First time loop :)

Evening all.

I was going wait 2 month to get a h110i but i when out and got a alphacool complete watercooling kit instead he he this is my first ever custom loop

feedback welcome.

Here the kit

Here the Fluid

The hardiest part was putting the red and fans in the case.

i fulled up the Reservoir and bleed the loop

YESSS i did not have a leak
i plug everything back in

My stock i7 ideal temps with my room about 19c

Underload

Thanks for reading any feedback or tips will be greatly appreciated.

do my temps look right

Looks a bit high to me. You sure you got all the air out the rad? How noisey is it?

If you shake/tilt the case do you get more bubbles?

If your CPU is an 4790k,those temps are fine your using prime,which is stupidly warm and noway a realistic workload.Note how it draws 130w through the cpu,thats insane,will never get close to that in day to day usage.

Try Realbench,far more realistic workload,will prob be in the low 50's

Temps are fine.

Would need to know exact CPU, clock speed and volts before we gave you the full 'Okay' but they are within accepable temps for full 100% load test.

Yeah prime is an unrealistic gauge for everyday temps, heck my i7 4820k overclocked to 4.5 and with 2 gtx 980 only hits 63 after hours on bf4

I well use realbench and we'll post clock speed and that tonight when I finish work

thanks for help

Seems pretty solid for your v core/frequency in prime.

Your fine m8 ,prime pushes your CPU further than realistic day to day(gaming/encoding ect) workloads will.Plenty of room to overclock if you want too.
