Hello All, I am curious if I should Water cool a graphics card on a Rig I am planning. (Specs if any one wants them http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3Jw3g

 

I'm also wondering if I do end up Water Cooling the GPU if I need to get more radiators. Thank you in advanced.

That'd be a pretty nice system to watercool. If you're going to, try to get a more watercooling friendly case like the Corsair 450D or 750D.

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Forget about the bad memories of the past, take the good ones along with you through the present, and look forwards to the good things that will come in the future.

 stick with the h100i and get a Kraken G10 + AIO for the GPU

I second that. Even a corsair H55 with the G10 will keep the 780ti way under 60C. Ofc,this option is if you funds are limited.If not, go with open watercooling loop hands down.

Minimum rads i recomment is 2x240 for full watercooling

You have two options: stick with the h100i and get a Kraken G10 + AIO for the GPU or go full custom loop.

Quick Question... What exactly is an "AIO"? Bit new to water cooling. And PC building in general.

All in ones. Its just a loud pump with a radiator and sealed tubing qater cooling setup. Usually comes with crap fans and usually arent upgradable minus a couple from swiftech and coolermaster.

Yes you should watercool it but if you decide to watercool your rig do a custom loop and not that AIO thing-a-ma-jig. 

 

Why isn't this in the watercooling section mister.... :huh: LTT has rules and every time one of you breaks them it makes me want to.... :unsure: <------ is the best emotion i could have used because there isn't a crying emotion. :P
