wooo, water!

Well, maybe, i'm considering putting together a water cooling system for my pc, because i've got a totally cack case for airflow, and with a thermoengine +7k fan + the white crap that came with my antec silvermountain, it's still @ 43 degrees, and that's what it's usually at, which annoys me as I want waaaaaaaay less than that so i can oc


so, here's a pic of my case, there's not a lot of room down at the bottom but it's a full tower so I got about 5.5" by 15" at the top to fill with crap, but heat rises so I dunno if it's a good idea

anyway, what do you think is the best + cheapest kit, for just my processor at the moment, when I can afford to replace my gf3 i'll mod it, same with all bits really, soon as I can afford to replace, I screw about

anyway, here's the pic, not bad considering I took it on a webcam go plus, under a flourescant light

I dunno about water, but I know about about cases... You really should add an outtake fan at the rear to get some airflow going. Getting fresh air in doesn't help if the hot air can't get out.

To create good airflow you should also round your cables, they look a bit messy. You don't have to cut them on anything, you can just bend them and wrap them in with some tape or something.

I'd love to put a fan on the outtake, but unfortunately, tis a 40mm fitting and I cannot find any 40mm fans with a 3 or 4 pin connector, if you have one or can get one, and feel like doing me a favour, please tell me!

1. There isnt physically 80mm of space on a flat surface
2. I havent got a dremel

my next case, Antec SX1040B or bigger, will be my ULTIMATE modding case, home made baybusses, lcd screen, window, millions of fans, internal lights, watercooling / vapocooling

anything I think is cool really

They seem to be coming from the mother board and go out the PCI connection space at the back of his box. *see picture*
