Alereon posted:I am, and honestly it was a mistake. Air cooling will always provide better cooling with lower noise levels because heat pipes move heat more effectively than pumped water, without the noise of a pump. Water cooling only makes sense in situations you need to pump the heat to a remote radiator due to space constraints, like in SFF PCs. On the plus side, putting a water cooler on your GPU lets you exhaust heat from the case in a manner similar to a blower, but without the noise. gently caress'n A. Came to post this. gently caress water cooling. Too many failures, not enough benefit.

I hear milk is a good fluid to use for watercooling.

I may/probably need to cool a ASUS ROG Strix RX480 overclocked out the wazoo along with a 6800K at 4.0-4.2Ghz. Any help is appreicated. I am very new to water cooling but handy and was a plumber (a real one) if it helps my build.

VulgarandStupid posted:If any of you were looking to buy an 1080Ti FE to slap a waterblock on, I'm selling mine. It's an EVGA, which has the best warranty service and won't void your warranty for taking off the stock cooler. Just curious, what are you replacing that card with? Vegalol? [edit] oh, bad for watercooling

That is an incredibly easy fix for someone with microsoldering stuff. Any chance you found the resistor you broke off?

Mr Shiny Pants posted:I am probably going to build a ThreadRipper system pretty soon and watercooling has me intrigued. I like a quiet system, my current system ( Mac Pro 5.1 ) is almost inaudible and I really like that. I don't see any problems there. Its a nice 280mm rad.

repiv posted:It's unclear how well current AIOs will work with Threadripper since they were all designed for much smaller chips. The common Asetek design (as used by the X62) doesn't fully cover the dies with its fin stack, and parts of the dies are only contacted by screws. Wow I glossed over that article and thought the cold plate was actually touching the heatspreader. Why the hell is that being listed as compatible?

Jeez thats a lot of work for a lowly 7700k. What kind of overclock did it give you?

Huh, how about that. I never would have guessed although it is obvious when you think about it.

I dunno if anyone saw, but Jays 2 cents figured out that some of the 9000 series CPUs have rounded heat spreaders. Delidded temps are almost the same as lapping.

Combat Pretzel posted:Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3000 CL15 4x8GB. They only work stable at 2833MHz just picking an XMP profile in the BIOS. Haven't investigated why. It's very likely because you have 4 pieces in there. 2 sticks in the furthest slots would probably hit 3000.

Combat Pretzel posted:The Vardars have an annoying whine to them. I ditched them pretty quickly. I went for the A12x25 from Noctua, which is the other extreme (because $$$). Same with the Coolermaster high pressure fans. Incredibly annoying buzz/whine. Ditched em.
