  1. How do you like your ASUS VG248QE monitor? I was thinking about ordering a few if they're worth it.
  2. Hey guys! As this is my first time making a custom loop, I would like some advice. I haven't bought any of the items yet because I am still planning it out. If you have any personal experience with any of these parts, please tell me your opinions! Also, I already own the case and motherboard. Case: NZXT Phantom 820 Motherboard: ASUS Maximus V Formula Pump: Swiftech MCP35X Res: Bitspower Z-Multi 250* Rad: Alphacool NexXxoS UT60 3x120mm Fans: Corsair SP120 Quiet Edition CPU Block: Koolance CPU-380 (Intel) Fittings: I plan to use all Bitspower fittings, 3/8 ID + 1/2 OD Tubing: Open to suggestion! Coolant: EK Ekoolant - Blood Red And on to my questions. Regarding the reservoir, I have read mixed reviews on it. Due to that, I am open to suggestions for a res too. Also, I have a single MSi GTX 680 Lightning. Would it be worth adding that to the loop? If so, would any GTX 680 waterblock fit it, or would I be stuck with EK's specially made waterblock for it?
  3. Hey guys! I'm wanting to build a rig for gaming/editing. I was wondering if you guys could help me out by giving me some advice! My budget is ~$3k. The components that I plan to get: Case: NZXT Phantom 820 CPU: i7-3770k CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken x60 or the brand new Corsair h110, depending on reviews Mobo: ASUS Maximus V Formula RAM: 16GB Corsair Dominator Platinum @ 1866MHz GPU: MSi GTX680 Lightning PSU: Corsair AX860i I already have two 512gb Samsung 840 Pro SSD's and a 1TB Seagate Barracuda to use. I also plan to OC the CPU to ~4.8GHz, not sure about GPU yet. So yeah, could you guys please rate/ give me advice? EDIT: Peripherals: Keyboard/Mouse - Corsair K95 for both Monitor(s) - ASUS 23" LCD Also, would a single GTX680 be able to support two monitors and have decent graphics while playing games at the same time?
