I want to replicate the water cooled Fractal Define Design R4 build that was in last weeks WAN show. I thought it was awesome. Does anyone know what parts he used for his radiator, reservoir, pump, and tubing?

No offence but maybe you could take inspiration from the build instead of replicatin it? Just my opinion.

I will probably be throwing a back mounted ssd in it and a maximus vi formula with an 4770k. Also what was his CPU block?

Yeah I probably will, and just use what he used as a base and build off that.

Hey bloke,

 

If it was mine you were looking at then in all honesty, go for it I don't mind at all. Though if it were anyone else you might want to ask them first.

 

As MrTheBeb has posted my parts list above feel free to go out and grab them but you could use variants and it would look the same. Eg, any 60mm 240mm Rad (such a a Alphacool UT60) and any thin 25-30 240mm Rad for the roof.

 

Pump can be any variation of a D5 with a mod kit and I went a Koolance 380 because it was the best performing CPU waterblock at the time.

 

The Liquid cooled Fractal is actually completely disassembled at the moment, and has been for a few weeks going through a refresh so when it comes back, it wont look much like it did on the show,

 

MOAR RADS

 

Good luck.
