Just starting of with Water

So taken the plunge (pun intended )

Just taken delivery of:

Already have CPU (4960x) and memory

Unfortunately the items came separate and OC have put the fluid into the loop for the CPU cooler (i did ask them not to)

So now i have to either drain the system from the insanely heavy case or simply get another pump/rad for the motherboard system.

Thoughts on either choice?

Drain it and integrate it to the loop. Motherboard blocks and RAM blocks dont add noticeable heat to the loop and i cant imagine any advantages of them being in a separate loop. RAM and motherboard blocks are mostly aesthetic.

Thanks, have ordered the connectors but really could do with some right angle ones just to connect the motherboard parts together as the run is short between them, for some reason cant find them on the OC site

Make sure that your typing 90 degreee fittings and not right angle, otherwise you wont get any results.

Go for rotary fittings,as they will make life WAY easier.

If you are using EK blocks, Use a 10mm extender to get VRM blocks level with CPU blocks and 20mm +10mm or three 10mm extenders to level the CPU blocks and RAM blocks.
