Hello,

i am new to liquid cooling and such, but im learning . Please don't yell at me if i'm asking stupid questions or if it has been already answered somewhere else on forum, i did some searching but couldn't find what i was looking for.

First of all i am interested in buying http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=2425 - aquagratiX for HD 5970 (2x RV870) G1/4, nickel plated with Delrin terminals.

My questions are as follows :
- is it compatible with the HIS HD5970 version of the card ? how can i check if it is?
- do you ship internationally ? more exactly in Romania ? express delivery by DHL / UPS / other courrier supported ?
- are there any instructions included ? if no where can i find mounting instructions (i have any neccesary tool just didn't do this before)
- i assume mounting the waterblock implies voiding the warranty of the card from the supplier. From your typical experience / what you have heard before do you reckon that if i take the card + waterblock at the supplier and they mount it for me / i mount it under their sight the warranty can be kept ?
- i am also buying http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/Product.aspx?C=1309&ID=1418 case (sorry if i'm not allowed to post such links here). Is it a good choice to combine looks + practicality ? What else would you recommend otherwise ?
- is the waterblock for the GPU linked above compatible with the case and its LCS ? What other components do i need to buy from aquacomputer to make the whole solution ? (fittings / tubes / i don't know)

thank you very much for your time,

Bogdan

hello, thank you for the fast reply.

now my shopping list has grown to :

http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=2425 - GPU block

2x http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=2502 (which i understand i also need for the graphics card)
http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=1079 - CPU block

http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=2192 (do i also need this ? )


now i looked into the tubing from the case and it is reported as quote 3/8" endquote. i noticed the gpu block needs adapting to G1/4 and the cpu block to G1/8. Still it is unclear for me which type of fittings i need to get for each gpu / cpu. Mind helping please?

also what cooling liquid do you recommend ?

thanks again,

Bogdan

i found out that the tubes have inner diameter of 9.5 mm but the outer diameter is uncertain. will 4x http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=2322 do then ?

also does it matter for cooling performance what liquid i am using ? was thinking of something like http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=2512 to also glow.

same question goes for cooling paste, back in the days i used to glue cpu sinks there was only 1 type of paste. so is http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=1374 a good choice ?

thanks again

Hello,

i decided to go for a full solution from aquacomputer afterall so i came up with the following configuration:



please let me know if i'm missing anything - like connectors, cables, power cords, tools, etc for a full working installation.

also, apparently i cannot select DHL as a shipping method, as i don't see it anywhere, all i get is this :
