Watercooling components - what do I need?

[phinix]

I will watercool rig with c2duo (e6700 or sth lower and OC'd), NB, 2xhdds, 8800GTX.
What do I need?
Is one reservoir 100mm is enough? Same about 2x120mm radiator?
Are these enough?

The res is really good quality, but, the supplied brackets are crap.  The brackets are too brittle and easily snap, had free replacements from Aqua-PCs sent twice and they've all snapped.  Now using Velcro straps from Wilkos.

reservoir isnt really needed , you can use a fillport if you want too.

Do you mean that it really doesnt matter if there is reservoir or not? Even for cooling whole system? I understand that you mean fiilport with a little "can", not just a intake port?

generally speaking the reservoir is not gonna effect temps. the water is not in the reservoir long enough for the heat to dissipate, especially if it's just a plain old acrylic res.

if you don't want to use a res and free up some space then just get a T line, stick a fillport on the end and that's it



just stick on of those on the end of the T line and it will allow you to fill and close off the loop, a lot more work than using a res but a lot smaller

You're right. I'll see during buliding this case, cause it would look nicer to have that reservoirs inside and put some diod inside to light up in dark with that acid yellow color:) We'll see...
But this is very good idea! It could narrow my expenses.

And what about rest of parts I chose? Blocks - are they ok or you guys would reccomend sth else? Is there a big difference between CPU blocks? Does some of them take more heat from cpu or anything like that?
Or is there a better pump I could just plug in one of 12v psu cables and small and silent one of course?
Sorry for stupid questions, but I've never built WC system before...
