    My first setup was a TT. Don't do it. I ended up spending money on the good stuff, you will too. Save your money, get a good kit from the start.

    barftastic... if i was OP, i wouldn't know what's more offending... some folks bashing on the english level or someone calling dyslexic... lol

    OP, if you have it already, and "committed" to it, in which you cannot exchange or trade, use it.

    if not, and you are REALLY interested in WC'ing your rig properly, then consult the boards.

    in general, folks here talk out of experience... good experience...

    Again, if you received it as a gift, enjoy but keep an eye on it.

    I would equate it to purchasing a used car for more than an identical new car. You can get better a better air cooling set up for less money.

    Now I am loving water cooling, but I have realized it isn't worth making the switch to water unless you do it right (if you are spending your own money). Water can be better, but just like anything else, you can get a low grade product and end up with new technology that performs worse than your original.

    So if you have it, use it, and enjoy it. If you are thinking about getting it I would highly advise against. Just as others have said, the water block is low quality, the tubing is narrow, and the pump is weak.

    let me say it one more time: TT sucks badly. If you go to watercooling then you probably could buy something better.

    Having the rad outside the case will obviously put it in a cooler environment, just put a couple of fans on that rad, unless the tiny air pressure will break the rad, which I wouldn't be too surpriced if it happened.

    And just for the record, If ya gonna do it WC, do it well. TT is like buying a Ferrari without an engine..

    Everyone here has been telling you not to use it.....why, because it will put a very sour taste in your mouth in regards to water cooling. I've known a few ppl that used Tt, had something go wrong (like it always does) and swear off water for ever. Any time the list of positive reasons to use a product is shorter than the negative list is a sure sign you shouldn't use it, Tt's water cooling kits are in this category. Please read my sig then reconsider.

    Positive:

    It cools (barely better than air) (maybe this should be a negative?)
    cheap


    Negative:

    Weak pump
    Premature pump failures
    Res cracks
    Blocks crack
    Aluminum rad + copper block =corrosion
    anti corrosion fluid is junk
    Fittings are small and restrictive
    Poor thermal transfer from CPU to water due to poorly designed blocks

    Don't you mean it's like buying a Yugo without the engine?

    If your annoyed by sigs telling you to put things in your sig, then put this in your sig

    ok..... i just touched on this in another post..

    but thermaltake no longer uses those blocks on their new systems. they use a forged all copper block. 500L/hr pump, high quality res, and high performance rads. now the rads are alu but if you use their coolant it doesn't corrode. at least the ones i have haven't and they've been running for about a year.

    granted, the 735 that this thread is actually about does indeed have all the old cheap parts that are known to break. the 760i is the first new system with upgraded parts.

    lol, i know i know. read some review though on the 760i. its a world of difference from their older models. of course there is better, but the 760i is also very cheap.
