    Hi,
    In the next rig I am looking to build I would like to add a water cooling system to it. I have taken a look at the range on offer but would like some input before I make my decision. I need to water cool :

    CPU
    2x VGA
    RAM
    Mobo Chipset (Optional)

    I would prefer to buy an All In One kit, but if it is a lot better buying different parts seperatly I will consider it. I would prefer to get the Top Quality (aka Best) stuff.

    CPU = Inter Core2Duo Extreme 3.0ghz ( Socket 775 )
    GFX = 2x 7900GTX ( So I will need 2x VGA heatsink's )

    I need advice on every product I will need to get the best water cooling system possible including the tubing e.t.c

    Thanks in advance for inputs.

    I have never used water cooling but I have heard that Danger Den is the best. they have a kit you can configure to your needs so you get what you want but it comes form the same place on the same bill. Here it is. I would recommend the TDX CPU block, MAZE4 SLI GPU block, the proper MAZE4 chipset vblock for your board, 1/2" high flow fittings, Black Ice Extreme II radiator, fans are up to you, Eheim 1250 Pump with 1/2" fittings, 10 feet of Tygon, the reservior of your choice, AS5 if you don't have any, non-conductive fluid, and enough hose clamps and fittings for the hole rig. That is top of the line, it brings the cost to $454.03 if you needed fans and AS5. If you needed to bring down the price you could leave out the non-conductive fluid and go a tad cheaper on the pump, but you need a lot of pumping power for all those components. the only real way to bring it down would be to water cool less components.

    Sure, DangerDen used to have a waterblock called the RDX but it isn't on their website anymore. It beats the TDX to pieces. If you found it elsewhere on the web you could get it.
