  • hey i just bought a btx mobo, do u know where to get a case and cpu cooler cheap?

  • I buy all my stuff from frozen cpu.

  • Hey like the video, if i were you i would take a piece of tape or some thing and cover that gap between the 120mm to 80mm converter just not getting the most air flow through the rad. :)

  • yeah this computer is long gone. I took it appart about a year ago.

  • I don't understand why you need a "BTX" waterblock. The E6700 is socket 775 so as long as you have CPU waterblock that is 775 compatible it will fit your motherboard. BTX refers to the orientation of the components in side, so ATX/BTX is irrelevant to the water cooling products.

  • It's not the block, but the brackets that hold the block. it is different from ATX.

  • Screw all the internal plumbing. I just put my tower in a small refrigerator and run at 45 degrees F. It was a far cheaper solution and there's even room for beer.

  • BTW, not all CPU coolers that are 775 comatable fit on a BTX mobo. Actually, you HAVE to have a BTX cooler for that, unless you have a drill and some screws handy. Maybe you DO have to have a specific waterblock for BTX, just like with the cpu cooler...

  • @Fretkillr I bet you did that... Refrigerators put off condensation = water. And water on computer components are a BIG no no. You'll fry everything.

    Nice Trolling.

  • Careful with that man, the condensation can bugger your pc

  • ...? how the hell can you have it going from the cpu to the radiator and to the gpu if the radiator only has 2 water holes? More like:

    Pump > CPU > GPU > Radiator > Hard Drive > Pump

    Get your facts right, this is one of the most known water cooling setup..
