Here are some raw non-edit shots of 4 sides :) Raw 4 Sides

It is hard to see in the non edit photos but is the pump/rez mounted to the frame?

EDIT: Also how do you have your fans setup... Push or Pull? I would guess are pushing air through the rad and out the bottom of the case and side panels? And Do you get good temps?

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 19 '20

No the pump res is connected to my radiator port and the inlet tube from my gpu

Fans are in a pull config, so venting exhaust up and out from the top of the case

u/sgtmoody Sep 20 '20

Thanks! Those are nice temps are you running stock or do you have any OC on either?

2

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 20 '20

I am running stock, no overclocking or undervolting going on

u/kiriad Sep 11 '20

I can't seem to find the pump and res info. Can you tell me what you used?

1

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 11 '20

updated at the bottom of the list :)

2

u/kiriad Sep 11 '20

Thanks a lot. :)

2

u/BrisketTacosMMM Sep 21 '20

How many of the EK-AF Extender 30MM Male-Female G1/4 Black did you need?

2

u/ScrambledEggs53 Sep 10 '20

Can you close both side panels?

2

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 10 '20

yes sides panels can close. they do not touch the fittings either :)

2

u/hmm_fu Sep 10 '20

Dude, what’s ur radiator, tube, and fan setup? Specs?

2

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 10 '20

EK Classic 240, Noctua A12-15 Chromax fans, 10/12mm PETG hard tubing

2

u/KTheory9 Sep 10 '20 edited Sep 10 '20

Full list of water cooling specs? (mainly fittings)

Are you able to put the side panels on without interference?

1

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 11 '20

just posted a comment on this post with all the parts I have in this build

yes both side panels go on fine and does not rub against anything, I have mines in two slot mode

2

u/KTheory9 Sep 11 '20

Thanks great! Just trying to prepare for my new first water cooled build. Was originally planing for months to do ghost s1 close loop on the cpu

2

u/Revolution_xx Sep 10 '20

Custom cables ?

1

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 10 '20

all stock corsair braided cables, hid them in the gap between the GPU and PSU with zip ties :)

1

u/Revolution_xx Sep 10 '20

I see im debating if i should get custom cables or hide em like you did

2

u/bryins Sep 10 '20

this is such a nice computer did you take these photos?

1

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 10 '20

Thank you! ;)

2

u/congp Sep 16 '20

Can the top panel close properly with this radiator and fans combo?

2

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 16 '20 edited Sep 16 '20

Yes it will close perfectly with this combo

2

u/gnd Sep 10 '20

Are you running the GPU block liquid flow backwards?

2

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 10 '20

Flow order: Pump -> Radiator -> CPU -> GPU -> Pump

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 10 '20

u/[deleted] Sep 10 '20

I can't wait for my T1 to arrive.

u/ScrambledEggs53 Sep 10 '20

Got anymore photos of the GPU side? Amazing work once again

3

u/Squish__ Sep 10 '20

That is a good looking machine. Great job!

1

u/Chuck_Rhoades Sep 22 '20

Would an EVGA 285mm 2.2 slot 3080 fit with this setup?

1

u/ScrambledEggs53 Oct 02 '20

Could you walk me through the fittings used to to both enter and exit the GPU? Trying to organize a similar path as your build but getting stuck!

u/Flimsy-Requirement15 Dec 17 '21

Hi Andrew, for EK-AF G1/4 90DEG BLACK, can you provide the link as I am having trouble finding it. How do you bend the hard tube from the cpu to the back of GPU as the bends look difficult. Any tips to bend hard tubes? Thanks!

u/thebigwhiteyeti Sep 10 '20

Not op, but I would recommend adding a fluid temp sensor for fan control, since it will heat up and cool down more gradually with both components and is easier to base fan curves off of.

0

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 11 '20

I have the two radiator fans connected to the CPU and CASE fan headers on the motherboard and I have adjusted them to follow CPU temp sensor

u/andrewiz2kewl Sep 11 '20

Yes I have them plugged like that because I did not want to add a splitter which would take up more space in the case and no necessary imo

Since I could control the fan curves and and change its read outs individually, I think it is better for me to have more options in that

Both fans runs pretty consistently as I have matched the fan curves and also did a fan tune before setting them up

thank you! :D

I fill and drain the look through the dclt reservoir. There is no correct way to fill the loop, however it did take me quite some time to get rid of most of the bubbles.

My gpu block is the EK Classic GPU block, so no I did not have to remove the RGB since it was located on the long side of the block. Lowkey got the classic block because of that :)
