Project...Custom-Aqua-PC.

I would go X2, give ATI their glory for a while, as it will most likely be a good few yers before they are king again... 9800Pro etc
 
Get a test on CUDA enabled game and tell me any ATi is good :p

Its medium card at best with that involved so get a single and save for a mental dual card setup (ATi or NV).
 
Many thanks for your replied, if so I wonder my 850W PSU couldn't cope well with the X2.What do you regcon? and please help with the position of rads I was post early. Many thanks again.
 
Dont think your rad placement will be a problem as cases are not air tight. However to ease your mind have the 3x120mm pulling air in and the other two blowing out.

Your 850W PSU will be fine with a single X2... So long as it's of a good quality.
 
Here the plan for 360 rad, 240 rad and 120 rad. I don't know how to make a stand for the 360 rad:o:

So my case have no air intake but I got the HDD cage which is have one 120 and I plan to make another blow fan on top of the case (between the PSU and DVD drive). Do you guys thinks it OK for that set up? Mnay thanks or your help. :worship:
 
Anyone know what kind of heat sink I can use on Maximus Formula bacause I got water on 2 MOSFET and NB aready. Many thanks
 
Well something like the Zalman NB cooler or something similar might work, by a man and watercool it! :D Thats what I am doing with mine, and it ads to the "ooh shiney" effect. Regarding the X2 power requirements I think they said a 700w can take it, so an 850w should be fine, so long as you are not running 2 of them, they are power hungry beasts! Still cant top nVidias triGTX280, those things eat up something crazy like 250w each :D

Nice rad set up, tempted to get this case now seeing how spacious it is for radiators, my Antec 900 is a touch on the tight side for watercooling, I have to externally mount a 240mm rad on the side which is less than ideal, looks ace though ;)
 
Thanks for your advice GavX:), lopve to water the NB aswell but just think it so many tube might look not good. I did some job today but have to go out for 15 miles today..:rolleyes:

Strip it out

Hope to do some more tomorow after work. Happy working again guys, no more holday until Xmas..:mad::(
 
You could use L-shaped brackets for rad attachment. Pop rivet them to the case floor then screw the rad on.

At the min I have an HR-05 IFX on my Northbridge but it's giant.. I'd recommend one of these if you can't watercool it.

Have this one on my Southbridge

Thanks Bungral for that info :worship:, thinking should order one of those for my SB. NB I watercooling so overclock should be a problem.

Bear in mind that it might not fit so thermal tape would be a good idea..

Check if it does fit, and if not then buy some tape... It's very cheap.

Edit:

It's cheaper here and they sell the tape if the pins don't fit.
