Qx6700 and a Thermochill Pa120.2

[lilflippy]

What is the highest overclock i would be able to achieve With this radiator in a push and pull fan configuration silenx 120mm 90cfm cpu loop only?

Also i have a swiftech mirco resevoiur how hi do i have to fill it up to?

How long do i have to bleed the system with the resevouir cap off?

1. silenX fans suck. Get yate loons or the silverstones

2. your cpu overclock depends on your CPU. In short, your watercooling loop wont restrict your overclock. (just make sure to use a Apogee GT/GTX or Fuzion with the dual die Quad Core)

3. for the res, after the water level stops dropping and you refill it to the top you can put the cap on. that should'nt take long at all if you take care when filling the loop with water to make sure that there are not any large air pockets.

4. make sure to fill the res up to the top so that there isnt any sploshing around.

is the swiftech storm able to handle the qx6700 ??

The cooling area of the Storm is not designed to work well with the dual die quad cores. It will cool it ok, but from what users have reported, considerably better temps can be had with the Fuzion or Apogee GT/GTX

Do i need two pumps for this setup?

MY parts for the cpu block i got a Swiftech Apogee GTX
Radiator i got a Thermochill 120.2
Tubing 1/2" ID (3/4" OD) Tygon R-3603 Laboratory-Grade tubing
Distilled water and Zerex coolant
Pumps is Laing DDC-2
Swiftech Reservoir
case is Themaltake Armor Va8003bws

NO!

Only if your type of person that gets that warm fuzzy feeling from knowing
a jumbo can land on one engine even though it has four :)

seriously though, i would think about getting a top for your dcc-2 and
only think about getting another pump if you need the redundency

(remember adding pumps will mean adding more heat because of the heat dump)

Would adding another radiator Thermochill Pa120.1 to my current loop help out my temps?

short answer..yes

[Methylphenidate]

Adding another radiator is not going to make a significant difference to your temps....

Would this be the best single loop to run in my watercooling setup?

pump>rad1>cpu>rad2>res>pump

My components are Swiftech Apogee GTX waterblock
Radiator i got a Thermochill 120.1 and 120.2
Tubing 1/2" ID (3/4" OD) Tygon R-3603 Laboratory-Grade tubing
Distilled water and Zerex coolant
Pumps is Laing DDC-2
Swiftech Reservoir

Also what tubing is better 7/16 or 1/2 tubing?

really no difference
