Last preparation

Go to solution Solved by TheNinjaNextDor,

First of all thanks for the quick answer ...Also the cpu block looks really good...As for tubing primochill has really quality like the fittings,,,How about this reservoir from Ek its the EK X3 250

Resevoir....Could you also suggest me a pump?

Its pretty great, i drilled holes for mounting it in the center of my case.

Pump: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/21014/ex-pmp-245/EK_D5_X-Top_Pump_Top_w_D5_Vario_Pump_-_Black_Acetal_EK-D5_Vario_X-TOP_incl_pump.html

I love that pump, quiet and variable speeds. The top is preinstalled and is what allows you to use fittings on it instead of using the barbs on the pump a a twist tie. Though it is optional.

Fans:

NB Eloops

Gentle Typhoons

NF-F12s

And if you have 6 fans (3 top 2 front 1 back) get splitters instead of a hub and connect them to your mobo headers.

Hi as some last preparations i would like to hear a quality 360rad from your personal experiences and a good reservoir/pump combo to fit in a 5'25 inch base in my 750D ...And a fiting to my i7 4770K and a waterblock for a evga 780ti more specifically this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GFZMI3G/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=1RQMKTV1E6YCZD4419RQ&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1688200382&pf_rd_i=507846

So insightful...

@OP I got most of my water cooling stuff from EK, their rads and cpu block have worked great for me.

Alphacool XT45 360 for the top and a UT60 240 or Monsta for the front.

Look into a Komodo 780 block.

XSPC makes great bay res thingys. I would recommend a tube res and D5 pump if possible. Drill 2 holes and it looks great. If you cant do Alphacool go for an EK rad.

Yeah. I have a 750D with a loop, look at my post and I can help with showing you holes etc if you want to drill for the res.

Its a bad picture but im not home to take one. Thats an EK 250mm res. With two holes drill into the case using the provided mounting points. The front rad is an EK XTX 240 and top an XT45 360

I don't have a 750D but most 360 radiators are enough to cool a CPU and a GPU and as far as 5.15 bay reservoirs go, any one with a D5 pump is what you want. However if is had a 750D i would use a stand alone pump and reservoir top and remove my 5.25 bays.

hm lets say from 300 to 600 euro

Sure and :o seeing your list would you like me to put it together too....sheech...some people :rolleyes: .... :D

 

One PC water cooling setup coming right up.....

 

 

Radiators.....More surface area is always better......$154

1) 2 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16825/ex-rad-426/Alphacool_NexXxoS_UT60_Full_Copper_Dual_140mm_Radiator.html?tl=g30c95s930 one for the top one for the front.

2) 1 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16828/ex-rad-429/Alphacool_NexXxoS_XT45_Full_Copper_Single_140mm_Radiator.html?tl=g30c95s929 for the back

 

Waterblocks.......I don't really like alphacool blocks or fittings but it is what you want.

CPU.....$59.99 1 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16395/ex-blc-1153/Alphacool_NexXxos_XP_Light_CPU_Liquid_Cooling_Block_-_Acetal_Edition_-_Intel_AMD_12153.html?tl=g30c85s139#blank

GPU.....$87.99 1 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/22285/ex-blc-1591/Alphacool_NexXxoS_NVXP_Nvidia_GTX780_Titan_-_Polished_Stainless_Steel_-_Clear_11083.html?tl=g30c311s1996#blank ( this is listed for the 780 and NOT the 780ti but you can however contact alphacool to find out what blocks fit your specified GPU. I know heatkiller has one for referance 780ti and so does EKWB but your specific GPU, 03G-P4-2883-KR, is not listed on their site but you can also check with them.

 

Res/Pump Combo......$159.99

1 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/23117/ex-pmp-296/Alphacool_Lighttower_All-in-One_Reservoir_Pump_Combo_w_Alphacool_VPP_OT12_Pump_-_Black.html?tl=g30c97s152#blank 

 

Compression fittings....$79.90

10 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/20796/ex-tub-1948/Alphacool_Compression_Fitting_-_G_14_Thread_12_ID_x_34_OD_1913mm_-_Deep_Black.html?tl=g30c409s1609

 

Tubing.....$14.99 + Shipping

1 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/22857/ex-tub-2755/Alphacool_AlphaTube_HF_Tubing_38ID_x_12_OD_-_3_Meter_Retail_Pack_-_Clear_UV_Blue_Transparent.html?tl=g30c99s171

 

Total = $556.86

NB....This is just one such configuration that can be had and better could be done if you mix and match your parts.

 

I noticed you said nothing about fans or fan splitters or a fan hub/controller, You will need either two fan splitters or one fan hub/controller plus your fans. I would also advise that you install one or two monsoon silver bullets

i ll buy a fan controller and some scythe fans ..It doesnt need to be from one specidic brand i need good quality for each individual part i just said alphacool cause i had friends that had good experiences with this company ...IF you guys have good experience with some other companies like ek xspc etc i dont have any problem with them..If its possible to have the best individual part for this price points then its totally fine ,

Oh then If you look at my sig thats what I have in it. Different fittings and regular tubing would be much better. I can list them here and I have a link to a really nice looking cpu block. Everything was bought on frozen cpu for about $750-800 so that is within the range.

Heres the block if you like this one

https://www.dazmode.com/store/product/dazmode_special_edition_cpu_block/

Im on my phone so a cart would hard sorry. For tubing go with primochill advanced LRT and fittings go with bitspower. The 800 i think includes the case and fans. If it helps, alphacool ships from germany if you want to order directly from them. If you dont like anything there (blocks res etc) i can try and tell you something else. :)

Then this is what i would get if i was putting parts in a 750D with your budget.....

 

Radiators......$180.97

Top.....http://www.frozencpu.com/products/15042/ex-rad-351/Koolance_Triple_120mm_Copper_High_Flow_Radiator_-_11_FPI_-_Black_HX-360HL_No_Nozzles_.html?tl=g30c95s161

Back.....http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16828/ex-rad-429/Alphacool_NexXxoS_XT45_Full_Copper_Single_140mm_Radiator.html?tl=g30c95s929

 

CPU block....$62.99 & $72.99 respectively 

1) http://www.frozencpu.com/products/14186/ex-blc-971/XSPC_RayStorm_High_Performance_Acetal_CPU_Liquid_Cooling_Block_-_Intel_Sockets_LGA_115x_1366_2011.html?tl=g30c85s139

OR

2) http://www.frozencpu.com/products/19629/ex-blc-1443/EK_Supremacy_Universal_CPU_Liquid_Cooling_Block_-_Clean_Acetal_EK-Supremacy_Clean_CSQ_-_Acetal.html?tl=g30c85s139

 

Pump/Res combo......These have great pumps and the reservoir is a glass and not acrylic which stains with colored coolant. $149.99 & $159.99 respectively. 

1) http://www.frozencpu.com/products/21480/ex-pmp-263/XSPC_Photon_170_Tube_Glass_Cylinder_Reservoir_Pump_Combo_D5_Vario.html?tl=g30c107s152

OR

2) http://www.frozencpu.com/products/21479/ex-pmp-264/XSPC_Photon_270_Tube_Glass_Cylinder_Reservoir_Pump_Combo_D5_Vario.html?tl=g30c107s152

 

Compression Fitting....$71.98

2 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16651/ex-tub-1330/Monsoon_Free_Center_Compression_Fitting_-_38ID_x_12OD_-_Modders_6_Pack_Black_Chrome_FCC-3812-6P-BC.html?tl=g30c569s1761#blank

 

Tubbing...... per ft $13.50

6 x http://www.frozencpu.com/products/2290/ex-tub-29/Tygon_E-3603_38_ID_12_OD_-_Laboratory_Tubing.html?tl=g30c99s171

 

Total with the Photon 170 and XSPC Raystorm = $479.43......Total with the Photon 270 and the EK Supremacy = $499.43.

 

With either setup you would have enough left over from your budget for shipping, fans, fan controller of your choice and remember you would need to contact different water block makers to find out if they make a water block for your specified GPU. Personally i would pick my GPU water block first then my GPU to ensure compatibility.  

 

My fan choices are.....

3 x http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006DKEQV0/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=419CPRZ90JL7&coliid=I109DLEDNYFQOX

&

3 x http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006CSKM20/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=419CPRZ90JL7&coliid=I1T160NFCDTNPN

 

Fan hub....http://www.frozencpu.com/products/23517/ele-1301/4-Pin_PWM_Power_Distribution_PCB_8x_Way_Block_MMT-PCB-4P-44P.html?tl=g47c121s424

 

Hope you get a build you could be happy with.

Its pretty great, i drilled holes for mounting it in the center of my case.

Pump: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/21014/ex-pmp-245/EK_D5_X-Top_Pump_Top_w_D5_Vario_Pump_-_Black_Acetal_EK-D5_Vario_X-TOP_incl_pump.html

I love that pump, quiet and variable speeds. The top is preinstalled and is what allows you to use fittings on it instead of using the barbs on the pump a a twist tie. Though it is optional.

Fans:

NB Eloops

Gentle Typhoons

NF-F12s

And if you have 6 fans (3 top 2 front 1 back) get splitters instead of a hub and connect them to your mobo headers.
