Hey guys I'm new to the forums not necessarily new to building computers. I'm on my 4th home built pc.
I'm in the process of brainstorming on a new computer case, and was wondering what the maintenance cycle on water cooling systems is? I've seen a couple posts with corrosion on the block for processors. How often do these systems have to be taken down fluids changed etc. I'm sure there are several schools of thought. What is the wear cycle on hoses fittings etc?
I couldn’t find that in the f.a.q stuff (I'm sure I missed it).
I'm looking to cool a quad core and my nvidia 9800gx2. Nothing is over clocked at the moment. With air cooling in a thermaltake armor case everything stays fairly warm. I'm not looking to wreck my equipment.
