Trickle Down Effect
I may be wrong, but I don't recall seeing a feature on water cooling recently— real water cooling with a custom loop. It's something that I feel is just outside of my reach, and even though I could YouTube and Google it, I think having a severalpage feature that compares the options and pathways to completing it might be nice.
Thanks for producing the magazine. I’m an old enthusiast that has enjoyed the title since the days of Gordon. If any of you speak to him, wish him well from me. I've been very sad to see him recently, but I'm glad that he is continuing his fight.

EDITOR-IN-CHIEF, GUY COCKER, RESPONDS: Mr Rakestraw, you are correct—we haven’t done a lot on water cooling since our 'Water cooling Made Easy' cover feature in June 2022. But as we now have an expert in the field, Zak Storey, working for us again, I’m going to bring this oversight up with him in the hope that he’s able to get us up to date.
I went to our head office as part of that feature in order to get a masterclass from Zak at the time, who was using one of Corsair’s liquid cooling kits to show us how to fill reser voirs, bend tubing, and add water blocks. It was a fascinating experience, and one I’d encourage any PC builder to tr y, even if the idea of mixing liquid and PC components can seem daunting. It’s easier than it looks, and while bending pipes can take some getting used to at first, it’s actually pretty hard to get anything majorly wrong when using the latest kits.
