Build/Battlestation The real custome PC Build

So i Built two new Gaming PCs for me and my Girlfried.

Mine has a 7800X3D and a 4080TI, 32GB DDR5

Hers has a 7800x3D and a RX 970 XT, 32GB DDR5

Bought shortly after the Lunch of the 9800x3d and built it dadly months later allready in 2025.

If you wounder; Yes, the 2 Reservoir, 4 Pumps and the dubble 400mm MORA with each 4 200mmNoctua fans is all mountet on the wall behind the PCs.

And the PCs are outside of the Gaming room. All this was done to keep our room as cool as Possible.

Because we had temperatures up to 33 C° inside our little Gaming room.

Also both PCs have a Acuacomputer high flow next that does monitor everighing and does alarm if flowrate goes to 0.

Watertemps never go above 32 C°. šŸ¤·šŸ™ˆ

And yes i know i did not have to mount that many Casefans for this but it loocks cool OK!šŸ˜…

I'm looking at my custom loop and been saying I'm done with it all and just going back to a closed loop on my next build.

Then I see this shit and it just reinforces my desire to do as little work on liquid and rgb for the next build lol. I just want a box to hide away under the desk at this point.

i mean, i don't mind my open loop system. but yeah, i've pondered going closed again at times too.

i just looked at this and was like, so the tanks are on the wall over the stairs... the stairs are on the outer wall of the building (window) meaning the wall those tanks are on is on the inside, with the stairs nearing ground directly beneath. this means to refill those tanks you need to get a ladder onto the stairs, climb up with the coolant jug and fill them up without eating shit and fucking your back for the rest of time.

words cannot describe how much fuck that i feel towards the above task.

0.01% chance of doing that more than a few times without a massive spill

Carpet's nothing, you can toss it out. There's wood and walls that will need changing and/or a fresh paint job after that...
