whater cooling spec advice

[X3n0]

Hello!, i have posted a few times with no luck!, could someone give me some help on Water cooling my system? with a shopping list or something?


Intel 5960x
Gtx980 ti x2
Rampage V extreme x99
900D case
and i want my ram cooled too!. also i would like to have
maybe 3 loops? for performance and just because it looks awesome!

3 loops is overkill and will get very messy quickly. If you want dual loop then do your gfx cards on one and your cpu / mosfet / ram on the other.

awesome cheers , i was thinking 360 rad on top, push/pull fans cooling cpu as its heavily OC, using the XSPC RayStorm Twin D5 RX360 V3 WaterCooling Kit.

and 2 x 240 rads for the bottom of my case the 900D has plenty of room on both sides as they fold down giving easy access for the rads, and 2 140 fans on each and 2 XSPC D5 Photon 270 Reservoir/Pump Combo.

1 cooling MB an ram and 1 for both gfx!

There is some serious space in my case!
or will this not work :'( ?????

Just not sure what to use for tubing and fittings ect, and what to use to water cool my 980 ti's, EK is the best?

That would work, though can't you fit bigger rads in the bottom of your case? 360 or 480mm?

The photons are a pain to fill btw.

 

[X3n0]

yes i can fit 2 x 360 in the bottom, but i wanted to leave extra space for fitting the photons, i did read that they where hard to fill, would you recommend a different res?

also what tubing/fittings would you recommend?

 

[Glanza]

Unless the photons are on show they would be wasted, I'd go for something else possibly EK.

Tubing and fittings are down to your preference on how 'fat' you want the tubing to look.

I personally use Mayhems 16/10 as I've found that to be the best tubing I've used.

 

[X3n0]

the photons will be place further forward in the case hence the use of the smaller rads for more space, so they will be on show!

i will look into Mayhems 16/10 tubing, can i buy it through OC?
