Ok I just built this computer (see below) a few months ago and finally found time to get some games onto it, but have noticed that the GPU temp hits almost 80 C underload after intense gameplay. I bought the case because I want this to be silent so I am going watercooling to lower temp and for cool factor. I have already takin the many recomendations for types of systems available to WC. Here is my concern.
My Computer sits in front of a large sliding glass door that serves as the best and quickest ventilation for my condo. Come winter when temps here in Alaska plummet well below freezing I sometimes open that door to regulate the temp (anyone with old steam baseboard heating know what Im talking about). I have seen the processor as low as 10C on air in these situations. Is a WC'ing system get too cold and possibly freeze or condensate on the hardware?
