    Posted: 11 Dec 2008 at 10:44pm
Not long ago I purchased my Digital Storm machine and a few months later the new Nvidia cards and intel I7 chips came out. I have a frostbite liquid cooled system, I was wondering, if I wanted to changeout my mobo and cpu how would I do it with the water cooled block? Do I have to drain everything - how do I do that? Is there a guide somewhere to show me how to do this properly??

well you would at least have to get a bracket to go from the 775 socket to the 1366 socket that i7 uses.  Not sure if DS could send you one or not for use with their liquid cooling.

Get a D-Tek Fuzion V2 or a Swiftech GTZ, the 2 best water blocks on the market right now. Both are $60.
