I've been using a waterchill tripple rad watercooling kit now for at least 5 yrs. It's outlived 3 processors and 3 graphics cards. (not that any of those 6 broke, they just got old....)
Anyway I'm about to rebuild my system - basically building the PC into a desk, and breaking it out of an old big case.. Should I let sleeping dogs lie or should I upgrade anything.
The loop has a hydor L20 pump, with the impeller glued to make it quiet, a 120mmx3 radiator, an old CPU block clamped on to a q9450 in an unusual way - and a 9800 card which had a factory installed waterblock- my little luxury.
It's all on 10mm tubing and the CPU block will only take 10mm tubing.
So......
How much benefit would I get from updaitng - and how should I think of updating. The CPU clocks to a modest 3.4, the graphics to an impressive 1Ghz , and temps are around 45 degrees for CPU 52 for graphics.
