water cooling question

aggrojosh · 03-11-2002, 03:47 PM

i've been thinkin of adding a vid and chipset waterblocks to my current wc/pelt setup. if my water is cooling two 172watt pelts then i had the water cool my vid then my chipset, would the vid and chipset be too warm from the pelts?, i was also considering on running an 80watt pelt on the vid and chipset. would that be too much?

how high are your water temps anyway? That will affect the cooling of the GPU and NB drasticially, an 80w pelt would be fine for the GPU, but probably a bit too much for an NB, I'd just leave the NB at ambient

From what I've seen water temps before and after the CPU are almost the same so it shouldn't make much difference.
