Dun worry I also newbie...

Sifus what can you recommend for WC parts with a Budget of 1K...(Just wanna WC Proc) my proc is i52500K.

TY

get a nice wc single loop set from clawhammer or @ garage sale..there is 1k set there..

ur question pretty general..wc setup do need to consider the casing..and short plan on how and where u want to mount the setup..

Casing Cosmos II, plan to mount rad inside...I prefer a setup that can expand ie no nid buy new pump if I wan WC other things like GC...

Thanks.

Just to share cooling performance of the stock HD7970 Tri-fire on EK FC7970 cooled by Feser480 rad + 8x GT



GPU1: idle 38C load 53C
GPU2: idle 35C load 47C
GPU3: idle 35C load 45C

8x GT rpm ??

bad news
my lil bro play bf3 on max setting
i left one of the barb (gpu loop) on the bay res un-clamped.
the rad didnt get enough cool air since the case's bottom and the table too close ,less than 1cm gap.
the coolant heat up till all the fittings became hot(really hot) and the tube which left un-clamped expand due to excessive heat and leaked.
all 4 hdds ( 4tb ) were soaked with the coolant.
what a terrible way of killing the hdds.

*my lil bro palying game in dark and using headphone.
i think my 'wife' lost lot of blood.

Sorry for your misfortune. Compression fittings all the way. All the money saved from using barbs would now cost significantly more (4 x 1tb = RM1500 almost)

i only used 2 barbs for each loop since i cant get my hand /finger inside the 5.25 bay to tight the comp ring
but i think if the loop doesnt leaked the gpus will dead instead hahaha

That's true, it was sort of "lucky" that it leaked from the bay. Better get it fixed ASAP.

its time to use cylinder reservoir dual loop.

This One
LIKE

Done
but the idle temp still high
bit lower b4 leaked temp

45 degree idle
now max 41
average 38-39
wait till it bleed properly i ll stress it
anyway the ek blood red changed to dark purple after the water temp increased

Your idle temperature is quite high. Are you in an AC room? What tubings are you using?

Do Cyntrix Tech carry, EKWB - VGA Supreme HF Bridge Edition - Acetal Copper ... ?

or deal with APES straight ? Lol...

non ac
ceiling fan only
2 gpus in 1 loop
not OCing.

Yeah if you use 1/2" barb with smaller ID tubing similar to MDPC then it is harder for it to soften up and come off. BUT

1. Plugging the tubing is a pain
2. Getting the tubing in with the perfect tension/bend is a pain
3. Removing the tubing/fitting is impossible without cutting it off and splitting the tubing in half.

Compression is preferred
