[bce018]

@kobasica You should see his wife, she's hot.

[kobasica]

i think this guy is gay

[AlienPrime173]

obviously Ek is the best! how didn't he mention it?

[Aleandro82]

Lol u mad ? Not even mentioned EK .....

[rudrathe1]

i like this person.

all his videos i saw helped me buying my liquid cooling kit.

[Flightmode747]

hey man im new to water cooling and im upgrading my system and would like to know what are the parts need for the water cooling kits and also im buying the amd phenom 2 x6 1090t is there any water blocks for amd??? so far i have only seen for every other board execpt am3 thank you

[turbotonic27]

what do you recomend a watercooling pc ? or a normal ? just cpu coolers hdd cooler etc?

[Youareatroller]

its pronounced COURSE HAIR

[TheFanofFPS]

You are good.

[851995STARGATE]

[pushpoppushpop]

he sounds like a robot, try to just loosen up bro

[ilxxage]

PC reviews would be shit without u man..

i love your reviews

[SidneyXda]

How the hell do make/build one of them awesome Colling systems!?! i have no idea..since im not a gamer but i wish i could just buy a ready made one, maxed with fat tubes! lol ..id like red looking pipes. Id like to own one, play the odd game and look at it all day. then maybe polish those fat juicy ATI cards. Anyone know where i can buy ready made build ones from a good reputable company?

[TheMadOrc]

I want water cooling but it costs so much.

[menz40]

coolit eco!!!!

[VxGhostz]

if i a HAF 932, which has 3 fans already in it. will i have to have a certain mobo/psu to run them?

[XarXes3675]

@VxGhostz No, any standard ATX PSU and Motherboard will power those fans.

[xxxMrGeforcedxx9]

Ek!

Ek... and everything else goes out of the way

[rebeccasam666]

have u never heard of ek? they have the best blocks on the market! ek rules! coolance sucks!

[DarkEnergy79]

Thank you for your tips. After this video, I researched on swiftech and I went with Swiftech H20-220 Apex Ultima Extreme Duty. :) $229 right now on newegg. Thanks again!

[mhaneline]

That kit is beast. The pump is amazing, and the water block is exceptional.

[zionstepper]

I've never water cooled befor but i'm bringing in my brother. im going for the corsair case hence the need to water cool what would be a good ki to go for. i'd like to keep the cost down as i just spent 200 on the case :(

[ricardop56]

Is external water cooling better than internal?

[TomsBigBox]

Technically, yes, but then it depends on your setup.

[shuffle953]

yep because you have more room in your case

[rebeccasam666]

no difference

[mrgamer81]

you rock,

[EdvinSoderman]

NEver Say this guy are gay again! his the best video-rewiew-guy I ever seen! and I love his reviews!

[TheMadOrc]

Yeah hes cool before I started watching his videos I did not even consider building my own comp.

[aschris87]

no hes got kids and a wife...

[drey27]

how much overclock can you get more with water cooling if let says my friend could only get his corei7 920 with gigabyte extreme board and thermalright ultra 120, to stable clock at 3.8 Ghz?

[ryanbycraft]

i have watercooled my i7 920 is iv'e got 4.2Ghz stable.

[AdamDiddy]

Nice man ! I'm scared to go beyond 4.0

[Panditha666]

what is your setup?

[ryanbycraft]

Antec 1200

Core i7 920 @ 4.2Ghz

EVGA Sli X58

(2) EVGA GTX 285's Super Super Clocked in Sli

6GB Corsair Dominator 1666Mhz @ 1886Mhz

(2) Intel X25-M 64GB SSD's in RAID 0

(2) 1TB WD Caviar Black in RAID 1

Corsair HX1000 PSU

Full Swiftech Watercooling System, cooling NB,SB and CPU

Hope this was what you were after

[pyxybeka]

my Specs: update Case: Antec 1200 Motherboard: ASUS rampage extreme GPU: Two ZOTAC GeForce GTX 295 - 1,8 GB DDR3 (quad SLI) CPU: INTEL Core 2 Quad Q9650 - OC too 4 Ghz RAM: CORSAIR Triple Channel 8 GB DDR3 2x SEAGATE Barracuda 1,5 Tb- 7200 PSU: Antec TruePower Quattro 1000 W CPU cooler: coller master v8 Mouse: RAZER Mamba Mouse pad: Razer destructor Keyboard: Razer Lycosa Mirror Headphones: Razer Megalodon Monitor: LG Tv LCD 47' inch full HD Windows 7 64-bit

[Denusch]

sux

[pyxybeka]

yes, yours is better... HAHA

[Denusch]

geforce 380's x2 ;)

prototype testing but there great! lol

[yxa86]

If I were to built my system right now I'll put CoolIT Domino ALC for the CPU alone, and a either Koolance or Thermaltake 780e for a single GTX290 H20. I'll try to fit them in Xazer, Cosmos S or Antec 1200.

[oXoAeternooXo]

never take a thermaltake. their pumps tend to leak after 3-4 months. the Antec 1200 doesn't provide enough room for most water cooling systems.

[ronytroche]

It would be a good idea to update this answers, because since this video was posted a lot of new parts had been released

[G0DLESSENDEAVOR]

I'm guessing 1/2inch tubing will be better with a 1200litre per hour pump or something like that. I also speculate the smaller tubings with a bigger pump will speed up the circulation. I'll stick with 3/8 on my first pc.

[sk8erbballkid]

you've done just about everything

[sharifsta]

thks for the help i hate havein to research stuff like taken my computer apart the goood thing now adays every thing u need to know is on you tube i may even think of puting use full tips like this on you tube

[STorpedo]

lol, doesn't matter what tube thickness you use, the pump still pushes the same amount of water, it just does it faster in a 3/8s. Thermofluids 101.

[sora778]

K so which would cool better? I ask cause Im still a bit of a noob with water cooling and currently have 3/8s on my system.

[STorpedo]

The best "supposedley" would be the thinnest, so 3/8s are nice and small, but it would be a diff. of 1 degree TOPS, and that can be attributed to different things.

[jfrydom]

half inch for the cpu and then u can split that in half for the rest

[MugenRac1ng]

I've bought a XSPC watercooling kit for 100 euros and it's pretty good for a CPU kit.

Only 21 Celsius @ idle with a overclock from 1.6 to 2.8 GHz

[Bakkumterritory]

you have the best vids dude go on celine dion!

[karaokesteve]

dude your fuckin awesome, i love your vids

[SPLITZRZR]

thanks

[qulitz21]

hi.i have a problem in my cpu fan error

because i use water cooling systen

so when i open my computer always the cpu fan error.how can i fix ..help plssss..waaaa

[g45uk2]

to qulitz21

When your turn on your PC, go into bios, then goto: Power/Hardware Monitor, in there you shuld see CPU Fan speed warning, it will most likely be set to 800rpm, hit enter on this and select disable, then exit bios saving the changes and this will solve your problem. bear in mind i use an asus mobo, so the directions i gave are for that model but will be fairly similar on another board

[qulitz21]

thank you very much sir...

[g45uk2]

no probs

[Lvaneede]

I have the Thermaltake Bigwater 760i cooling kit and the Gigabyte Blue Eye graphics water block. I love them, especially how all the pump, radiator, fan and water reservoir all go into two 5 1/4" drive bays.

[Kyl3walt3r5]

skip water cooling and get phase change cooling

[TheBlitz1]

i agree thermo-electrics ftw

[goodguys]

Yeah, but phase change is very expensive and requires much case modification. Other than that, I'd go a cheaper route and go with a peltier kit.

[TheBlitz1]

Incorrect, someone who can afford a phase change unit like the "Vapochill Lightspeed" or "Mach 2 GT"(approx. $800-850) will be able to afford a full tower case($350 tops), and all you have to do is drill a hole in the bottom of the case (Some Lian-Li cases come pre drilled). DO NOT buy a peltier unit, without proper airflow condensation will build up in your system quickly shorting it. DO NOT skimp on high performance systems! If you cannot afford a full system, don't invest in Thermo-Electrics.

[godil496]

Isn't the H20 120 and the compact the same thing? do u mean micro? lol

[3DGAMEMAN]

Swiftech has a few:

- H20-120 Compact

- H20-220 Compact

- H20-220 Apex™ Ultra

- H20-220 Apex™ Ultra+

[pippintoon]

@3DGAMEMAN Do you mean Ultima and not Ultra?

[sushiboy805]

hey i was wondering if your going to make a 64bit system and u need a sound card

if your mother board already has like a intergrated sound system do u still neeed to get one

[denyag]

depends if u want better quality or ur sound system is for example 5.1 but your motherboards onboard only supports 2.1

[frost1337]

Has some really good...blocks.heh

[TheKoreanX]

whats up with the ads? xD anyway nice review. i personally like thermaltake.

[frost1337]

That would be youtube "experimenting" with ads,I.E. being gay.

[masterchiefx2]

IDIOT wtf EK? is one of the best didnt even get mentioned

[RadeonXtremeVX2]

i have a question concerning health and safety

im going to be buying a 24" monitor and i want to know how many metres should my eyes be away from the screen. will 1 metre be enough. i don't wanna kill my eyes.

[PRODVDi]

48"away should be fine

[kapowwebuyer]

sounds nice!!

[CreatureGam3r]

northq siberian tiger

[kevaughanshiu]

Water cooling D:

too fancy for me. but i can great benefit from it!

[bammass]

Koolance ftmfw

[greekpanther1]

hey! thats wat i say

[slipslipknot555]

koolance works pretty well for me ;)

[SimonLANO]

When i get my Cooler Master Cosmos S case.. i need watercooling.. could som1 help me get watercooling for my CPU? Intel Q6660? i need a good set.

[FremontMetalHead]

Get the Dtek Fuzion v2. It's designed specifically for quad-core processors.

[Foxontherun2]

Watercooling a cpu is cool . But when people water cool there videocards I think thats gay. Just buy a faster videocard ya know?

[CsS1337h4x0r]

When its only going to make a very negliable difference, its not worth it. Plus your computer looks cooler and will run a lot cooler. I certainly don't feel so happy with my 9800 GX2 running at 94C idle and oh god who knows what its at load.

[Foxontherun2]

Eh , its like those raptor hdd's , no real point other then to say "I have a raptor hdd , and water cooled video cards , and gold plated toilet paper"

[albo1000]

what if they watercool the latest video card out

[FremontMetalHead]

Are you fucking stupid or something? Water cooling does not increase the performance of the card... it just makes it run more efficiently and A LOT cooler. And the faster and more powerful the card gets, the higher the temperature is, fuckwit. Water cooling isn't just to show off, it's also the most efficient way to ensure your shit doesn't fry/overheat.

Go learn something, pl0x.

[CsS1337h4x0r]

Actually I was saying to buying a whole new videocard instead of watercooling

[Foxontherun2]

FremontMetalHead , I'm sure you one of those guys that thinks his giant chrome rims makes his explorer go faster also.

[FremontMetalHead]

If I was, how would this be relevant to my point, or to your stupid comment? You think water cooling is compensation for wanting to feel important or something? LOL.

Go ahead and stick to your standard cooling and idiotic logic; I'll go ahead and water cool my GX2 once I get enough money to do so (Idle - 60C. Load - over 80C. FUCK that).

[Foxontherun2]

yes , once you save up for that water cooling you could then save up and move out of your moms house. Or why do that when you could spend it on a large over sized t-shirt , some bling bling , and some kfc.

[FremontMetalHead]

I'm not even black, you racist asshole. None of those things interest me. I'm not even sure I realize what you're trying to get at here... If I'm going to spend a shitload of money on a great graphics card and CPU, I might as well go the whole way and spend a few hundred more on water cooling. That way I can ENJOY my system headache-free.

As for your irrelevant comments regarding whatever the hell you're on about, fuck off.

[CsS1337h4x0r]

Watercooling is fucking expensive, and is kinda of a hassle in the long end.

But its completely worth it, but hey. Your computer is going to look really ugly with air cooling and no one is really going to give a shit.

[DejaSOY]

Yep. The only reason I'll get watercooling, not the kit, would be to prolong the life of my hardware & to prevent it from frying/ overheating.

of course I want to overclock my cpu, fsb & ddr2 ram which may require increasing gpu frequency to match mobo. so having some kind of liquid cooling would help prevent frying/ overheating.

[ACID1ER]

great ..im going with the a swiftech and koolance combo kit..

[CsS1337h4x0r]

please please please dont, you will get corrsion within time.

the radiators that swiftech uses are made of aluminum...

the anti corrsoive stuff they use doesnt help either, thier newer waterblocks are alright atm

[CsS1337h4x0r]

edit: I ment koolance..

[AMDATI123]

Koolance is definately the best.

[CsS1337h4x0r]

Koolance is definately the worst...

[Whitepeoplerulez]

You must be smoking something, Koolance is "ONE OF" the best Liquid cooling kit producers for Cpu and Gpu's.

[CsS1337h4x0r]

Note to all people!

If you go into watercooling, MAKE SURE YOU DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME.

What I would reccommend is.

Swiftech Triple Rad

D-Tek Fuzion V2 CPU

Laing D5 Vario Pump

1/2" Tygon Tubing

3x Medium Yate Loon Fans

Swiftech Micro Res.

Coolant: either Feser UV, Primochill, distilled water. Just stay away from fluid xp

[rh3z]

How much of a difference does a triple rad make compared to a double rad with temps?

[CsS1337h4x0r]

it really depends on what you are running in the loop.

if its just the cpu its really hardly a difference, but if you are running multiple videocards and a cpu, you're gonna need it.

[RickArter]

Great video.

[laidt0rest]

i would do water cooling but im to poor...i need a job xD

[worshipme213]

I'd build my own.

[Oakkiller77]

lol, you better make it super water tight

[worshipme213]

I mean, I won't buy a kit, I'll buy the individual components.

[BowlinLefty]

I think he means he buys his parts separately as apposed to buying a kit.

[Oakkiller77]

k, that makes more sense

[AussieTemplar]

WCing kits aren't as efficient as custom h20.

A mixture of XSPC radiators and D-Tek blocks make a perfect system.

[67chevelle]

nice

[CsS1337h4x0r]

Please why did you list Koolance, thermaltake, gigabyte, corsair, coolit?

They are the worst you can possibly get.

[3DGAMEMAN]

Because it gives people a few other options ;)

[CsS1337h4x0r]

lol rodney, you are destorying peoples pcs.

[Rowdyeh]

That's not fair, people make their own choices!

[shubhamranjan]

tremaltake why i bought that it destroyed my hardrive and the pump leaked

then i have koolance now and its all cool

[AussieTemplar]

The Corsair and Gigabyte kits are better than thermaltake by far.
