CorsairR CWCH50-1 Water Cooler

On my last thing to buy for my PC build, now the problem is the fact that what the hell does it use to cool the CPU? Is it just plain water, or somekind of a water with added chemicals?

Also, any idea how it gets refilled? I checked the review video those idiots didn't mention that....

Overall, I think it's quite a nice product to be honest, I can't be bothered building my own water cooled anyway.

No thanks, I can get a big ass Zalman Cooler for cheaper than that 70 dollars one.


Turns out Zalman Flex was the same Zalman Flex on my list, but I decided I wanted something stronger, but people rate it very good and it's very quiet. (Look at the design of that baby) So I guess I will put it back on :P




Quality Piece.

you only get what you pay for, you spend 20 dollars or so on something like that , chances are you are going to get illlegitmate quality of a product.

That what you displayed is not even close to water cooling, what I gave you works because I know a friend who has a 6 core processor and it works wonderfully.

there is no noise to the Eco ACL

Did I ever say that the Zalman Flex is a water cooler? Seriously...

[Tidenburg]

Ugh.

Since I took Lennard's advice, I'm actually going to buy the Antec 1200, the 12 drives just absolutely sucked me into it :D And for a 58 tall case combined with 1200w Corsair with 7 year warranty for 200 and 120 for a PC case is just great!

How powerful is your PC going to be? Water cooling is totally pointless for most PC's, even gaming rigs. I have an i7 950, GTX 580, 6GB Ram etc and all I have is a different heatstick to the intel stock, and case fans.

Well so far I am aiming on:

CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 Quad 955 Core 3.2GHz Processor 4 x 512 KB Boxed - Black Edition

GPU: Sapphire ATI AMD HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 HDMI Graphics Card PCI-E 2.1 x 2

Motherboard: ASUS Crosshair IV Formula - AMD 890FX - Socket AM3 - PCI-E 2.0 - DDR3 1600/1800/1866 - SATA 6Gb/s RAID - SupremeFX X-Fi Audio - CrossFire - ATX

(Compatible with almost everything for gaming, even has an overclock switch)

Case: Antec 1200 and probably going to fill 5 cases or so with 1tb if I am bored.

Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar 1TB SATAII 64MB Cache 3.5-inch Green Internal Hard Drive OEM (Don't need more than 1TB and if something they are very cheap and I can buy another one.)

Ram: Corsair CMX6GX3M3A1600C9 3 x 2GB DDR3 SDRAM Memory (Basically 6GB Ram, which is going to be very awesome for 3DS, Photoshop and UDK.)

Monitor(s): Iiyama ProLite E2208HDS-B2 Widescreen Monitor 22 inch TFT LCD 1000:1 300cd/m2 5ms (1920x1080) D-Sub/DVI-D (Black) (PLE2208HDS-B2) x2 FAP FAP FAP FAP FAP FAP*

Cooler: Zalman Ultra Quiet CPU Cooler with Dual Mount Support for OC if needed.

PSU, Corsair 1200w (AWEZOME)

So yeah that's the basic summary. I did ofcourse increase the cost by a bit since I got a job now so got more open room. At first my budget was 1000Ã,£, now I am going to 1500 or so. Probably even less.

Are you going to be overclocking? Don't waste money on over clocking components if you wont be doing it since the included coolers are more than adequate for any CPU running stock settings. Your money is better spent on a good CPU + chasis anyway. A 1200w power supply is complete over-kill and seasonic >>> corsair, seasonic manufactures the high-end corsair PSUs.

I wouldn't bother with crossfire either since you can get high frame rates at high resolutions with a single card.

[DreadStunLock]

The thing is, if I don't get a solid 60 FPS + on BFBC2 on 1 card, I will overclock first, if that won't do, I will crossfire it.

Honey inside that Corsair is seasonic ;)

Both of them anyway makes good PSUs.

+ I wouldn't be buying 1200 PSU if I wasn't either OCing it, or Crossfiring it. I would have bought 850 instead.

As well as, this thing about being able to run BFBC2 on max settings is just killing me, but I just badly want to feel that feel of being able to run a 2010 game for once!!!

Did I not say that?
