Watercooled 600t

tezza192 · February 17, 2013

Just finished my first watercooled PC, went with the corsair 600t.

With regards the the watercooling blocks I went with the EK FC blocks, I wasn't sure about them like most people but when you get to feel them they are quality parts, plus I think they look good with the full cover backplates. Anyway here is my spec,

I7 3770K @ 4.5 ghz

GTX 680 SLI

Asus Z77 Deluxe MB

16gb vengeance RAM

Corsair 600t White

XFX 850 pro PSU

2 x Corsair GS 120 gb in RAID 0

2 x 3gb Seagate Barracuda

Litewon Blu Ray

Corsair quiet edition fans for the roof and rear.

For the watercooling

Alphacool 240 rad

Phobya Xtreme 200

EK compression fittings

1/2" hose

XSPC pump/bay combo

Ran some benches including Prime for 12 hours and a looped 3dmark 11 for GPU / CPU stressing for an hour and max temps were CPU 53C / GPU 51C.

If you are looking at a similar build I would say that the 600t is not the greatest case for watercooling case, you are quite limited in the rads you can use, but you can still get some good results if you try. If you are wondering where the SSDs are I put a pair of them in a Silverstone drive bay converter which can house a 3.5" or a couple of 2.5" SSDs.

appreciate any feedback you can give. Thanks - TC
