Greetings!
I've long been wanting to do a liquid cooled build, a month ago or so I started on my little project and I'm about to order the last bits and bobs needed.
Seeing as I'm an utter noob at this, I'd love for some of you experienced people to look it over and see how you like it, if there's anything I should/could do differently and if I've utterly effed it completely sideways.
I'd really appreciate it!
I'll be doing the build in a Silverstone Fortress FT02 case, the black window edition.
Plan so far is to use the EK Supremacy CSQ Universal CPU Waterblock, the Full Nickel edition.
I've got a Gigabyte GTX670, far as I can tell it is using a 680 PCB, read some places that you can fit an Alphacool NexXxoS NVXP on the card, if anyone know that this is in fact impossible, I'd love to know!
For the rad I've already purchased a triple 180mm Magicool radiator.
Been a right pain getting it in the way I want, but I think I got it working, might be more on that later.
The pump and reservoir I aint sure about. Was thinking of a XSPC X2O 750.
Suggestions are most welcome.
So in summary:
In terms of looks; I am planning on black Compression Fittings, transparent tubing (or white, if that's possible? Can't seem to find any), white Mayhems Pastel.
My motherboard is a Sabertooth 990FX, once Haswell comes out mid next year, the plan is to switch to Intel with a similar looking motherboard, so I really want to keep the colours in the black/white/military range.
Made a quick little picture-type-diagram-thingy to outline how I plan to run the tubes and such, should be attached.
Any tips, tricks, suggestions and whatnot are most welcome!
Thank you very much ^^
