I'm totaly new to water cooling so please bear with me.

I'm trying to speck anw PC out & cant find out much on internal Water Cooling systems.
Main Thread

I want a internal system that does a better job than standard air systems but is also fairly quiet.

Any Recomendations?

Thanks! :cool:
 
hm, looks kindof bulky & isnt entirely internal....wanted to avoid drilling holes in the case....
 
Don't need to drill holes with that kit... the rad bracket mounts on the back exhaust be it an 80mm or 120mm doesn't matter. Plus it would look cool when your buddies see it and ask what it is.

You wont have a problem. And you will be hard pressed to find someone that doesnt like that kit right now.

Umm, yeah...
Pretty much all water cooling is bulky ;)
 
The Thermaltake Bigwater SE kit dosnt look as big...

Well, If I dont have to Drill any Holes in the Case I guess it'd do, Can it handle both a CPU & Dual Liquid Cooled Gainward 7800's?
 
Simply put....No, it can't...

The pump can barely get the flow through one CPU, muchless with the addition of two GPU's.

Again, the Apex kit is the top of the food chain in W/C right now. That bigwater kit is what you should be questioning whether or not it can handle those cards.

IMO Bigwater will not outperform solid air cooling soloutions. Apex ;)
 
If you get a CM Stacker case you could watercool with the APEX kit completely internally and not have to chop up the case at all.
 
Planning to get a Thermaltake Shark Case & dont want to have to chop it up at all.

I hope you're talking about the bigwater pump and not the D5 that's packaged with the APEX.

ok, then what do I get to Cool the GPU's? :confused:

Since you are running SLI, you would need to buy 2 SLI GPU blocks, and extra tubing. I don't know what other solutions there are, but I belive dangerden sells sli blocks.
