Why would you watercool RAM other than for the looks :) ?

 

But yeah that setup will do as long as you are not planning on OCing a lot. And make sure to buy good static pressure fans like e-Loop B12-4.

Well yeah go for it, cause it looks really sexy :). I am too lazy to do that haha :). But show us please some pictures when you are done. You don´t see too many water cooled RAM.

Yup it's enough. Also one does not simply watercool RAM without watercooling their motherboard.

The only waterblock for my blue itx mobo has a cpu block integrated and its a pretty sucky cpu block.

Why? That's plenty of radiator for as much ocing as he wants. I have my 4790K @ 4.8GHz and oc'd 290 on the same rad space.

 

CPU = 65c

GPU = 45c

 

both under 100% load.

Well that´s too much in temp for me in watercooling I just put my SLI loop together and I´ve got with OC after 2 hours of Unigine Valley 37° Celsius with dual GPU. And my other loop for my CPU has at the max 48° Celsius.

 

The more radiator space you´ve got the lower the fans will run. It will be much more quiet and you will have more reserves.

 

Not saying that 45° Celsius for a GPU is bad but I like to keep things on the lower side.
