Changing from air cooling to water cooling

[Saaarc]

I have some thoughts to replace my condenser. In the current situation is a Zalman CNPS9700 NT to Thermaltake BigWater 745 and then a little wonder if I will notice a significant difference in temp and the noise level if not, it feels unnecessary to change but I will run with an over-q6600 which generates some heat hence the change.

Current temp with q6600 at 3Ghz:

Temp: about 45 (fan unwind hence high temperature)
Load: approx 65-70

Have you thought overclocking more than 3 GHz?

Yes, I have plans to clock up 3.6 Ghz depending on how much vCore I must have.

I know that it is more than twice as expensive but in the long run you will not regret it as the big water cooler.

Thanks so much for the tip because I appreciate the alternative to big water, but I have no desire to put lots of money on a first system but want to have reached to a good temp and able to cool an over-quad but is also somewhat quiet but as long it does not cost much. It is ok for there is about my limit for I want to add on a first system.

Edit: Saw now that there was a radiator in the 120mmx3 you linked which will be problems if I'm going to fit it in my chassis without major modifications that have been by the way a PC Lian Li PC-A71B.

120.2 series instead but if you thought water cooling the graphics card is not a stupid idea with a 120.3 for the sound level sake. Of course, you can always buy a single 120 number in the post. Buy only two fanmates for or a fan control so you can slow them down when you just surf.

Aah thank huh not a bad idea on when my IAF now has no plans to water cooling the graphics card so it is sufficient perhaps with a 120.2 and fan controls, I have already.

Thank you so much for your help.
