Why add a 5 when Newegg doesn't really offer much? I usually shop there and prefer other gear, though their watercooling options are pretty disappointing. Just wanted to add a bit of fun to the conversation.
I purchased products from jab-tech.com, Petra's Tech Shop, newegg, and svc.com (though the packaging was subpar - I reached out about it), and I'm satisfied with both the pricing and delivery speed.
Additionally, I bought half of my components (mainly blocks) on AnandTech and [H]ardForum. It's beneficial to join just to secure those parts, as their community usually consists of passionate or dedicated PC builders.
I purchased two USB cables from performance-PCs for $30; it was a bit too much. That's why I'll be buying from Newegg moving forward.
USB Cable costs aren't always a good sign for water cooling supplies. Prices change from place to place and depend on what you're buying. That's why I bought from various sellers. Jab-tech usually offers better prices than FrozenCPU, though svc.com had the X2O 750 at the same cost. Their fans are also quite affordable for some models (Yate loons, Scythe Slipstreams), but availability is limited. FrozenCPU appears to have a wide range of almost every component, and they offered the best waterblock deals I've seen for both GPUs and CPUs. I also found decent deals on used parts. Petra's Tech Shop stocks many small accessories you might need (additives, fan grills/filters, vibration reducers), but not as much of the big hardware, especially when I placed my order last week.
The cost of some items follows a pattern seen in a merchant's overall pricing strategy. I strongly support Newegg! Other options allow you to browse wherever you like.
I have successfully received my components for FrozenCPU and completed testing them in the Loop. If there are any leaks, I found a YouTube video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1aKoOBSL9w. The building process can be seen in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ry82r1dhJHY. As of Sunday at 1:17am, I modified the loop again and now it runs from Rev/Pump to CPU to Dual Rad to Video card to Rev/Pump. I plan to install a 120 Rad next.
Great work, how are your stats currently? Are you going all-out in your role?
As of Sunday 1:17am I modified my loop once more and now the flow is Rev/Pump to CPU to Dual Rad to Video card to Rev/Pump. In my view, it's not very efficient. You're cooling the GPU and then sending warm liquid through the pump back into the CPU—essentially targeting two heat sources before the CPU, not much heat being released from the pump. The order is: pump > CPU > GPU > Rad > CPU > GPU. Keep in mind, PS to all. Newegg is great, their watercooling options are pretty poor, but the price on an MCP355 is good and you can't find a better one there.
