    This document provides instructions for building a water cooled mini-ITX gaming PC in three parts. It lists the components used including a Bitfenix Prodigy case, Core i7 processor, GTX 670 graphics card, and water cooling parts from EK and XSPC. It recommends testing the water cooling loop outside the PC first to check for leaks before assembly. The full article then provides step-by-step instructions for installing the water cooling components into the small form factor system.

    Workshop: build water cooling into a mini-ITX gaming PC


    How do you create a powerful yet compact and water-cooled gaming PC?

    By David van Dantzig Wednesday 7 November 2012 05:58

    Introduction
    Building a small, yet powerful PC has become easier in recent years, especially with the Mini-ITX form factor. At
    Hardware.Info we enjoy exploring boundaries, so we added water cooling with two radiators to a Mini-ITX system to find out
    how well that works. Here is how you do it.

    Ingredients
    A compact gaming system with water cooling fits nicely
    in a Mini-ITX chassis. The Bitfenix Prodigy is perhaps
    not the smallest mini-ITX chassis out there, but we did
    manage to squeeze in a lot:

    Chassis: Bitfenix Prodigy


    Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-I Deluxe
    Processor: Intel Core i7 3770K
    RAM: Samsung Green Series DDR3-1600 8 GB
    kit
    Graphics card: ASUS GTX670-DC2T-2GD5
    SSD: Mach Xtreme Technology DS Fusion
    Series 120 GB
    PSU: NZXT Hale82 Modular 650 watts

    Fans: Bitfenix Spectre Pro 120 mm white x2,


    Bitfenix Spectre Pro 140 mm white x2
    CPU water cooling: EK Supremacy full copper &
    EK LGA115x TRUE backplate
    GPU water cooling: EK FC670 GTX DCII acetal-
    nickel
    Water pump: Laing Original DDC-1T 12V
    Reservoir: XSPC acrylic for Laing DDC
    Radiator CPU: XSPC Low Profile Radiator
    EX140 – 140 mm
    Radiator GPU: XSPC Low Profile Radiator
    EX240 – 240 mm
    Hose: Feser 13/10 mm UV light blue, 2,5 m
    Coolant: EK Ekoolant UV Blue – 1000 ml x2
    Connectors: EK ¼ inch 3/10 mm black x8,
    corners ¼ inch 13/10 mm black x2

    Lots of extra components were used in this system.

    Test it first

    Before you start assembling your water cooling setup, it's always a good idea to check each component for leaks. To do
    this, first assemble the water cooling system without connecting it to the CPU or graphics card. Fill the circuit with distilled
    water, and look closely to see whether any water comes out.
