    Hi,
    Interesting
    Water flow mainly might give less temp spikes since water flow goes across cooling fins thus more flow can help maintain a temp easier than pure water temperature

    Read back a little I agree rad volume will help water temperature more than fan or water speed or reservoir size you're already using a bigger reservoir than I am in my x99 rig :)

    I think I got it dialed in as best as I can. If the bios was able to detect GPU temps and control fans off that, that would be awesome! Lol

    Thanks for the help guys!

    Hi,
    Having the gpu first in line from the pump has it's draw backs
    It pipes better
    I'm surprised by the gpu temps frankly it should be closer to 40c not into the mid 50c+ range :/

    yea, this chip just runs hot! idk. even when it was on the AIO cooler it got up to 55c+ range sometimes seeing 60C during hours of pubg. on the stock air cooler, temps were in excess of 80C+ on the stock fan curve. i do have a rad right after the gpu and before the CPU.

    Hi,
    I've read many times items arrangement doesn't matter water temp equalizes
    The top rad you have is a slim so not much of any restrictions on it for water flow.

    I like to cool the hottest item first from pump and it's always the cpu lol that is hottest

    Hmmmm
    After about an hour of assassin's Creed Odyssey, GPU temps settled at 47c and CPU was in the 50c range average. That's way better than the previous pump, so I'm going to call it quits for now. Cooling seems as good as it's going to get while still maintaining low noise and fan speeds at idle.

    Hi,
    That is a main perk with water cooling less noise :)

    Just bought my motherboard! So that means my PC is now finally complete. Unless I need a bigger PSU, I'm done with it for the year and next year ��. Time to focus on saving for a car next year. I'll post pics in the show PC thread when I get it all together ��
