A little advice on water cooling?

Jux_Zeil · 05-December-07, 06:03 PM

Sorry to bother you with such a noob thread but this is my first water cooled pc build. Even if in the future i want to add GPU block, will this work?

Thanx for any help.

The ideal cooling loop would be Reservoir -> Pump -> Rad -> CPU -> GPU -> HDD -> Res

This ensures the following:
- The pump is never starved for water
- The CPU gets the water at it's coolest point

Sorry, should have made it clearer. I have 2 motorcycle rads thati'm using, but no Res.
I know it's not the ideal set up but i just want to make the best loop with what i've got.

That's fine, just have the tee fitting you use to fill the system right before the pump, leave everything else the same.
