MSI Ventus 2080ti - Watercooling

[ldjg2002]

Hi,

So i have the above GPU but its runs hot - and the fan is like a jet engine, which I seem to see is typical for this card. (this is with a modest 130 core oc)

So basically, the noise is annoying, and id like it to run cooler as well for obvious reasons.

I do have watercooling for the CPU via the block below (I have a resevoir/pump combo that goes along with it.

My radiator is pretty small but has always worked well, so my idea is to loop in the GPU, and add a larger radiator, and a tap to drain it (which is something I should have done in the first place).

As you can probably tell new to this, so im looking for the best way to do it really, any advice would be welcomed, my main concern is getting the right fittings, the block im looking to use is:

Basically, you just need the parts you're adding and that many fittings x2:

Graphics card block (check your card fits - reference PCB?) + 2 fittings

Radiator + 2 fittings

Splitter block if you need one

Ball valve and stop plug

Joiner (male-male) to fit stop plug, alternatively 2 fittings and some tubing

Fitting for draining with (I recommend a soft tube barb and matching tubing, to hang out of the case)

New fluid!

Optional: distilled/DI water to clean/flush loop. You could consider a Mayhems Blitz Kit to clean radiators and loop (separate steps) too...

I make that 5/7 fittings plus the bits.

What pump/res and radiator do you have?
