Project Blackline worklog.(still in progress)

heres my thing with OCing... I didnt build this unit with the purpose of OCing yet. Theres a reason I did this build the way it is. I am planning on adding another 3x120 radiator in the future with a bigger case.

I just dont think the one 2x120mm radiator will dissipate enough heat to OC yet. This was my first time getting into water cooling also..

I agree to a certain extent where if you are going to spend 300$ buying parts for WC then you might give OCing a shot but it depends on setup.

Understandable Sorry if I came across like an a-hole

I guess I just don't see why someone would go through the work or spend all that money to not OC at least a little...especially with air coolers like the TRUE being dead silent. I'm not snobby about it...I guess I'm of the mind that WCing is usually so you can get better OCs. Anyway, I'm not saying you shouldn't OC, it's your prerogative

Air coolers have made some pretty nice gains since I've stopped using them, I'll give you that, but I've gotten used to the better temps and TBH a TRUe isn't going to fit in any of the cases I have. In fact, there are very few new air coolers that will even come close to fitting many of the cases I have.

You will probably find it pretty easy to overclock with the setup you are making. I only use a 2X120 Rad with no problems running 3.6ghz 24/4 on my E6600... But like you said, you might overclock, but this rig isn't being built to push the limits. Though I think you will find it pretty good.

Anyway mate it looks terrific. The color scheme looks mint. You might need a cold cathode to get the most out of your UV reactive die.
