Water Loop Idea

Knight091 · May 18, 2013

I have been looking at my case and taking reading of things and come up with this plan. Tell me what everyone thinks and changes I need to make like fittings etc. I am also trying to rout the cpu tubing behind the board etc to make it look better.Thanks

Here are some of the parts so far for this build.

I already have the CPU block. I also have the fan that will be on the gpu rad.

My advice is read up on wc and don't run anything under or behind the mobo, keep the pipe lengths as short as os possible and you still might need two pumps due to flow restrictions.

The system has two pumps. The Rez is split and has two parts with each half having a Rez and a pump. Ya I will put the water loops not behind the board.

Ok dude also im not 100% sure about your spacings on your radiators it looks a bit tight but I suppose there's onw way to be sure eh.

$2000+ worth of hardware in an unworthy case. nice..........

why did you make a completely new thread after someone already called you out for having such a case?

My hardware doesn't even have a case :roll:

MxPhenom 216 · May 18, 2013

OP: I wouldn't run an x flow radiator either. they are pretty poopy since they are only single pass. I plan on getting rid of mine as soon as I can.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · May 18, 2013

I would also think you need to vent the hot air from the gpu rad outside the case and not inside of it.

Yeah but you use a tech bench, and most of those are sweet! I wanted to build my own years ago, but turned out to be way to expensive haha!

radrok · May 18, 2013

Op I would buy a MO-RA3 or Phobya 1080/1260 and stick it behind your case.

I am looking at a new case. Your right about this case. It is to small for what I want. I am looking on newegg.com and Amazon for a case now.

Knight091 · May 18, 2013

I already sold this case to a friend..lol that was fast..

Corsair 900D! run a 360 radiator in the top for your CPU, and maybe your VRMs

then get a 480 radiator for the GPUs and run it down below on the side of the panel.

Corsair Obsidian Series 900D CC-9011022-WW Black A...

I don't think you'll be able to fit a radiator+fans between the GPU's and the HDD cages.

That's why he is looking at the Corsair 900D. He just sold his HAF.

They're nice but really expensive. I'd take the 900D over that at half the price!

That is true

MT Alex · May 18, 2013

That is, too. CaseLabs are cream of the crop. There are more reasonable ones here:

http://caselabs-store.com/

It would be hard to go wrong with the 900D, too. I have a 700D (in siggy) that works just fine for me, but the 900 is much sweeter.

Knight091 · May 18, 2013

Find the Corsair Obsidian Series 900D for sale online and I will get it. I cant seam to find anyone that has it in. Thanks

radrok · May 18, 2013

Meh Caselabs are pricey and you really need to be into it and for 99% of people that is overkill even with a tri/quad gpu setup.

Get the 900D you won't regret it.

I was about to purchase it but my test bench always looks at me and I can't order without him slapping me.

You might just have to keep an eye on the retailers for it to come in. Its either in very limited supplies, or selling like hot cakes.
