Custom, H100 or stock?

[maxime_vhw]

Simple question,

im going to buy a new pc.

And i was wondering should i just get an H100(i) or should i go with the stock cooler until i have some more money for a custom loop?

I was going to do watercooling+tons off fans.

I really want an awesomely cooled pc :)

If you are going to custom water cool anyway, I suggest staying with the stock untill you can afford custom, that is what I am going to do, as I don't want to waste serious money on a good cooler just to replace it.

If you truly want an awesomely cooled pc then you should same some money for a custom loop :)

If you can wait until you have a full loop, before overclocking, use stock, otherwise get H100(i) or you could wait for the Swiftech H220 AIO, then add to it if you want.

It depends on whether or not you want to water cool any other components of your PC. If you wanted to also water cool your graphics card, it would be a better idea to wait until you have enough money for a custom water cooling loop. If you just plan on cooling your CPU, a H100i should be fine. Good luck!

i want everything to be cooled in a waterloop, i hope to get loads of money and buy 900D.

I think that will be my case for a long time if i buy it....

Nice :) i thought it costed more

[Whaler_99]

What exactly are the components you are going to be cooling? And, the H220 in no way rules out a triple rad - it's simply a starting point. When ready to expand, nothing to stop you from moving the dual to the front, bottom, or where ever and adding in a triple rad. If you are going to be cooling a CPU and say dual GPU, you will most likely need two rads anyways... So this allows you to start with water cooled, and add to it as money allows...

The build will be: corsair ax1200i, rog maximus V formula, I7 3770K, 16Gb ram(2x8Gb), samsung 840 pro, dont know wath HDD to choose..., Gtx 680 or gtx690, thats all i think... :)

The H100 will be very convenient to mount and will give you good results, but for max.OC (I assume you're going to overclock) you're better off with a custom loop. Just expect it to cost more and that you'll have to put in more work. But there is also another upside to going custom: the parts are going to last longer - you can always reuse the radiator and the reservoar etc. :)

I never thought about that :o the reuse i mean :)

Sounds good, i would only need to buy new gpu block... most cpu blocks fit on everything from amd and intel....
