Best watercooling parts for......

R3E Mobo - Not sure I am going to watercool the N/B & S/B but would like to see the water block for this (One you guys recommend)

980x Extreme CPU - Water Block

2 x GTX 480's - Water Block

Fans

Rad

Pump

I have a bitpowers Topper & bitpower fitting I won from the Aries Comp, which I will be using....

I'm guessing will need to loops..... all this will be going into the Lian Li A77 FB Case

I have spent alot on this system already, and I don't want to compromise on the quality of the water cooling kit.

Bitspower ftw hayles. They have an RE3 block coming soon and a 480 block out already.

CPU block wise it doesnt make that much of a difference alsong as you get a decent brand as the 980 is cool anyways. Rad wise Thermochills still have the crown and you obviously need a DDC ultra for a pump.

You need 2 loops though, which means 2 rads, 2 pumps 2 res ect as the GPU's need their own dedicated loop.

You will need a few more black bits for those loops too as you wont have enough.

i was writing that post as you were ures,regarding the pump tops

lol are thermochills not the best rads?

does koolance not make awsome blocks?

so its not bobbins just not accurate

what you need to be thinking about aswell is how your going to mount the gear inside.

if i' m correct, the case has space for two 140mm fans in the top and a 3 120mm's at the front?

i dont know if you can get a 360mm rad in the front without loosing all your HDD cages.

EDIT* silly me didnt read the fortress thread you guys had going.

I've found a thread on the EVGA forums you might be interested in.

This guy has just started building a rig with the same case you are going to use.

It will feature dual loop watercooling, just like your system.

Really, the build is very similar to yours.

EK makes top of the line blocks, cpu and gpu. Thermochill are the best rads money can buy. Everything else as far as tubing, reservoirs, etc is personal preference i think.
