Cooling Would it work ??

Okay now i finally get it...

I'll rerokate the system as soon as i get my fan grills and i get the blow-holes made... then there's also time to work with the watercooling...

 

You're right Haddy... for clarity I should probably say "before the pump" rather than "last in the circuit"... I just assume that the pump is where it all starts, so I tend to think from there...

d'oh!

 

Okay now i just relocated the system...

how's this ??

 

sounds good...

but instead of:

pump > blocks > rad.

id have:

pump > rad > blocks.

and i really arnt going to see much point in cooling that GPU block.

the water running through the block will be the heat taken off the CPU...

You all may say it will be fine but is there a point in watercooling it when it will be far better on quiet air?

just my thoughts.

thanks,

water in a watersystem is really able to handle the heat from a CPU, GPU, Hard drive and Chipset all in one loop. It genuinely is not an issue.

Only peltiers should not be shared with other cooling bits and need a circuit of their own.

I however do feel that passive cooling such as zalmans it a very good route to take with a CPU cooled with water. Particulary at the beginning. I do question as to whether chipset cooling is only a gimmick anyway. Soyo don't even both with thermal paste behind their dragon plus mobo's. But they look pretty and sell well.
