Hello, I have not built a PC in many years in fact the last computer I built was before intel's I series was a thing so I am a bit behind on modern technology but I am doing my best to catch up. I have a new build I want to do over the next two months to get myself a pc to last at least 5 years without getting dated. I am looking at the I9 series at the moment with the comet lake architecture although I have been considering some AMD chips too and that side of things has not been finalised in my plans yet.
Ok to the point, is water cooling worth the extra effort setting up. I have never had anything to do with water cooling before and there a few things I do not understand fully yet like do a lot of them use thermometric cells (peltier devices)? and is the system connected in one big loop and if so will the water not already be warm when it reaches the last components? and what components do you water cool apart from the obvious GPU and CPU do you have water blocks on the north bridge and ram too or any other chips on the board?
