Delivery expected tomorrow so we'll have a play then, shame its going to be another late one.Yeah I guess the 3090 is a beast for sure haha!
That'd be good if like you say achieve the same or lower temps with lower fan speed! Look forward to seeing the results
lol!

My last rework took me to 3am and i had work at 8am
Oh no i've had my 3090 for about 3 weeks now lol, waterblocked it within 2 weeks and keep on progressing
. I got it on launch day It's never really worth it is it, lets be honest we do this because we want a fancy pc with all the bangs and whistles and its a bonus it performs well/better and does everything you want and more.Haha all part of the game!
Not sure if you saw my post on the thread called 'Is it worth the hassle to water cool', but I have pretty much chosen and got everything in my basket that I want for my first custom loop build (including a O11 XL is my newly purchased 500dx won't cut it).
I have till 5pm to order to get everything tomorrow lol... do I or don't I ...hmm. It's costing more than the 3080 I pre ordered lol, and it doesn't even include a GPU block as obviously haven't got the new card yet or a second rad for it. Opted for 1 pump/reservoir, the Kinetic FLT D5 pump 240... was debating whether to get the 360 but figured it wouldn't be necessary, won't have much clearance at the bottom being the fact I'd be vertically mounting it.
Do I bite the bullet and order? lol

I'd say go for it, you're only going to come back to it again and do the same thing. Don't spend too much time thinking about it, just do it and enjoy it i say. The fun part is building it, then the enjoyment comes after when you get to sit back and admire your creation.
Well done! That's the spirit haha! Now you got a full weekend of fun ahead of you and something to look forward to as well.Order placed! An itch needs scratching

Patience mate, all you gotta do is be very patient and take your time with it. Whatever you do, don't rush it, that's when easy mistakes happen.
Haha glad i could help im some wayIndeed, thanks to you and your build which elicited the itch to want to do this!
It’ll just be the CPU that’ll be water cooled for the time being, due to the fact that the tuf oc 3080 I’ve pre ordered will know doubt be with me next year haha. I did think about ordering a block for my 1080ti but that would be wasting money. Patience!
At least I’ll get some practice in, gone for soft tubing to start with anyway, end goal will be hard tubing.
, don't know whether im good or bad influence lol.
do post pics
ive been enjoying reading all the project threads!

Yeah we'd be lucky to see 3080's before christmas tbh.. i've still got a 3080 on preorder with ocuk lol! Im in the queue at 711, won't be getting it till next year i think but i got this 3090 to last me anyway so no rush. Might even see what AMD brings to the table
Looks like you might need a proper project thread when you get all your bits together
Give it a go, will be interesting.Definitely bad influence on the bank account! haha
I may start a project thread, if I feel it's worthy enough lol
