Oh my god those Alphacool radiators, why are they so thick? That looks like TWICE the thickness of HW Labs 140 rads. I do have an EK dual 120 radiator and its got low fin density for quiet performance, not actual cooling performance.
I get a lot of hate critique for the loop that I installed for my friend. People are soooo against soft original Tygon tubing, like it HAS TO BE HARDLINE with colored clogging dye's. And most of the people who have something to say don't even match the same hardware. They'll judge my builds...
A single Quad 140mm, but I sometimes use a single Quad 120mm. Soon I want to switch to Two Dual 120mm radiators and move the radiators inside a case. That Quad Radiator is being held up by a Koolance Radiator quick disconnect system, but they only made it for 120mm radiators, so I modified it...
I was able to avoid tight turns by going from Pump output -> Underneath video card input flow -> video card top output flow -> Radiator in -> Radiator Out -> CPU in -> CPU out -> Pump in
I used to go from Pump output -> CPU input -> CPU output -> GPU input (this is usually where the sharp bend...
One more thing, I would avoid rotary fittings. I've seen brand new ones leak during a leak test. They would have caused a huge catastrophe if I didn't run a leak test.
It was one of these that rotate right at the split line in the middle. Avoid using these if possible.
I use this stuff. My 2080ti water block corrodes and I replace some distilled water with this stuff to neutralize the pH so the green corrosion stops building up. I use EK Cyrofuel which prevents my QD's from seizing, but then a second problem came from the EK 2080ti water block so the Koolance...
A good way to refurbish used water cooling gear is to buy new o-ring seals for them. I build custom water cooling PC's for a friend of mine and he hands me down all his old rads / pumps / blocks. Sometimes a new o-ring wasn't really needed, but I replace them anyway. MCP 35X2 pumps have...
I read the guides and there's no way to get it to boot reliably for the Surface II.
If someone disagrees and wants to take stab at it, the Surface II tablet is available for you. Comes with a charger. PM me zip code to calculate shipping. Pending
