Next you should swap out those blue fans for red, and then get white and red 12 inch cathodes, and if you can replace the side panels at all, switch the top above the CPU to acryllic

Hello sir, could you tell me why you've bought a 2133MHz as the ram bus of that cpu (i7-2600k) supports a maximum transport of 1333MHz? you can see it here at Memory Types ark.intel[DOT]com/products/522­14/ Also could you tell me what are your load temps with prime95 small ffts? and at what voltage are you using for the 4.7GHz? Thanks in advance.

@Phr33d0m The processor comes with a built-in memory controller for DDR3-1333. Anything over and above that will be achieved through overclocking. Basically what 1600+ modules are, are modules tested at higher frequencies (and possibly lower timings). The SPD is still 1333, but with the allowance for 1600+ (depending on the DIMMs in question) my RAM is however running @ its rated speed of 2133MHz, CPU voltage is at 1.36V and when i tested in prime it averaged around 60C, hope that helps

what do the coil things do? lol noob question

[g45uk2]

@xkyle567x they stop the tubing from kinking mate

[xkyle567x]

@g45uk2 ok thanks for the response. 1/2 ID tubing i'm going to guess? doing some research so when i get enough money i can make a nice PC. what ID do you prefer because i heard some like 1/2ID because more water flows through but some like 3/8th because there's more nozzle effect.. i don't know though so i'd like your opinion

[g45uk2]

@xkyle567x Tygon R3603 7/16" ID - 5/8" OD, google that and buy it, its good stuff mate, just make sure you buy the right tubing for your setup

[xkyle567x]

@g45uk2 thanks you've been a ton of help!

[g45uk2]

@xkyle567x your welcome mate

[g45uk2]

@necrocoprophilia what do you mean come on... the reason i bought a 1000w PSU it is because i have a lot of gear in there and for future proofing, also there is a point to water cooling when it comes to me because i like low temps, if its not for you thats fine, but i dont understand why you would click on a vid that has water cooling in the tittle if you didnt see the point in it...

@g45uk2 Would you recommend the monitor?

[g45uk2]

@JordanWells15 yes definately, its awesome, especially for gaming

[JordanWells15]

@g45uk2 Just saw your in the army in your picture (if that's you), regiment?

[g45uk2]

@JordanWells15 was in the RAMC mate 

[JordanWells15]

@g45uk2 Ah nice one :D I was in the middle of application for the paras but I got deferred at ADSC because of my pectus excavatum.. Thanks for the help anyway though, I've been looking around for a decent monitor for ages.

[g45uk2]

@JordanWells15 hard luck mate, and your welcome
