Hi All,
I've currently got a small loop set up on 9590FX out of equipment i was given a few years back from a feind (never used), this was just to get a feel for cooling etc, I'm actually suprised at how will it performs however temps are still far too high for me under load to keep this loop on it and am currently looking to put together a proper loop for this, I'm currently also using an old TT Armor+ for this but am having trouble measuring up rad sizes etc and am unsure if things will actually fit.
Originally i wasnt looking to cool my GFX card however it seems i have a Duff ASUS 280X which artifacts if GPU/VRM temps hit 55+ so it seems i will now also need to put that in the loop too, I guess the questions i need answering are:
Should i be looking at replacing all components due to age?(this is still first time use) Pump is rated 500L/hr peak but im unsure if there is a way to increase/lower this as cpu fan speed always seems to read near 2606 rpm
What measurements do i use for rad size, what sort of clearance do i need for Inlet/Outlet?
Should i be looking at 1 rad or 2 rads, sizes?
Which Brand of components are usually of decent quality?
Should i be looking at introducing a quick disconnect or some sort of T-line to drain?
Any help would be appreciated
