Yeah if I get good parts, at least I will be able to reuse the res, rad, and pump in the future.

Hopefully the x58 is not obsolete before I get it together. :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

I have many of the parts you speak of but am undecided on if I want to sell them as I plan on gettin a water setup goin again sometime. Mine will be a portable setup with quick disconnects that will allow for a quick change between a cpu block or gpu blocks. Just don't know if I will ever finish it though. Let me think about it some and I will let you know as I have those black clamps, the silver version of those black fittings I listed as well as that $120 pump and a XPSC res that can go on top of the pump.

Well let me know buddy, I know if they were in your hands I will have no worries and all those parts sound great, take your time, as my thoughts flow faster than my monies :blush:

Except to game with like I do. I ditched the water setup as personally the TRUE cools pretty damn good. My opinion is, water cooling is more for that wow factor. For looks. Yeah it can cool better but the TRUE done right can cool pretty damn well too. I guess I have that been there done that attitude. Don't let my opinion sway you though marcam as water is nice and nice to show off.

I know Nip the only reason I have held back is because my numbers on air have met a lot of water setups I have seen out there. At least for most normal circumstances, but I cannot dip my TRUE in any icy bucket now can I.

It's either water or a workstation and straight to DICE, but I do not think I wanna deal with coating boards etc, at least until I can have a setup to just consider garbage in case something were to go wrong.

p.s. I just got a call back from the local college about an IT position!!!! :clapping::clapping: Have an interview on Monday, that could mean a much nicer paycheck, plus a HUGE discount on future schooling!
