attachicon.giflinus.PNG[ is this water cooling kit good? im running a i5 4670k oc at 1.3v

 

The DDC kit isn't bad I'd probably go for a tube res over a bay res if you have the room however or if you can fit it in the budget.

I really dislike the PMP-400 pump, its reliable but for a little extra you can get the Much better and adaptable PMP-450. The PMP-400 came with my Exos-2.5 Cooling System back in 2009;

It worked great for 3 years but then the seals started to go and the pump was no longer powerful enough for my needs. The reservoir had acrylic threads that leaked and stripped over time and were generally terrible. I guess at the time it fit my build but i'm a big fan for spending a little extra for quality hardware that's modular and future proof. I now run a PMP-450 and these things are by far the most used and super reliable pumps.

I run all Koolance hardware in my build and I love them.

I agree, I have a tube rez from Koolance and its the best decision I ever made. Very effective at removing air, easy to fill, looks BA and mounts with my PMP-450 for a clean stylish all-in-one build. You can even use it with the PMP-400 (as the picture shows) but I suggest spending the extra $10 for the PMP-450
