Water cooling kit...

[Jolyonekenobi]

Hi all

I wondered if anyone had any opinions / experience of using the kits produced by XSPC. I was looking at buying a custom kit using the "Extreme" CPU block and the R120T rad. Looks like a reasonable kit - just wondered if anyone had any dealings with this stuff?

Cheers

XSPC is to be stayed away from. Their rads are basically cheap hwlabs/innovatek Knockoffs that come from china and are rebadged to whoever wants to rip people off of them.

And their blocks the same. They are innovatek clones with horrible build quality.

I suggest you look elsewhere and do a custom setup.

Whats your budget and where will you be ordering from?

I've never felt comfortable about the idea of mixing water with electricity. For some reason.

I guess I'm looking at a budget of about £130/$240. This is initially for cooling the CPU only but I may look to expand that to my GPU at a later date so expansion is on the cards.

I would prefer to order from the UK - I normally use Overclockers UK as I have had some fantastic service from them in the past. They are not cheap though! If you can recommend any reliable dealers in the UK that would be a help.

Thanks

Oh - Chuck - I'm not entirely comfortable with it either but it's a like a compulsion...I can't help myself!!
