Is this pc water/liquid cooled? I shows in one of the pics that there is an 'Liquid Cooling Grommets'.

Sonya,the system ships air-cooled, but can accommodate a liquid cooler, should you choose to install one.

no it's not but it stays extremely cool unless you're going to add higher graphic cards I wouldn't worry about it it handles Call of Duty all that just fine

It depends on your case. I have a full tower and I had room for 2 of these and my CPU is liquid cooled. The radiator for my CPU is mounted at the top of my case. One card cooled from the front of the case, the other through the back.

No. For some reason I thought it came with liquid cooling but it doesn't however with that said very clean on the inside the cables are nicely tucked away haven't really played with it yet so I can give you I'm real opinion but I think is going to be a nice machine

My guess is the liquid cooling solution is the Thermal Paste. And no, you do not need a liquid cooling system to use this and your Noctua NH-U14S will be just fine.I recommend Arctic MX-4 for thermal paste for the lowest possible CPU temps. Hope this helped!

Looks that way. Here's a build with corsair pro series mem and that cooler - http://pcpartpicker.com/b/NQjXsY Also a close up screen shot: http://cdn.pcpartpicker.com/static/forever/images/userbuild/77728.b1a24f5062662cd6304f73aea92df294.cd0b1fb3efe5864472ef205f8d51fd0b.jpg

As long as you take your time and give yourself room to work, most components are easy to install. The graphics card should be easy. The CPU Heatsink/Fan (I hope you're using a fan and not just a heat sink) is easy enough. Make sure you have everything you need before you apply the thermal goop and attach the sink. Also, make sure the heatsink/fan fits inside your case. I've seen someone build a PC, get all the components, then find out the CPU/heatsink/fan doesn't fit inside the case. GL!

The fans are very sufficient and quiet enough. No need for water cooling. Unless you live in a tropical country and you are overclocking your machine.

No forget any type of water cooling unless you want to mod the case and run it from the outside.

Mr Crosby, Although I used liquid cooling I don't think it matters as long as it's compatible with the sized processor you plan to use. Keep this in mind... I had to return two of these boards before getting on that worked correct. It's fast and worth the wight, but just wanted you to be aware. Good luck!

do you have the dimensions on the Thermal take, I do know it does have water cooling support. At the top there is a filter you can take off to mount your radiator. If you can give me dimensions I can tell you. Is it a dual fan or single fan radiator? Just looked it up on Amazon. The top of the case has a removable dust filter and is able to support 2 120MM fans, But you can also mount your water cooler right there it would be either inside the case or you can have it popping out of the case. Probably hard to imagine what I am saying. But if you can find the pic of the top of the case youll know. Basically I would say probably, but I cant guarantee you. It does have a spot though.

No. You can use it without water cooling. If you decide to water cool youre mobo. Check out ekwb's custom water block for this mobo.

yes, i had it above 4.0 even without liquid cooling, i don't recommended that of course, my case has 7 fans and the air coming out is very hot; but the point is, it is still stable.

If it's a stock system yes if it's a aftermarket system you might have to re arrange it. Personally I go air cooling but yes the liquid cooling holes are on the case! Your welcome!!

I find the temperatures to be satisfactory, and honestly this is a very quiet graphics card. But honestly if you're looking for complete silence, I would watercool anyways. But, so far , I have no problems with my graphics card.

It has the heatsink, but I also recommend an aftermarket cooler and some thermal compound(ArcticSilver). If your PC has nice airflow and you're not planning on any hardcore gaming, you could get away with using the heatsink it comes with but your CPU might not live as long.

It comes with a heatsink and fan with thermal paste already applied.Depending on how much you want to push your processor, I would recommend finding a better heatsink since the one included is merely 'adequate' for normal uses. Mine has pretty high temps with even small overclocking with the stock cooler.

IT is similar to this one:Corsair CW-9060008-WW Hydro Series H80i Liquid CPU Cooler
