    Have you fucking even done water cooling? It doesnt heat the room if any. Typically the ambient is enough to cool the water before it gets to the radiator and you're blowing ambient air around.

    Are you talking to me? Yeah, I have a shit load of water cooling experience. Far more than yourself without any doubt. I'm built my own custom radiators welded tanks and brazed connections, pumps, I've even machined my own waterblocks and reservoirs. I competed in overclocking competitions. I've done some very advanced stuff. Not just some plug and play water cooling kit. Did you even read what I typed? And bullshit on heating a room. I don't know what kind of setup you're running, but on full loops with southbridge, GPU, CPU, Memory blocks, etc. it's like an oven in the room. Any person that had interest in my setup I had put their hand over my radiator and they were amazed with the heat it generated.

        Typical AbecX smartass hit and run shit talking as usual. I'm selling a Laing D5 adjustable pump, Eheim 1260, Multiple water blocks, 1/2" loops, and several different watercooling setups. It's not in my best interest to not recommend a WC setup to any of these guys. But the truth is it's an unnecessary hassle for them unless they have an actual purpose for it. If you think I'm full of shit then take the time to explain it.

          Write me up a price for water cooling an MSI Lightning GTX 480, AMD 1090T, in a Cooler Master HAF 922 case.
          I would probably be happy with just water cooling the 480.

            Big whoop, i have a 2JZ engine radiator in my setup with a thermaltake 2827J RR spec radiator and F9 Allstar Radiator with an Antec Fata1ity edition fan.


            "It will increase the temperature of an average room 10 degrees or more" is insane.

              Hey buddy, I'm sorry you've never had that experience before. If you're running a large loop (or dual loops) with an overclocked system it will easily do that. But enough with the bullshit accusations and focus on answering some questions. What are you running in your loop?

                So you go to the extreme and blanket statement all of watercooling will increase your ambient room temperature by 10 degrees. The statement is insane even with a CPU and single GPU configuration.

                  Not at all, with an overclocked CPU and GPU it will be hot as hell. I honestly do not understand how someone with the experience you're claiming doesn't find it heating up your room. Maybe if you're running a newer processor that doesn't heat soak as easily, but with overclockd C2D systems and Phenom, it belts heat out of dual and triple 120mm radiators.

                      TIL that if you don't use your system for more than %25 of it's capabilities, your computer area stays cold.

                        Some of the 200mm case fans move a good amount of air, I had a vantec tornado in an old machine, they move 120cfm but they are fucking loud. I never ran a fan controller to lower the noise.

It's very tiny, and it's only good for a processor, not a full loop. If you put a GPU on that loop it would be CONSIDERABLY hotter than air cooling. As a matter of fact, a decent copper heatsink would outperform that kit. I would not even recommend it. It's also an aluminum rad and copper block, so it would require special fluid to prevent corrosion.
                          Will you take $10 for the pump. Because I can get it brand new for $12...

                              I have 6 cpus already at 3.4GHz, why would i need to overclock?

                                I knew that would get a response from you. I was just givin you grief. I have my FX8120@4.3Ghz on a Corsair H-80 and it stays at or below 50c and doesn't heat the room. I have it OC'd to that point for F@H and compiling Android in a VM.

                                Afa heat goes, my three OC'd GPU's put it much more heat than any cpu I've ever seen considering they run in the mid 60-upper 70c range while performing calculations for F@H.
