View Full Version : watercooling
i have alot of money now and want to go watercooling. is the cooler master aquagate any good? i like it because it is reasonably priced and easy to setup. i have no idea what im doing and would probably screw somthing up.

heres alittle warning, dont get any of those external kits/units, they are total garbage. If you want a good performing watercooling setup look for blocks made by either Switftech or Danger Den, both make really high quality waterblocks. as for radiators the top choice for everyone seems to be the Black Ice series.
If you have alot of money, have you considered getting a prometeia, or another phase change cooler?

Bah....
I am so sick of water cooling...I'm about to scrap all my water cooling stuff and go back to air cooling. I can't get the water block to sit flush on top of my mobile Athlon 64. Really starting to piss me off. Right now I have all my new hardware running in an old case I have and I'm debating whether or not to just put my Lian Li and Danger Den kit on ebay. I'd really like to keep the case, but I modded it to put the radiator in. Tough Decisions.
yeah I was really horny for watercooling a while ago but then I saw myself trying to fit all the tubing and shiat in there neatly, cause I like my rig neat... And well then I saw myself getting pissed and punching a hole right through my mobo... not pretty lol
For the extra $200 I would rather buy a new mobo and cpu
how does this look for a setup?
Hydor L30 320GPH Pump
swiftech MCW6002-A waterblock
black ice pro radiator
tubes, water, clamps, and some arctic silver
am i missing anything or should there be any changes?
