New to LCS

[themaster0071]

Hello guys,

New to the LCS scene, and have bought a Themaltake VD4000BWS, I am sure some of you are laughing already, but I didnt know about the forums until too late, and needed a all in one solution.

I have read some now and the noob guides so feel a little bit better prepared

Anyway my question is this, when the Case arrives what coolant will i get with it, or do I need to order some, and wheres the best place to get distilled water as I presume it does not come with any?

First off, let me welcome you to XtremeSystems. I hope you have found the guides useful and are soaking up the wealth of information available to you here.

secondly,

The thermaltake kit comes with coolant IIRC. Since Thermaltake mixes aluminum and copper, stick with the provided coolant to avoid galvanic corrosion.

^^^Maxxx pretty much just summed it up for everyone. And welcome to XS :D

welcome themaster0071. For distilled water go to your local motor/car store :)

Thanks its up and running and looks great, only thing I am not happy about is the so called Silent 1000 watt PSU from OCZ its noisy!

[jabski]

yeah i have heard that about the OCZ 1000 PSU. Was going to get it as it is normal ATX size. Oh well ;)

maybe all PSU's should have normal 120mm fans for silence...
