Cooling your PC

Post by nicoX »

With today's hardware being much power consuming the heat they radiate becomes for very hot.

I watercool my PC. CPU, GPU and PSU. I have no fans since my watercooler is evaporates the heat. And the PSU is a Koolance Liquid Cooled.
My idle CPU goes around 48-51 summertime, but the heat exchange is very high, and my room goes hot.

What are the alternatives to get your PC cooler if watercooling isn't enough.

You can't dump that much heat into a loop and expect to run it fanless, the temps would be a lot more manageable on high-end air or custom water with fans on the radiators I should imaging.

I second that...use fans,
I had over 10 fans in my old WC 2 loop PC. still really quiet..(maybe coz I had a T-Balencer helping out)
