Spec new watercooling

[[Death]]

Morning all, been battleing algae inside my loop now for about 8 months, no matter how much biocide / silver / cleaning rads / cpu block, it keeps coming back.

so time for a complete revamp, not a fan of this d5 photon anyway as its an air trap on top of the pump and its awful to bleed!.

So spec me a new compete watercooling system, its for a 5960x on a Asus rampage v extreme. my 1080ti evga will arrive today so will need blocks and fittings for that too.

All of what you spec me has to fit in an entho primo with an E-atx mobo (cant use the res stand off).

total amount of cash about £650 give or take a few ££.

Many thanks

Try this :

EDIT - Noticed i've put the wrong GPU block in the spec - Make sure you go for the specific EVGA block and backplate

480 rad in the roof / Pump bracket for mounting onto a 120mm fan as you mentioned the res bracket was blocked / T splitter and ball valve for ease of drainage / Assuming soft tubing.

If you have algae in your loop empty the coolant and refill with water and add a few drops of bleach into the loop. Make sure the loop is totally full (ie bleed all air out of the loop) and run for 24-48 hours and then empty. Replace all tubing and you should be fine. Bleach will kill anything living in a loop and a few drops mixed with coolant will not harm any seals.
