For real?!
You just couldn't wait could you? :p

For real

The best part about it is there is a quick disconnect in the loop just before the res/pump where I can fit the chiller so that the first place the chilled water goes after the pump is the CPU.

The next problem is working out how to use it.:D:)
 
Awesome!
Be careful with how low the water temp gets, you don't want any condensation.

Also, i would advise you somehow attach all of your rad fans to a single switch so you can turn them off when using the chiller.
When using rads with a chiller in theory you're actually going to be warming up the water when chilling below ambient.

This is one of the things I am worried about.

I am not too worried about the rads, where the chiller fits in the loop is after the last of the rads but before the pump/res and then CPU. So in theory the rads can get rid of most of the heat from the GPUs/CPU and the chiller can do the rest. The water will be pretty warm going into the rads after going through the Titans.

I don't think the chiller will be able to cope without the rads, its cooling capacity is 790watts and my rig will be producing about 1300watts. My main aim is to lower the temps going into the CPU.

Ah in that case, given your layout it would be pretty much perfect! You wouldn't need to change a thing!

Yes the plan is to get the rads to do the hard work taking the output from the GPUs (they don't really need a chiller, the highest they get is 41c) and getting the chiller to chill the water for the CPU.
 
Nice score Kaap and 13 points behind Vega in the GFX scores. Shows how consistant these Titans are, unless you hard mod and change the vrm's :D

Here is something to show what I mean about graphics, I have been changing the power leads to my graphics cards (hate the red) and just tested by overclocking the GPUs a little bit +142/+222 but left the CPU on 4.0 and still scored nearly 49k on graphics (holy bottleneck). To get the most out of the Titans it is the poor CPU that has got to work.

I look forward to your feedback on that chiller Kaap. I was put of by assuming it ran all the time and added £90+ on the electric bill.

I am hoping to just run it for benchmarking, with a set of quick disconnects I should be able to take it out of the loop when not in use.

One thing perhaps someone could answer, do chillers have their own pumps or do they rely on what is pumped through them.
 
Same chiller i bought Kaap :D
Not set it up yet though, tiny bit bigger than i thought, so doesn't quite fit where i want it, hopefully get it done by the end of this month.

I bought mine off Cam, and he used a D5 pump, so i'm assuming the chiller itself hasn't got one, as for electricity...wont use that much, depends on how much you're cooling and how cold you want it.

Thanks

Hope yours is up and running soon.:)

I have scored higher than this but the graphics are not as good.

I think the graphics is about as high as I can get it for a CPU clock speed of 5.1ghz. The GPUs will clock a far bit higher but don't score anymore where they are bottlenecking.

I need a chiller fast.:D
