Rtx3090 temps on block

[Purgatory]

I am using the EK Vector Strix block with EK active backplate. as for the pads i just used the same sizes as EK state to use which is a mixture of 1mm, 1.5mm and 2mm so to do the card properly cost a bit as you have to buy 3 different sizes and a few packs of each to have enough for 1 card let alone 2 ... the pads are harder but had no issue with getting the blocks sandwich together , well no more than if trying with the ek pads ... its bloody tight but does 100% fit

Wicked bends on those tubes. I think I'll get a distro plate when I also add my CPU into the loop next year. Looks nice.

Thanks mate , much appreciated

Thanks again , i really want to redo all bends in acrylic rather than petg to give it that finishing touch just not got round to it yet plus i hate draining it with these bends in place ( arms get a good workout turning round a 50kg build many times ) . some don't like distro plate as they seem to think its set in stone with routing which it is to a degree but can still get creative and do many different configurations

If you have a good mount the delta from GPU temp to peak temp for a 3090 should be less than 20c.
On air at 400w I get a delta of 13c, I'm using liquid metal because I couldn't resolve the thermal pump issues with regular tim.
