I see all the big gamers with liquid tubes in their computers, sure: I know It's the best way to cool your PC. But it's Expensive, and the thought of fluids running around in my brand new 1400 dollar PC quite frankly, makes the hairs on my neck stand up. I've noticed lately almost all of the computer parts manufacturers are making vast improvements on the amount of heat that their parts produce inside the computer case. I know my computer in it's current state probably doesn't need a liquid system, but i plan on running SLI x2 or even x3 (2 or 3 video cards) and may over clock my processor. So my question is this:
With my stats listed below, will i need liquid if A, I overclock my processor to 3.0ghz, B, I get 1 or 2 more video cards, or both,
or even C in it's current state? Keep in mind that I can buy fans/heatsinks for the processor and video cards, and i have a very well-ventilated thermaltake case.
