newls1 Posted March 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Little more progress.... UV Lime Green is CPU loop, UV Blue is GPU loop Still waiting for my 2 other fans to show up for push / pull setup on GPU loops rad on bottom floor of case, waiting for my LED lights for both bay res's to make the colors "POP" more.I love the outcome so far. In all honesty i feel its coming out better then i thought. Nice amount of room to work with inside the case and after i wire up everything and do some cable management, should be nearly complete. Thanks guys and please let me know what you all think so far I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 why use the big rad for the cpu only when it doesnt create anywhere near the amount of heat that both those cards do?the cards could use that extra radiator space.My cpu is 220watts stock, pushing 300watts easily with this overclock, and my temps are fine with a 240 rad, I cant see an intel throwing off anywhere near as much heat.

newls1 Posted March 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 im happy with the way it is. CPU stays extra chilly, and GPUs will be just perfect. *EDIT* Rad is also 50mm thick and double row, double pass too.. perfect for the gpus I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newls1 Posted March 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Got my fans in push / pull finally on the GPU's rad (The 240) PC is so quiet, its amazing. Best build so far that i've enjoyed the most. I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newls1 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 latest update.... removed the 240mm rad and bought a second EK 140x3 rad for the gpus, and mounted it up top where the cpu rad is, so everything is symmetrical. It is also setup in push / pull. GPU temps dropped on average 2-3c loaded with this rad. pics coming...... i painted the EK rads a "hammer silver" looks great! Next update will be with 2 AMD Fury X cards in Crossfire with EK waterblocks ​ ​ ​ I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainStryke Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Should help a lot when overclocking, those i7 5800/5900 series processors get really warm. I've seen a lot of guys taking the i7 5960X into 1.45v and having quite a bit of trouble maintaining temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kade Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Backing up to the first post. I'm surprised you got both of those PowerColor cards to fit.

I've seen a lot of guys taking the i7 5960X into 1.45v and having quite a bit of trouble maintaining temps. my update did not affect my cpu loop. however my 5820k is @ 4.5GHz @ 1.296v and Cache speed is @ 4.25GHz @ 1.285v and my DDR4 is @ 3215MHz @ 1.32vdimm Cpu temp in a 78f degree room in this summer heat here in GA is 71c that is 100% loaded. CPU temps dont climb out of the 40's while gaming. I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
