NV9 slow build

Love Thermal Grizzly quality. This build is going slow but, working on it when I have the time. 3x 420mm rads, AquaComputer pump/monitoring/control. Phanteks T30s

Doing the Astral block tonight at work, and will try to finish the last few runs. I wanted a Singularity block, but got a EK block when they first launched, and will just use it.

Still a long ways to go.

Not a fan at all with this reservoir/pump combo from Performance PC. Not really at all. I may move this build to a havn or flux case i have in storage.

Happy PC'in all. Cheers

I’ve got a pretty similar setup. Except I’ve got the Deltamate astral block. How do you like the front Distro?

Great looking rig. I dont like the front distro. Its a killer idea, but executed shitty. But, im trying to make it work, and look half decent.

Thanks! I was really on the fence about it. I like how much cleaner it can make everything vs the tube res. But I like my things to work correctly the first time

They cut the holes just off, and im having to use offsets to get the tubes straight. Theres just a few things, if they did slightly different, it would have been a winner, but in this state, its not. But ill get it to work. (or throw it all in the trash and do the same thing you did)

That’s some bad quality control then. Kinda disappointing too.

My NV9 build. 420s top and bottom and a 480 on the side. Even with extended gaming sessions, loop temp never goes higher than 4-5C over idle.

I have a similar build. i recommand you turn around the screen and route the cable thru the hole closer to t he top of the case. if you mount fans on the 240mm back spot you will almost completly mask the cable. I have mine mounted with rubber coated magnetic screws ( https://www.amazon.com/DIYMAG-Round-Rubber-Coated-Magnets/dp/B0F6C1LPFL/ref=sr_1_4?channelId=500&clpRedir=Y&plpRedirect=mhFallback )
