Hi Guys,
I currently have a Kraken X62 on the cpu and a Evga AIO Hybrid on the gpu. As you can imagine both AIO pumps make a little bit of noise and have radiators all over the place.
So I am trying to make my build neater and at the same time see if I can make it even more quieter. (also note the cpu & gpu ran both at stock speed).
So for the pump I am a bit scared that the D5 or DDC will be louder than the AIO, so I was thinking about getting the SPC from ekwb.
So for me the best "value for money" would be to go with a EKWB Slim 360 and get a EVGA Hydro block for the gpu, but this is where I get more confused. Will the 360 with 12cm fans be as quiet as a 280 with 14cm fans? Will the SPC handle a gpu block with ease?
While I am at it, should I go hard tubing? How difficult is it?
I am afraid going custom loop is going to open a can of worms and burn a deep hole in my pocket.
What do you guys thing is the best route to build a quiet pc?
