Water cooling the Asus Maximus SE X38

[Talonman]

Is it really use full to water cool the mosfet ? Sorry for the newbie question

I am going to dance around this question best I can withought offending the Water cooling boys.

MOSFETS do need cooling. I opted for heat sinks myself. The thing you need to know is that the MOSFET blocks are the most restrictive. If you are running 1 loop only, how many blocks are you planning on putting in it, and how much rad do you have?

I am going to cool CPU, NB, and 1 bad boy GPU, in my 1 loop using the ThermoChill PA.120.3 radiator and D5 pump.

I think if I would have put a CPU, GPU, NB, SB, and 2 MOSFET blocks in my 1 loop, my temps would have suffered. By cooling my SB with the Enzotech Forged Copper CNB-S1L sink, and dedicated 60mm Panaflo axial fan rated at 12CFM, and my MOSFETS with Thermalright heat sinks, I think I did myself a favor.

Tough call to make...
