Im still trying to figure out why he is dumping all that heat from his GPU on to his CPU. Why isnt it res>pump>rad>cpu>gpu>res?

Yeah I agree GPU should be after CPU cause it gets hotter which should be the last thing before it goes back to the rad to cool off. I dunno why he did it the opposite but I'll be doing CPU then GPU.

And btw it's, Res>Rad>Pump>CPU>GPU>Res. For me at least (cause my res is built into the rad).

You might want to go, pump>res/rad>cpu>gpu>pump. Get the coolest water possible before it hits the block. Your pump drops heat into your loop, so it will raise temps a tiny bit ( 1-3°c) before hitting your blocks. This is a reason Im not a fan of res/rad combos. The pump should sit between the two. Makes the res kinda useless in this situation.

Well actually either way it would start and end at the Res so in that case it would be: Res/Rad>CPU>GPU>Pump>Res/Rad. That would be the best setup as all the heat is peak after the pump then drops right into the Res/Rad to cool off then come back. Thanks for that info though, didn't know pump adds to heat.

Its not a huge amount, but yes it does. Its call heat dump or pump dump. ( depending on whos saying it ). So if you ever come across it in a thread, ( and you will eventually ) you'll know whats being talked about.

I will love to see pictures when its all up and running. You should do a worklog while building it too. Find a camera and go nuts.

I won't be doing the GPU just yet until I get the funds to buy the waterblock. I do have a 7.1 Megapixel camera and I will definitely be taking many many pics in the process (for myself and this thread as well). I will be sure keep everyone up to date. This is going to be a fun little project and I can't wait to receive the kit.

Well, I have all my parts, and they are all just sitting here mocking me. I need a camera to log my work. Thats all that is stopping me. Its painful almost. I just want to put it all together already.

Take your pick

BTW, my friend has the same case as you and wants ideas for watercooling. Take some pics for us please.

Thats awesome of you. +rep. I have a limited amount of money at the moment, so I kinda have to wait anyways. But thanks for taking the time to do that.

Not a problem. Anything to help out. Plus your pics would help me and my friend too so it's a win win.
