1278499 2012-06-01 10:21:00 if your spendign that much money you might as well go with a custom liquid cooling solution... Generally any regular heat sync and fan cooler will do as well as a all in one liquid coolign setup... Get some cooland some tubing, pump, reservior, coolign blocks and a radiator and you will have cooling unmatcable by any regular air solution or all in one solution. Slankydudl (16687)
1278500 2012-06-01 10:38:00 I don't trust water cooling, its a big step for me to even consider it and a sealed unit on the CPU is the most I am willing to do for now.
And the spend is less than half what I spent on the last build so meh.

1278501 2012-06-01 10:45:00 well atleast try it sometime... it seems dodgey but as logn as you get good fittigns and all it should be fine... iv water cooled before and never had a problem, and obviously you test the entire loop outside of the case nto conencted for leakes and stuff for like a day Slankydudl (16687)
1278502 2012-06-01 10:47:00 Maybe this (www.theregister.co.uk) :) fred_fish (15241)

1278504 2012-06-01 11:47:00 Lol just dont put your hardrive inside it plz. Slankydudl (16687)
1278505 2012-06-01 12:29:00 Would non-conductive oil damage a real hdd? not that it matters, hdd's are overrated. SSD's FTW icow (15313)
1278506 2012-06-01 13:05:00 It wouldnt damage it but it would make it not work... Is a mechanical, it spins and if you put it in oild then it will slow down and the arm will probably do something. And the light will have to go through oil rather than air, also the motor being put in oil... Yes putting a mechanical hdd in oil will wreck it. And ssd's are not that great yet. They are supe fast but they lack sooooooooooooooo much in storage. For the price of a 250gb ssd i can get a 2tb hdd. Atm they are too expensive for your aberage consumer that doesnt need speed.

1278507 2012-06-01 13:13:00 Actually for the price of a 250GB you can get 2x 2TB drives. DeSade (984)
