yup. asked him to quote me but his pad is 1.5mm. look like i need to compress the block hard enough for memory chip and the amp.

contacted ezzy and he said will come back to me today. Somehow nic already quote me.

haiz. ezzy forgot to reply me back about the thermal pad stock.

btw anyone selling ek-fc580 gtx back plate black or shiny also can but prefer shiny to match my compression.

he replied me the day before ytd saying need to check stock and update me ytd but until now no news. samore apes web only show 0.5mm pad. haiz better go for niclas 1.5mm easier.

EK-FC580 GTX backplate can be use on GTX480 with EK-FC480 GTX waterblock right?

extreem using it on 480. hmm. hunting ek nickel backplate now

*hmm.overlooked at your stock rasa pump. yeah. better change the pump.

you need to plan ahead. I saw you got a crosshair mobo. Do you want to wc your mobo chipset/ram in the future? if current you just want to wc cpu & gpu. i think you are fine with changing the pump and add waterblock for gpu. Double check your block with the link below:

EK block checker

btw change your stock rasa fan to Artic F12 or Scythe Gentle Typhoon 1850rpm for more effectiveness cooling your rad. For UV reactive you can have 2 type option either using adding UV dye or using UV tubing.

your current setup temp is consider good. if gpu maintain 70c ok dy since the stock kit can do the job although dah reach limit. if you not intend to buy new pump, you can slowly hunt for 2nd pump until the stock pump die. i suggest you slowly convert to custom wc or direct sell the stock kit

my gtx480 idle 4xc and load <60c

lol. you comparing 7970 with nvidia bro. he using MSI GTX580 OC with ek block based on his siggy.

wow keng. push pull 360 with delta. Have you check with Nic for the delta fan? Those delta are bloody noisy. Overkill for me.

Nic

if you not going to change new card, just hunt 2nd hand full block almost half the price now i guess. Extreem selling.

haha. 1 of my gt fan will be spinning at 3xx rpm although i turned off from my fan controller.

check our apes store. 1/2 3/8 most of them in store

Apes Store

if you want 1/2 3/4 90 deg triple rotary ar in stock in apes. well. since you get ezzy to search for you better go back to him. his delivery is efficiency.

otai owikh, what is your opinion between XSPC, Primoflex LRT tubing & Feser tubing? i might be change to white tubing later since tygon silver is hard to purchase here. i think 3 of them is anti-kink tube right?

okey bro owikh. update us if xspc feel better in bending. so far my mind was on primoflex tubing as a replacement. thank you

as dennos said double check your psu multi rail or single rail? if single rail, no need problem.
if multi rail you need to double check your total amp load on the 12v rail. Example you got 3x 15 amp rail mean 1 rail max 15 amp. so dont overload the rail >15 amp otherwise not stable on the particular rail.

anyone visited Cyntix Tech shop and where is his shop anyway?

tygon silver have? im looking for tygon silver tube
