Optimus Foundation and SigV2 verses EK Magnitude cpu water blocks

Hi,
Looks can be deceiving
Looking cool and cooling a cpu/... are two different things
Thermally velocity is low on the list even though this list is a weird way to evaluate thermal efficiency by using averages seeing if you get a better idle temp it messes up everything
Max temps are best for judging which blocks cool best idle is silly to go by that in anyway.

+1C for D-RGB is OK with me.

Are you draining your loop to test each block? That's a lot of work.

Hi,
I was but finally got some koolance quick disconnects which saves a bunch of time :)
Direct from kooolance website about 26.00 a pair two pairs minimum to actually do two lines

Amazon 10.00 more a pair.
Koolance QD3-MS10X16-BK
Koolance QD3-FS10X16-BK
Got four more pairs recently for the mora 360 and will have a couple spares maybe for x99.. system someday.

Yeah they look handy if your always swapping stuff out. I rebuilt my loop last week and it took 10 hours. That included remounting the GPU to the water-block.

Hi,
Yeah getting air out of water blocks is easy
Getting all the air out of radiators is another story

Saw a 750D corsair on craigslist for 95.00 not bad but on the other side of town.

I'm waiting for new modern super towers to come out but no one is doing any. I have my eye on the Phanteks Enthoo Pro ll revealed at CES 2020 which may launch this month. If your OK with an older style chassis the 750D is a big super tower.

Hi,
Modmymods soft tubing out for delivery today
Might actually get this mora... up and cooling tonight/ tomorrow

I've had my eye on a test bench on modmymods too all but three left in stock.

Mora = have you got enough fans though?
