Post your cooling.

No clue. It's the stock cooler, I've never dismounted it. The case is upside down on the desk.
Figured I'd show the cooler, cause well, it looked strange to me too. How HP does it lol.
Trying to get it to see a NV card (GT 620) but can't get it working. :( (no big deal, it's just a spare box sitting round')
 
Switched it up a little..

I'm never planning on doing hard tubing again. Tygon A-60-G for me next time.

I broke this cheap ass EK pump mount (again), so its just zip tied for now. Plan is when I upgrade cases on my next build (thinking maybe Zen 6?) I'll get an Aquacomputer or Heatkiller pump/res or some sort of dual pump solution and be completely free of anything from EK.

Stunning!!! What are your specs of that beast? I see some TeamGroup Narvik black RAM!! I'am looking for ODC's and wondering what you used and how your experience is with them in the loop? Any flow problems? Also, what temps you get with all those rads?

This Ali Express pump just showed up from the other side of the world. Hope it's strong enough to push through a couple rads and GPUs on my test bench.

Custom loop for me. Hardline. Dual pump.

You might be able to see the fact I used only two long screws for the fans on the inside. You might also look at the GPU bracket, please ignore that (It works).

It's dusty because it goes 24/7 at like 40% fan power. I just clean the filters every few weeks.

This is one of those little cheap Gamemax (Spark Bk) cases (built several). r5-7600 with an rx7600. 3 140mm fans and 3 120mm fans in a 45 dollar case. Runs cool and quiet. Room for a bigger cpu cooler too.

Great beginner rigs.
 
Still using the same 240mm artic II I've been using for years. Still got the p12 max fans so it cools as well as an artic II 360, just a lot louder. Luckily that full rpm isn't usually needed cause man those things are loud at full blast.

Anyway I think I still have pic here from before:

Here I guess I should go a bit further than recycled pic of the whole pc.... here's the original box for the aio and for the high rpm fans too:

I know its nothing fancy but it meets my needs.

Quite simple build. Arctic Liquid Freezer 2 360 out, 3*140mm in.

And I'm using the Meshfront on the Silent Base 802 with a closed side panel.

Something about that tower cooler trips me out. Its like an optical illusion. When seen from the top, its like I don't perceive the height and it looks just like a flat thing on the motherboard. I remember this same thing happened once before and I asked " what the heck is that???" before I decided to google it like right after and find out its just a.... tower cooler. Hahaha.... That was kind of kind of embarrassing.

Well anyway, very cool looking build you have.

These are the last days of my air cooled build. The issue isn't the AK620 Digital cooling the 5700X3D, far from it. It's the Radeon suffering with high ambient temperatures (easily over 33C) even with all them fans trying to push air.

wow, the LOVED by anyone sapphire suffering?:rolleyes::D
 
I am broken :(

Been working on putting test benches together today, which included 3 Chinesium water loops. 2 of the loops are on one test bench because these cheap ass pumps didn't put out enough pump head so I had to split it in half. It's quite the abomination so I take picture :D

I mean I really can't complain too much. I cannot justify spending another $300 or so on a dual D5, and these pumps are putting out plenty good enough flow with split loop. 3 cards, 4 rads, and a monoblock was too much for one

Man I haven't seen those anti-kink coils on a build in like 15 years.
 
Nothing that crazy, LIAN Li Galahad II, vertical mounted MSi RTX 4070 12GB. 13 total fans, and 1 fun screen. Using a LIAN Li O11 Dynamic EVO.

Runs cool as a cucumber @ 5.2GHz Pcore, 4.2GHz Ecore, 4.5GHz Ring daily.
