Hello, I've been out of the loop (pun intended) for quite a while but I need some help with a new build now. I need a new PC for my dorm about a month from now but don't have much space so I decided to take the SFF route. I also want to water cool because I haven't done it in a while and it is cool.
I want to make a loop that cools the CPU and GPU. I don't even know what's good anymore, probably an i7 quad core and a GTX280.
I couldn't really find any good cases but this one caught my eye: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119195
It is ATX and in it's horizontal orientation, it will save me a lot of space. I'm thinking about cutting two 120mm holes on the side with a 120mm cutout and mounting a dual rad there which will be external. I'll probably have to use a lot of elbows in the loop. I'm mainly looking for more case options, a good full cover block, and perhaps a cpu block + pump package to save space. I couldn't find the Apogee Drive for sale anywhere by the way.
Thanks for any help!
