Hi, i am new with the water cooling business, i need to buy a case, power suplly for my 2 x 9800 Gx2 and buy a water cooling. I just bought Zalman 9700 NT but it didnt work well for me. I have rosewill $20worth(free after rebate) fan&hs gives me same temp. So i decided to move to watercolling.
My current case is Raidmax scorpio 668w full tower (http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=144&products_id=902) But it gets dusty really easy and doesnt have a good air flow. I have $550 for watercooling unit+case+at least 1000w tier1 power suplly.
i have some choices below
Thermaltake Kandalf (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133024) comes built in water cooling around $270
Antec twelve hundred (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129043) it is $159shipped +ocz elitexstrame 1000w $189 after rebate
Xclio 1000 + Xclio diamondpower 1080w (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.146501) $420
Boreas MTEC (http://www.coolitsystems.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2&Itemid=5) it is just dream icant get this because this one is like $750 without psu
i may also buy this power supply Zalman ZM850 850w it is around $150
or this zalman gs 1000 case it is big and good, good cable managment but insuficient fans.
I need water cooling recomendation for antec or Xclio built.
cOOLIT eliminator thermoelectiric (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835227001) water cooler $160 how is this one?
sWIFTEC H20 $130
actually i want something big like i can add gpu water blocks
power supply
Antec signature series 850w (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371018)
or
Antec True power 1000w (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371012)
those have good discount with antec case+power combo
one more question. I have pretty big case. Would you just keep him? and spent money for water cooling&power supply.
also can i mode my case? to do better air flow
i am open minded to new recomendations.
