Tt-Van Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 I am still new to the PC building world and I would like to know if you prefer air or water cooling for your builds. From what I do know, Water is higher end but can be risky if you do not know what you are doing. Before I make this choice on my personal build I would like to hear your thoughts.

HappyBuddhaman Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Water, if you're overclocking, it's the only option. Unless you're crazy, (and rich enough) to run phase change. CyberDustin777 and Tt-Van 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10e Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 It all depends on your components. In general if you want to run Multi-GPU water cooling is preferred, as more often than not, the top GPU will suck heat from the bottom one, and with water cooling this isn't an issue. In some configurations air cooling can be fine too, but it's always best to have custom cooled video cards with a spare/empty PCI-E slot in between them to avoid this scenario. Since TT now makes some epic water cooling cases now, and if they are your preferred case vendor, then it's a no-brainer. I have a Core V1 and V31 and the V1 with a small mod (cutting the mobo tray) can hold a massive, front-mounted 200mm radiator, and the V31 can actually hold two 360mm radiators, which is amazing for this size of case.

Chiobe Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Air if you want less to do with your pc, other then dusting. Water if you like spending time working on your pc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
