Just a rant here but I really dont understand why people use water cooling now, I mean a 2500K will happily go to 4.8Ghz on a decent air cooler. The limiting factor isnt the heat, its the CPU you happen to have.

now being you can get 4.8 on a Decent air cooler what do you think i can do with a custom water loop :twisted:

yes but thats just sandy bridge i would still put it underwater to hit the 5ghz mark but on the side of that if they are that overclockable i would want to see the results with socket 2011 ;)

Here is another guide:http://www.koolance.com/technical/cooling101/001.html . Btw, Koolance makes best water cooling products, the main thing you have to be careful about is the pump- if you buy a cheap water cooler and if the pump fails or suppose you were not there when it does- you'll wreck your entire system. So my recommendation would be: Buy a good quality water cooler or don't buy at all.

agree Danger Dens Pumps and Swiftech are two of the best so far.

Why do you need a guide, just plug stuff in, it really can't be rocket science.

actually if the barbs are not fitted properly it can leak all over your system, now i know you don't want that happening now do you :p

Can someone please recommend me a good water cooling guide? (I'm a beginner to water cooling)

xtreme systems has a good one you can follow, there is also this one i followed myself :)http://www.overclock.net/water-cooling/766479-watercooling-guide-beginner.html

Meh ill upgrade my system when socket 2011 comes out hopefully by then the gtx 595 hits the market.

doesn't changed the fact if you up the bus speed like that , you're whole motherboard is overclocked. I always find a overclocked pc working less stable no matter how much tweaks you do. A small overclock though is not noticable and you still feel the speed if you go from 2,4 to 2,8 ghz

so my i7920 at 4.2 is unstable?? i highly doubt it ,also you aren't going to notice a 400mhz difference either.... this is why they made (Stability test programs) such as prime 95/Linpack/occt/interburn test and there are others.

i was thinking that i should upgrade it when the new consoles hit the markets but some ppl suggested that i should go for an upgrade now

cuz my machine just wont survive tha accelerating improvement in graphics

what do you think?

i would personally wait till socket 2011 comes out, it should be released by fall or chirstmas this year.
