What about the new all-in-one wc setups?

KayinStorm · 11-May-03, 08:38 PM

Have you seen the ones that they have all in the heatsink? I want the advantages of watercooling, but none of the money or the time, being a college student with one and hopefully two jobs. Even with two jobs, i move on and off campus a lot an don't think that I could trust one moving a lot. Not with my friends at least...

Of course, i could get bold and do a direct die setup like ZENZZO, but that would keep me from modding my girlfriend's computer-that'll take at LEAST a week, just on the window...

I've heard you can do better with just air cooling.

Are you talking about the heatpipe setups? Or the ones that fit in a 5.25 bay? I haven't seen one that fits all in the HS. where did you see it?

As Slider mentioned, you would do better with a SK7 or better and a high quality fan than a cheap-assed water setup.

If you want high end water performance, be prepared to pay the high end bucks for it. There are very few corners you can cut.

If you mean the Gyrox CPU cooler, it sucks. This is what you are thinking of, right?

yep ben, that's it. That's the deal right there. But, a good hsf, that's hard to find-especially with me wanting to break 3000 performance...

I didnt research this, but couldnt you usea thermalright slk 800 or 900 and a delta stealth fan. Obviously you want quiet but good cooling, and a TR heatsink is well known for overclocking performance. Even though I dont have it, I reccomend it.
