Shopping help for watercooling.

[Waldemar]

Hello

I'm wondering if you guys could help me put together a custom loop with parts from this site http://www.aquatuning.us/. The reason I want it from this site is that they also have a norwegian retailer. At the moment I only need to cool a cpu, but I'm looking for a loop where I can expand later to cool a GPU as well. It can be with soft tubing. I have not done a loop in 10 years or so.tongue emoticon

The case it is gonna be fitted in is a Fractal Design R5.

I hope this is not much of a hassle.

Cheers in advance.

Water cooling compatibility Define R5

• Front – 360, 280, 240, 140 and 120 mm radiators of all thicknesses (requires removal of drive bays)
• Top – 420, 360, 280, 240, 140 and 120 mm radiators. (A thickness limitation of 55mm for both radiator + fan applies on 420, 280 and 140 mm radiators) (420 and 360 mm radiators require removal of the ODD bay)
• Bottom – 120 or 240 mm radiator (Use of radiators in the bottom position limits the PSU length to 165 mm)
• Rear – 120 or 140 mm radiator

 

There is what can fit in the case.

Now we just need to know which CPU we are making the setup for.

Thanks for the reply

It's an i5 4690k,

I'm thinking about a rad that I can fit in the top of the of case.

And if it could be trough Komplett that would be awesome.

The front of the Define R5 could fit a 360, so maybe a Alphacool NexXxoS Monsta 360 or other thick radiatiors with push/pull.

As for the top, probably a 240 would be better and despite the offset fan mounts, getting an extra-thick radiator would block the memory and would make it harder for upgrades. Also, I've heard that 280 radiators might block cable routing on top of the mobo, so a slim 240 on push on top.
