FrostChill Cooling System

I've noticed that no one recommends it...is it not worth the $160.00.
Thanks

FrostChill is worth it, but it has a nich. Typically, $2600 to $4000 price range. After that, TEC-Chill, before that, air cooling.

1. you dont need LC at all.

2. if you want lc go with stage 4, frostchill does not have the good components (good wb and rad).

your config is not giving the best performance for your money and hailstorm does not have great airflow at all.

what res you gonna be gaming at and the games you play do they utilize sli correctly?

what was the price of that config you posted?

for about $130 more you can have sli 570, much much better psu, a case with proper airflow, with sli in hailstorm you are not gonna have great airlfow.

at the end for around $3000 you can have sli 570 and all:

this system will have better load temps cause the case has much much better airflow.

now if you do this exact config with hailstorm/assassin you will be paying hundreds more for no performance gain, if anything you pay more and lose performance.

You never told me the native res of your monitor, I need to know that, otherwise I'm just recommending the dark. The entire build of the pc is around the res of the monitor, if you are looking for a monitor then we need to nail that down first, otherwise we wont' know if you are wasting money on 2.5GB version of 570 or not, if you even have use for sli or not, etc.

for 1900 x 1200 if you are planing on maxing out games like bf3, my config is twice as powerful as your config in gaming and games like bf3, you won't be running bf3 in max setting with good minimum fps with a single 570/580, but sli 570 will do it. However the 2.5GB version of 570 is not needed, but the price difference is not much, if you like to save money go with 1.2GB version of 570 sli.

for 1600 x 1200 a single 570 is more then enough and the 2.5GB version is a waste.

My pleasure and good luck                  

I personally don't care for the nvidia one but its cool, it has green fans, problem is that there is no oem 200mm green led fan to add to the optional top, they come in blue or red.

you want to tell DS to add a "oem 200mm red led fan" to the optional top slot.

Because the a70 has better performance, a70 and noctua are king till you get to stage 4 lc.

My pleasure and good luck                                       

I have one and love it, its last years model, this years model:

Dell UltraSharp U2412M

My pleasure and good luck
