What to do with my GPU; Titan, 690, 670/680 sli or wait...

[Kaapstad]

Ek are the only blocks i've seen, i already have various fittings i think will work but might need to get some specific sli fittings if the space is too tight

Will you be posting pics of the project

I may w/c my Titans in the next few months but know very little about w/c gpu setups so will be following what others do to see how its done.

You have the dual D5 pump?

Yes

 

[Gregster]

Yes

You will have enough pump power to cope with 4 GPU's under water. I would look to add an external Phoyba1080 rad as well. I notice with 2 GPU's under water and a 3930K, I have to turn the fans up for prolonged gaming and an extra 2 GPU's would soon start to heat the water up.

I can't link because of competitors but I am thinking of going for one of these at some stage this year and using koolance quick disconects for easy case moving.

Guys please RTM offending posts as if you reply you'll likely get swept up in the clean up and might find yourself suspended as well.

@gregster why does everyone have it in for you? I think your a great guy here on the forums and help peeps when ever you can.

I'm not convicted that 'everyone' is an accurate description. More like one or two people.

I think what you say is the way to go with the external rad, I have looked at the koolance quick disconnects in the past but had a bit of trouble working out which ones go with which tubing.

You mentioned me using a twin d5 setup, the way this came about was I noticed if you buy it as listed below it is very poor value.

But if you buy it as part of this kit it is very good value.

You are only paying £140 for all the other bits.

That was a good call. I have no fans running at all in my computer except for the intake and exhaust. All I can hear is the pump (which is on ~1.5) and this is sweet for just the CPU.

I am thinking of going for a seperate loop for the GPU's but not 100% on this yet but if I do, I will be using an external rad like that Phoyba.

I use the same twin D5 pumps in both my x79 rigs, in one I cool the mobo and CPU, in the other I cool just the CPU.

Just by adding the mobo cooling to the CPU the flow rate seems to be cut in half (I can only check this visually).

So yes separate loops would be better.

if you've done a CPU then it's basically the same concept, just a bit bigger... I prefer serial setups so you just keep chaining the "out" port of one block to the "in" port of the next one... although EK GPU blocks are non-direction specific so that helps keep the routing simple

I'll take some pics when I do mine and trust them to you

Edit - reopening - I don't need to remind people that bickering on the forums of this nature won't be tolerated.

If this continues. I am going to ban you for 3 weeks. No questions will be asked, you know who you are. You have been warned many of times, but this "fanboy" behaviour and stupid arguments in the graphics card section is becoming just a waste of time for moderators.

After the 3 weeks once you have been banned, if it continues we will remove your graphics card section access so you cannot post here.

So in summary, stop causing trouble and stop bickering against other members on the forum. Thank you.

Might I ask to save confusion that you could perhaps email the person in question regarding this rather than leaving a non specific warning on a thread which said person may or may not read.

It just seems a little bit off after Paul has already dealt with it by cleaning the thread up etc.

There are some people who are doing it consistently across the graphics card section in different threads, and Paul has worked very hard to keep things under control however some users seem to be ignoring him or just making a joke out of it and continuing to do it. I am not going to email every single one, as there is a few people here doing it, as this will waste my time, these people have been emailing already and will know who they are.

There is no need for it anyway, so if you do not do it, then you have nothing to worry about, and you will not be banned.

Ahhh, so "you" was being used as the plural form as opposed to just singular. Makes more sense as to why you left the warning in the thread now. Thanks .

I know Paul has been keeping a very close eye on the situation here but unfortunately sometimes wires have been crossed and high level moderation has taken place which has resulted in mass infractions/suspensions - inevitably some of which were misplaced - which I know has then turned at least 4-5 people away from buying at OcUK. This is a problem with a high level approach... there is collateral which will put peoples noses out of joint.

Sorry, not sure if this post crosses the line on acceptability or not. Feel free to edit if it is.

It would scare more potential customers coming in to read treads like these and seeing the amount of trolling and bullying goes on. We all moderate to the rules and level that's expected of us by the forum owners.

I think this thread has run it's ground now anyway..
