Creating a Water Cooling System

[StevieMo]

Hi all. This is my first post. Hope you all can help.

I am fed up with the noise of my CPU fan so want to build a water cooling system.
I only want to cool my CPU to start off with.. then chipset, HD and Graphics Card.

First off all could you recommend a case that would fit in say 2x 120mm fans and is tall enough for the water cooling equipment.

I want to custom build the water system with the best parts available. (Price/Performance)

What do i need and what are the best?

Thanks in advance for any replies.
Cheers!
Stephen

this case


you can fit a bix at back where 120 mm fan is , or remove hard drive cage to place a dtek heater core in it

for pump consider mcp650 12 volt at swiftnet or buy from dangerden . both same pump


for waterblock consider the TDX , some will suggest the MCW6002 swiftnet block as well



some 1/2 inch line will be needed then that should work well
