water doesn't conduct electricity

I have mine watercooled for 3 reason
>mayor noise reduction (main reasons, my fans basically never start spinning)
>more overclocking overhead
>im not a retard who cant add watercooling without it leaking
Caleb Richardson
Overclocking usually without ridiculous fans.
Jaxson Barnes
looks cool
AIOs are the default now
Nolan Hughes
are you using an AIO or some custom setup?
CPU + GPU, or just GPU?
Julian Roberts
air cooled is way more aesthetic. watercooling looks like gaymer trash. big ole hunk of noctua will look cooler any day
Lucas Rivera
this.
it aint hard and the noise factor is also my biggest concern.
Henry Thomas
ZMT Tubes all black no RGB looks way better IMHO
Jace Parker
If I was that concerned about noise I'd just do the Linus thing and use a long thunderbolt cable with the PC in another room
Connor Lopez
build it myself, its not hard. Just dont buy some alibaba tier tubing or connectors
Elijah Mitchell
Because they're passionate idiots
Brayden Brooks
sounds fun
always wanted to give it a try
Dominic Williams
and then have to get up to plug in shit or unplug it, having to get up to put in CDs, having to get up to turn it on and off... Like man when i want to work i want to work not run in circles
Luke Johnson
I use an air cooler because I like the way it looks and I have no problem keeping my system cool and quiet even overclocked by 30%. I am able to achieve that OC at 10mV over stock though but that may be down to the silicon lottery.
Jack Richardson
And having issues with power/sleep states? Also not everyone has the same space to do the "Linus thing"™
Justin Gomez
Bragging rights, its worse than air cooling.
Owen Flores
10 years ago it was for free performance, nowadays is just for aesthetics and noise.
Dominic Cox
Why do you need to plug anything on the PC side when a thunderbolt dock gives you everything?
As for tuning the PC on Silverstone, has a keyfob
Still ends up cheaper than custom loop shit

"My computer is in the living room, noise is the most important factor for me"
>"LOL my air cooling is whisper quiet, you can't even hear them"
>Check out his pc
>Press power button
>Boeing 747 starts under the table
"You call that whisper quiet? Wtf?"
>"Yeah, I'm wearing headphones when using the computer"

Although not a single one is honest about it nowadays.
Just look at all the tards in this thread right now trying to rationalize their setup as a purely practical decision.

NH-D15 doesn't have this issue
