    • haha good pickup.

  • Coming up as 98 AUD Delivered.

  • Stupid question from a newbie to this stuff, is this all you need to have this liquid cooled system or do you need something else for it to run apart from the computer itself

      This is all you need to cool only your CPU.

    • Could you please be more specific. All you need is a 140mm Fan mount somewhere close to the CPU slot, a SYS_FAN header and CPU_FAN header on the motherboard. Yes I learned all that watching LinusTechTips youtube video.

    Not going to bad mouth this deal, however, I would go for a Noctua NH D14 over a Hydro (or any of these sealed water cooling units.) I do have a water cooled setup, but I have spent more than $700 for the water cooling components.

    TL;DR, if you have a well ventilated case, go for a Noctua NH D14. If you want to enjoy water cooling (and don't mind cleaning and flushing the system regularly) go for a proper water cooling set up.

    • i would go the D14 if you had the room. AIO units are perfect for mitx cases though. example of the h90 in a node 304 case: http://www.overclock.net/t/1372265/build-pics-node-304-gtx-t…

    • I agree.

      Noctua seems to beat all but the corsair H100.

      I would go water over air any day.

      At peak loads air might be slightly, slightly better - but the rest of the time water will kick its ass.

      Also your water cooler is tiny on the CPU - the good air coolers are huge beasts - some weigh as much as 500 grams….

        Thats incorrect.

        Most water cooling kits are worse then air cooling.

        The kits that do beat air cost a lot of money.

        • +3

          Correct.

          @Greatwhitehunter,
          To get a proper water cooling set up, you need to invest in a good radiator, good blocks, pump, tank, piping, fans for the radiators and coolant. You just can't have a block for the CPU and ignore the remaining heat producing components. So more blocks, which brings different attachments into the picture, aka more cost.

          Once you have that set up, then you work towards creating a proper positive airflow for your case and make sure your radiator's air circulation is not affected by it.

          Chucking a pre-built water cooling component for just the cpu isn't the best of cooling solutions.

          Also, don't forget the pump and fan noise problems the Hydros were plagued with till recently. Not sure if they fixed that yet.

          If you cannot afford a proper water cooling system and cannot commit to maintaining your water cooling set up regularly, I would advice to go for a full Noctua air cooling setup. Unless you want to do some good amount of over clocking, you will be fine with a good air cooling system. The new AIO units prefer built in water cooling though because of their lack of space.

      Air doesn't always win (especially due to bulk directly above the CPU for certain cases). But yes, these are similarly priced or more expensive generally.

      • Which is basically

        spend $169 on a Corsair H110 or spend $65 on a Thermaltake Frio for the same performance.

        The only thing I've ever liked the under $200 water cooling kits for was my media PC.

    PCcasegear or this? amazon has lower price but with shipping it might not be worth it.

    • 17AUD is the difference. Bear in mind Amazon USA beat their expected delivery date for me.

      I'd personally buy from pccg, knowing it will be packaged well and good customer service.
