Black Ice Extreme radiator, gutted 120mm as a shroud, SlitEdge block (suffered horrific galvanic corrosion) and a pump/res that I can't remember the name of.
We have come rather a long way in fifteen years!

Fractal Design Define S
Titan X - full cover EK plus back plate
1070 - full cover EK
Swiftech MCP350 with XSPC reservoir
Alphacool 280 ST30 Crossflow
Alphacool 280 ST30
EK Duraclear
EK Cryofuel
No-name Chinese CPU block
Barrow fittings
One of the principles was to have the shortest tube runs and I think I managed that.
The system is only used for Folding@Home so does run at very high load on those GPU but their temps are both under 50C.

DDC with XSPC Reservoir
MSI Seahawk 1070 with EK fullcover (full load for Folding@Home @2075MHz at 37C)
No-name Chinese waterblock from wish.com cooling a 2600K
Two Alphacool 240mm rads. Front one is attached to front 140mm case fan with a 140mm/120mm converter.
16/10mm Mayhems with XSPC compression fittings.
Phanteks P600S
Front rad is 420mm UT60
Top rad is 280mm Crossflow
1070 with EK 1080 block and TitanX with EK TitanX block
CPU is a G4400 with a Chinese no-name $15 block
System is designed purely for Folding@Home which is why its GPU's massively outpower its CPU which exists only to feed data to the GPU's.
I think I may have beaten my own record for the least tubing ever. The top two rads join like this:
Used only for folding, two MSI Seahawk GTX1070, a 280, a 240 and a Barrow or Bykski (can't remember which) block all in a white P600S. It hides behind my TV so I rarely even look at it.
A Define S with a modded mesh front, a 60mm thick 360, 1070FE with EK Fullcover block, a D5 with Barrow reservoir, Barrow block, EZDIY-FAB fans (as recommended by Jayztwocents).
motherboard replaced in this and now on the next page

not a thread for chat, gents.

apparently makes only 2c difference and I'm not pushing the cpu at all. maybe some time if I have some spare fittings and the means to make the necessary tight turns...
they strobe so not both are always lit. just how the pic showed it.

The first pic is in the first post of this thread I think
This is a gallery thread, please start a new thread for any questions.
Metallic tape was often used to attach fans to radiators if the radiator was non-standard which many weren't. The image below is connecting a 120mm fan via a tin shroud to a Vauxhall heatercore. Metal tape to hold the three things together.
This also features a T-piece reservoir/filling tube, an Eheim 1250 pond pump and the grand-daddy of all modern water blocks, an original Cathar Little River Whitewater.
Now that you have all these temperature sensors, can you comment on the variance around the loop?
please start a new thread. this is for pictures not discussion.
Please keep this thread for pictures
I get to update my thread!
Phanteks P500A. Phanteks M25-140 fans on the outside of the front connected with fan screws from the inside, then 360 60mm rad connected to the case with screws passed through the blades of the 140s on the front. Had to mod the front panel to fit 3 140s but it was just a matter of breaking off some plastic.
GPU is an Asus Dual OC 4070 Super with a Bykski 4070 TUF fullcover block which fortunately fits on the new super cards. 4070 is on 110% with a 50MHz and 1000MHz core and ram overclocks.
CPU block is an old EK on a 7700K on a Maximus IX Formula. CPU is on a 5GHz OC.
Roof rad is an old 240. roof and rear fans are ancient EZDIY-FAB 120s.
Computer is only used for internet use but gpu is running Folding@Home 24/7.
As I am in Thailand, my ambient is a little toasty. It's currently 23:10 and my room ambient is around 30c. GPU at full load is between 50-55c. CPU is only running one core for the Folding@Home so chugging along at a similar 50-55c.
