I spent quite a bit of cash setting up my watercooling loop with Monsoon fittings, and an XSPC bay res w/ d5 pump & EK blocks...
I am annoyed because just over a month in my res has started leaking. The connection between the pump and the res is where it leaks. I've checked the "O" rings etc and it's all fine.
It only leaks when the pump is above 3, however anything lower than that my flow is really bad as I have, 2 RAM blocks, CPU block and Mobo block.
So
I have just purchased 2 Aquacomputer D5's with Aquabus interface, an aquaero5 ;
And I'm looking to replace all of my tubing / fittings with bitspower crystal link and a new res, new case and some more rads.
So!
I'm going to get the new Corsair 900D, install my current 140mm rad, and 240mm rad along with 2 new 480mm rads;
2 new EK titan blocks and build a dual loop system (this time there will be a build log).
Forgive the tldr wall of text:
Here's the question; I kind of like bay reservoirs as my rig tends to be under the desk (also it helps keep the window free of pumps etc.
So I have two options, Bitspower 2x250mm tube reservoirs or a Koolance koolance rp-452x2.
Please consider that I'm going to crystal link both entire visible loop sections.
It's just the XT Aquaero (internal only) and I'm probably going to drop my optical drive as I don't use it. So the res would be the only thing on the front of my PC.
