Watercooling Shopping List - Cosmos 2

[JesseLactin]

I plan to get my hands on a CM Cosmos 2 when it comes out. Getting a reference PCB EVGA GTX 560 Ti DS means I can water cool it. When I get it, I'll only do a CPU loop first, adding the GPU in later in its own loop. My list is as follows:

CPU loop:

XSPC Rasa RX360 Kit : http://dazmode.com/s...roducts_id=1079

GPU loop:

XSPC Rasa RX240 Kit :http://dazmode.com/s...roducts_id=1116

EK GTX 560 full cover block

Misc stuff for NCIX:

(5) Startech 3 pin y-splitters :http://ncix.com/prod...ech%2Ecom%20Ltd

(1) Works 3 to 2 pin power Type C: http://ncix.com/prod...nufacture=Works (fan mod, need a windowed side panel)

Arctic Cooling MX-4: http://ncix.com/prod...rctic%20Cooling

Stock fan from a HAF 922/HAF X

If spacing is tight for the GPU loop, I'll replace the tubing and barbs w/ 3/8ID 5/8OD.

Is there anything I missed? The real problem I see with buying 2 XSPC kits is having 2 dual-bay reservoirs and an unused waterblock, anybody got a solution to that problem? There $30 more to buy everything separate, not including barbs and tubing (XSPC really outdid themselves on pricing, lol).

I would get a Laing DDC-1T 18W and run all of that in one loop with a XSPC top res ofcourse it's whatm mr Logan used in snow drift.

Oh and the EVGA 560 ti isn't a reference card... The twin cooler kinda gives it away

Crap, you're right. I need to buy the non-DS version. It is a non-reference design. Thanks for calling me on that one. Glad I made this thread.

i would also have the gpu on the 360 rad and the 240 for the cpu rather than the other way around.

I need to do CPU cooling first (very cold in my house). The XSPC Rasa RX360 kit is $209.99 on DazMode. The XSPC Rasa 240 kit is $189.99. It's $60 more with fans ($30), tubing($15.75) or barbs ($16.14) buy the RX360 kit together, than to put it together myself. Should I get that for CPU cooling? Or a hand-picked kit based on a 240mm rad?

CPU loop revised:

EK Spin Bay res: $74.99

XSPC Rasa RX240 $72.99

1/2" Barbs(12) $16

1/2" tubing (6'): $12-ish

fans??? no clue

pump??? prob DDC, maybe D5
