Water Cooled System
Posted: Sat Nov 18, 2017 15:04
So I am going to be planning a new build after reading some of the threads on here about graphics cards and realizing how out of date my system is. With the new build I want to finally get some liquid cooling going on so I can overclock the cards and the processor and get peak performance. I also thought that it might be possible to have something on the side of the PC that works as an equalizer somewhat like those dancing water speakers that I could hook up to Resolume, that water would not be able to be part of the cooling system but I thought it would be cool anyways.
Can anyone recommend some good liquid cooling I could look at? I am currently planning on getting an i7-7700K processor, ASUS Maximus IX Hero MOBO, and a GTX 1080 Ti graphics card in a top end Corsair case so there should be a good amount of room for the tubing for a liquid cooler. With those specs in mind what would be some good coolers to look at? I am trying to focus on performance but looks is very important as well, so customizable LED tubing or something similar would be awesome. Thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully offer some suggestions
I was looking at deals for liquid cooling online and found someone selling there old system on http://www.for-sale.co.uk/pc-water-cooling so they could upgrade to something even more expensive and after talking with the guy he agreed to come over and give me a hand putting it all together. We had a blast and the case is looking great, I have some extra RAM coming in the mail soon that I forgot to order and after that the rig will be ready to go! So excited, now just gotta try and get an external equalizer going on somehow. Good thing my new friend is going to help me plan that out as well.
