    Really like it Renno! As for being cheap, that's debatable.

    This is the one Sixer and Chuck lead me too. It keeps my idle temps at 28C.

    Newegg.com - Antec Kuhler H2O 620 Liquid Cooling System


  3. Well shit duke I can idle that on air :p Idles are nothing to worry about unless you know.... you forgot to put the cooler on!

    So you doing water cooled 580's or did u decide to go air renno?

    Ok sorry for being polite. I think mine is just as good and for 1/3 the price.

    I didnt even attack that but since you bring it up... Had to go check but he is planning getting these graphics cards - Newegg.com - EVGA 03G-P3-1591-AR GeForce GTX 580 (Fermi) Hydro Copper 2 3072MB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

    Theyre meant for/have to be on water cooling but they cant be added to your Antec. He already has a water cooling system in place which does the job for CPU only work already. A custom system is pretty much the only way to put graphics cards into the loop and while I have seen modified systems based on the Antec and Corsair assemblies its a really bad idea. Radiator is 3 times larger and with 2 graphics cards added to the loop the water is going to be hotter. Also have to have a decent pump to back the whole system up.

    All i tried to say was that your idle temperatures are not what you should be worried about. My air cooled temps writing this are in the range of 27 to 30C. The differences in our load temps with yours being cooler are what matters. I might hit 60C on a bad day and you might hit say 45C.

    Definitely not as good, but it's an honorable mention for Sandy Bridge chips. I like that XSPC RS240 kit, but I'd much prefer a 2x140mm radiator kit.

    Duke that system is AWESOME if you want to stay with a minimal overclock and not cool video cards or be able to upgrade in any way.
    With this system you have an actual loop that you can add extra water blocks to. Pretty much it is a starter kit and compared to its competition the
    price is OUTSTANDING.
    Here is its competition.

    Swiftech H20-320 EDGE HD Series Liquid Cooling Kit - White CPU Block (Universal Mount) - FrozenCPU.com $269.95

    Ek H30 Supreme HF 240 CU Advanced Liquid Cooling Kit (EK-KIT H3O - Supreme HF 240 CU) - FrozenCPU.com $240.95

    Ya should be fine with the XSPC kit. I took a look around and apparently XSPC doesn't make/brand any 140mm radiators--much less 2x140mm radiators! Black Ice has a radiator that would fit but it's $80 alone, and a similar pump/res would cost a helluva lot more.

    I have a pretty damn big case and, if I bought another, it'd be another Lian-Li. The PC-9F & PC-Z60B both have a single 140mm fan mount on top while the A05 series don't have any stock mounts. 'Sides, I keep my computers on the desk so size kinda does matter. If I bought any LL case, it'd probably be an A05FNB.

    I rarely stop at A or, if I do, it's at the edge. Usually cause I was the first one there and want the extra points for Engineer. 'Sides, A isn't the problem--C is. Literally everyone stops at C and nobody continues onto B. After 3-4 guys have been killed at the top of the escalator, they all stop and forget how the fucking killing any enemies, much less break through. At least from A, most players continue through and even those late joiners have the entire atrium to shoot across.

    I can't get on TS, especially not when gaming. My bandwidth is limited and pings go through the roof when I do join. God, I miss my old ISP and the 16/4 (minimum) package.

    Ahh, gotcha. Just showing my ignorance to the tech world. :) I looked into it more now and I wasn't thinking about the OC'ing either. That thing is really nice and as it (and you) mentioned a good price. Thanks for the enlightenment.
