Hello guys, i decided to fix my noise and temp problems with custom water cooling setup
As i said in description, never did this, i don't know who is good who is bad, and i want to order this on my weekend to be able to try to build something, on forums so many different opinions.
Maybe you can advice some parts? I don't need best of the best, i want to stay in 500-600 gbp
Case Phanteks P600s
CPU: Ryzen 3900x
GPU: Asus 2080ti Dual
If there will be no RGB, it's ok. Silence and space my best friends. Basically main point is reduce size of GPU, to free second slot for hackintosh gpu.
 
I built 2 loops for my 3950x and my 2080ti it cost around £700 though but in games CPU never goes above 50 degrees and you sits in battlefield at 45 degrees.some people say 120 for each component plus a 120 but if overclocking I'd add another 120m rad.if it was me I'd for for either a thick 360 rad and a thick 240 rad if you want really good temps
 
That's the fans set at normal in gigabyte sub software.i can to silent profile performance or full speed.have a look on youtube for JayzTwoCents he explains in videos in depth what you need for a loop and the difference between thin rads and thick rads.well worth the watch.my 2080ti was hitting 82 degrees with ease and fans ramping up were doing my head in.so I decided towatercool.my case is a thermaltake the tower 900 so it's designed for two loops but when fitting the 2080ti the stock cooler and the you die there was at least a 3rd of the die there was no tim on it.shocking to spend £1200 on a dgpu and they couldn't put Tim on correctly
 
It's worth planning out certain things. Which motherboard do you have, and what graphics card for the Hackintosh? The tube fittings on the 2080Ti might get in the way if they're too close to the second graphics card.

As a rough estimate:

£150 pump/reservoir
£80 360mm radiator
£70 240mm radiator
£65 CPU block
£100 graphics card block
£70 fittings and tubing
£25 coolant, tools etc

Looking at £550 or so for average parts, not the cheapest ones. Might need some extra tools if you do hard tubing.

Are you interested in soft or hard tubing?

Thank you
X570 Meg Ace and one of 5700xt, but this not a problem, I can always use vertical mount.
Soft tubing , because I will fail to do hard tubing )))
And pump reservoir better take separate, or like combo unit ?
 
getting a pump reservoir combined is simpler and just better.

The prices quoted are for parts from major manufacturers purchased in the UK. You can get excellent chinese parts for much less if you look around.
 
all aluminium so if you choose to expand the kit make sure you buy the same alustream radiators.

I don't want to rain on your parade but "perform well" is an interesting term and I suspect it will not perform as well as you might like
