well this will be my 1st every time building a computer i have already ordered all of the components for the pc i want hopefully they are all right (Y) lol once built im planning on building a watercooling system this system was designed for gaming/imaging/video editing/audio editing/CAD/ etc... my pc was built on a buget of around £600 but was streched a little this includes: the cooler masters silencio 550 case coolermaster gx650 psu coolermaster tx3 cpu cooler (just temp till water cooling is built) gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3 motherboard intel i5 2500k HD3000 1155 sandybridge cpu western digital caviar green 1TB hdd eudar 16GB DDR3 1333mhz dual channel memory MSI GTX 560 Ti twin frozr 2/OC a tenium HDMI cable logitech wireless mouse and keyboard and finally Samsung SH-S222AB/RSMS DVD re-writer most of these will be delivered today then 1 or 2 other parts tomorrow im concidering building a water coolant kit for the cpu only but as this is my 1st build im learning as i go and have never seen a proper water cooling kit used or be fitted so will probably be asking quite a few questions and tips, using PTC's program pro desktop 8.0 i have drawn up a design for a drive bay resovior but have had a second idea and im going to design another 1 and will upload both shortly to see some of the comments i also want to overclock my cpu and gpu but just researching these possabilities at the moment
all together now just awaiting the gpu and cpu should be here by 3:15 looking for an msata ssd for smart response but they are so expensive :O
Read Bloody_Petes water cooling log, you find pretty much everything in there that you need to know and for any thig else just ask us lot.
