blowing at the hdd will also do the job.

i have a TT hdd waterblock, but never plug in my WC loop, just simply install in my 3.5" bay.

655 pump is enough to handle CPU, VGA and even chipset block, for TT hadd block better don't put it in loop. it hurt your performance. unless u go for two loop. i plan on this too.

why 2 radiators curiously enough? and no, you don't need a HDD cooler. That's pure bling and TT stuff? Don't bother since their flow restrictive comparatively

hdd blocks dont work.. adn thats proven.. best gains are a small degress drop.. (tested are the antec blocks, danger den and TT blocks) a silent fna blowing at it cools it much beter...

neway ur pump is more than capable of pumpin thru all that..
