Need help choosing a water cooling Block.

pendrin2020 · 03-07-2005, 08:53 PM

I've been cruising the main parts sites and I've seen several different blocks. All of them advertising to be the best.

I'm going to over clock my next system (arriving soon) and it has an AMD 64 3200. With an Abit mobo. (newer can't remember the model name)

It uses the Nforce4 chipset. I'm looking to pull a huge increase in clock speed and I need the best block I can get (Money is not an issue)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If money isn't an issue, go vapochill.

vapochill is a nice choice if you have the money to blow on it. If you don't want to spend that kind of money you can go with something like "swiftech". I have only had one problem with my swiftech I got two reservoirs that leaked before I got a good one. I did catch it before I put it in though. Always check them before you put them in for a day or so. I have a friend that has a big water kit. I like the refill on that kit because it is in the back of the case in the form of a overflow bottle. I don't like that way that kit mounts to the Mobo. You have to take the mounting bracket off of the processor then put the screws that came with the big water so that you can mount the water block. I would stay away from this kit if you are not comfortable with this.
