watercooling
« on: December 19, 2009, 10:22:26 PM »
Hello everyone. i hope this place can answer some burning questions I've had on watercooling my gaming system.

i want to watercool my system because it keeps overheating. i cant play any newer games (crysis, farcry2, GTA4, Grid, Boarderlands etc..) for more than an hour b4 i get warnings and/or the blue screen of death.

system specs:
Nivida 790i mobo
QX9650 core 2 quad 3ghz w/12MB cache
8GB 1600MHz RAM
3x BFG Nividia 280 SLI'ed
1.1K watt PSU
5 HDD's 4 in RAID 5
LG blue ray optical drive
7 >60CFM fans (including CPU fan)

i want to cool as much as i can but defiantly the 3 GPU's, the CPU, chipset, and maybe the memory. I've heard that electrolysis can happen with certion metals in the coolent. i don't want this to happen so what metal can the parts be made of? can i use a brass radiator with a copper block etc?

i have read countless DIY's and tutorials but i still don't know if you hook up everything in paralell or series. i defently don't want the video card heat to heat up the CPU if it's after the loop u know?
