Watercooled Case Gallery

Someone here, I think it was one of the dons, did a big project with (again I think) a TJ07 and put his gpus in parallel and confirmed it worked fine for temps.

I agree using a logical thought process it doesn't look like it should work but I believe it does.

To be fair, GPUs react very very well the watercooling, the temps tumble even with rubbish blocks or small rads.

I guess it depends on the resistance of the blocks and the pump curve.

This link seams to make the most sence, in suggesting actual testing the flow by timed output in to a container. http://wc101.com/articles/vs/?page=vs
If the links does not work just, google series and parallel flow

The thing is, the way it's set up is nothing like running in parallel. It's a case of coolant comes in straight across the top and straight back out the outlet. At least if it was in parallel there would be a Y piece splitting the loop in two using the inlet/outlet properly as shown in the piccies above before going back to another Y piece into a single line again. The way DanM54 has it set up, it just should'nt logically work. Inlets and outlets on full cover blocks should be staggered so that the coolant does flow through the whole block.

He is using the water block as a splitter, it's the same effect.
The resistance of the CPU block causes a back pressure, that forces part of the flow down the other path(gpu).

Think of it like two checkout ques at Asda, people try to get through as quick as possible, so choose the fastest or shortest que.
 
glad other black makers are doing backplates for cards as well now, makes things look much neater over all and helps stop the cards from titlting at the ends some times

Thought id add mine

nothing special :) straight out of the Box from OC :D

Want to have a tinker with it at some point over the next few weeks, not really sure what the big black thing is meant to do thats covering the pump apart from some sort of protection but from what ?

Don't worry about that, when I mention water-cooled everyone thinks im crazy
:eek:

Nice system you have there :cool:

Haha. Exactly the same for me. Get comments like, "how can you put water on electronic things!? Won't that break them"... Trying to respond without looking like a massive geek is the hard bit :p
