Liquid Cooling

[Valdin]

Ok I have finally had to give in. I never in a million years thought that I would need to use a liquid cooling system for my computer. The day has finally come to order one.

I am currently running an intel 9750 overclocked to 4.2GHz
x2 Radeon HD 4870x2 overclocked to 2.3GHZ per card
8G on board ram
1700W PS
128 SSD HD
x3 300G 10K Raptors

And i think this week i might order a new motherboard and the new intel i7 chipset. And if what they say is true they are releasing the new 3-way crossfire motherboards for 3 video cards.

Aww yours makes mine and Horizonz computers look like 5 year old dells...

I by no means would do this myself, but wouldn't it be cool to make one of those submerged in liquid cooling rigs? Anyway given the seriously overclocked nature of your computer, I would think water cooling would be a given. If you got room between the cards, get the GPU block's too.

The plan right now is to run the x2 GPU blocks on each card and then the CPU block on the i7. I was fine until recently and i heard that if you get the i7 if you overclock it it is just a crazy heat maker.

My cooler master case runs 4120mm and 2 140 mm fans in it and i have never had a problem. But since i am getting a new processor next week i decided to see how far i could push the 9750 and it is generating more than i thought.

Koolance has a lot of good stuff and its high quality. to do the custom rig that i need for my computer its going to cost me about one thousand. Oh and Campbell i sat on the Hardcore gamerz site for almost an hour staring at the buy button for a submerged system. if it wasnt almost 5k for a good one i would have one.
