question: would coppper piping help or just cause more heat

me

Copper piping or tubing in place of flexible tubing yields no real benefits and can be a major pain in the butt. One of the big challenges of any water cooled rig is squeezing everything into a small computer case. I used copper tubing for a while and it doesn't help or hurt cooling. What it does do, however, is get in the way and, because it is so inflexible, require that you take your whole cooling system apart if you want to get to something behind it.

almost same responce as above


plus its more expensive.....plus it would be a little more difficult to make the connections (especially if you want it watertight so it dont leak)


it doesnt help and doesnt hurt as far as heat disappation goes.....
