Saturday, January 20th 2007, 9:41am

Hi everyone! Just registered.

As the title says a newbee to watercooling, seeking help choosing the right components for a first time ever installment

My specs are:
Chase:             Thermaltake V2000 ( I know.. a lame chase)
HDD:                WD raptor 74GB
Mobo:              Sapphire AM2RD580
CPU:                AMD X2 FX-62
Graphics:          2 X Sapphire X1900(XTX) in crossfire

Looking forward to your guys (girls?) input

Best

Welcome to the AC-form!

First of all, I would suggest the
High End 240 Supply Kit, Coolpump Typ 700, 12 V
This set inclues the necessary components, but the cpu-cooler.

You can choose every cpu-cooler, you like as long as you take a mounting for your cpu.

For your hdds, you could take an aquadrive dual. This will cool 2 hdds and is much cheaper then 2 singel ones.

For your graficcards, you could take the aquagratix für X1950, X1900 und X1800 XTX/XT/XL/AIW Rev. 2 (two of those!)
or you take the Twinplex ATI. (Attention: The twinplex will realy just cool the GPU, not the RAM.)

Don't forget to select mounting of your choise.
(I prefer Plug and Cool.)

Additionaly it should be a good choice, to buy 3 or 4 angles, as well.

Katzenfreund thank you for your response...

will it be adequate with only one pump?
wont the water be "hot" (after having cooled the CPU and graphics) when reaching the NB and HDD?

The temperature difference should be very small because the water is flowing too fast to heat up that much.

Of caurse it will.
There are systems that are much bigger (like 5 Aquadrives + CPU, GPU, Voltages, Chipsetz,...) and they all run perfect with one pump.

You should know, that the silver version of the CuplexXT means only 1°C less then with the cuper one.
As angles you could use: Winkelverbinder plug&cool Metall
[63002]

Mountings you can buy angled or none angled.
The none angled are Anschluss plug&cool gerade G 1/8
[90002] - you would need 8 of them.
The northbridge cooler is the twinplex Rev. 1.2 Chipset ohne Anschlüsse or any other Cipset cooler with this mounting. (e.g. TwinplexXT chipset)
