Big Water 780, Big water 745, one big loop!

[ZCommander]

Hmm, I'm going to the local shop today to check things up.

Thermalright is unavailable in the markets here, for air coolers the big names available are :

-Zalman
-ThrmalTake
-CoolerMaster

Not too much choices.....eehh!

[IanY]

ZCommander,

Don't feel bad. I live just outside of New York City and the three brands that absolutely dominate the market are: ThermalTake, Zalman and Coolermaster. There's a reason why ThermalTake is the largest watercooling company in the world, measured by sales.

If you are in a total dilemma, work with what you have and can get. However, I would advise you to speak to your parents first. We have forum members in te Middle East here.

I forgot to mention, as long as you have a bank account, you can use paypal.

^^^This! You don't need no credit card man, i've got PayPal hooked up to my bank account. As long as it's verified you won't have an issue.

[Sadasius]

Also you can get one of those pay as you go credit cards for online purchases. There is no excuse for settling with garbage when you don't have to and when good companies ship to your area. Where I live my local computer shops suck so bad it is not even funny. I order everything online....EVERYTHING! I walk in my local computer store to get a giggle or two. Don't be in so much of a hurry to just accept anything, read, learn and be patient and you will be thankful you paid attention when you finally make an awesome build.

I returned the Thermaltake kits back, the shop refused to refund and gave me a coupon worth the amount I paid!

I can only use that money to buy from his shop!
MOFO!!!!!!

Any way, I asked him if he can get me the swiftec H20 220 Ultima, he replied that he'll have to ask the shop manager for that and reply to me later tonight!

If it doesn't work then probably I'll have to wait for them to restock with coolermaster coolers and save the rest for another HD4870 card!

[DarthBeavis]

Zalhman air-coolers work extremely well if that is an option.

good man, seriously I have used that 745 kit and it has MAJOR corrosion issues and very poor performance (on an optie 165, nevermind an i7 )

[ZCommander]

Great, the local shop decided to return my money back !!!

OK guys you valuable help is now really needed!
I'm going to order and internet only Master card from my bank and get to business!

Ok I have exactly 325 $ for the system!
so what should I get?

I live in a very hot area and I don't like to maintain stuff too much !

So suggest please!

[Eddie3dfx]

Seriously glad to hear that. If we didn't rib you, you wouldn't of been in this position

Mcr320, DDC Pump + Top, Any cpu block of your choice, S-Flex or Zalman Fans + Micro-Res.
Remember most of it is planning.

[DarthBeavis]

anyone who talks smack about Thermaltake knows nothing and is a tool. Trust an uber water-cooler like me . . . .I know my stuff . . . .TT rawks

OMG that's a nightmare.............how on earth am I going to sleep!!!

[Sparda]

Indeed they rawks. Learn the hard way. :-(

[Sly Fox]

@ZCommander

I think you'll be much happier with the Swiftech kit.

I never planned that my loop (see bottom of sig) would be so... Swiftechy, but for price/performance while maintaining quality, you can't seem to beat them.

[fart_plume]

Now if you have 2 of those blocks pictured you can mod them together like this and you won't have the cracking problem.

[aspire.comptech]

If he doesn't want to touch it, the Swiftech all in one kit with the MCR220 might be a good choice.

At the very least, invest in some Tygon 3400 or Norprene tubing and you can go years without a coolant change.

[Grinch]

TT is the friggn poop jam!......NOT!

I like it, might get another coolant with red color!

yeah that is good choice to have complete sets of LC...especially with the GTZ block..

about the coolant, of course you can change it into red coolant, but for the best, i suggest take a UV tubing rather a coloured coolant, primochill which i prefer..

express mail is ussualy ship below 7 days or more to arrive, i ussualy have the first mail one from US(with USPS), and it arrives about 2 week, and i think its quite fast for the cheapest shipment fee..

[ZCommander]

I'm able to squeez it to 390$ !

Should I pick parts or go with a kit?

[ewitte]

Be nice the guy is new. Teach him, don't make personal attacks.

TBH any personal attacks would be against TT not the OP

That kit looks wonderful for a CPU loop, I say go for it

The Express gonna stuck at Saudi customs anyway and it will also take more than 4 days. So it lost it purpose. :P So use USPS Priority.
That a lot of funds for a kits. Prefer pick up part. Just list them here so that you wont accidently picking up a SilentX fans.

This is the only option for shipment to Saudi Arabia as the other aren't available from sidewinder that is why I post it like that or else I would of took another option

take the whole kit as it is if you want to pay for that price as it is on special at sidewinder in this package deal and you can do cool what you want with this kit.


Make it 2 weeks at worst case scenario.

You might want to look into the custom. I know in Canada I have to pay on top of it for my country tax I don;t know about your country.

Don't use UPS they will charge you extra fee on top of the custom.
