Just a heads up for people wanting to do custom loops, you can spend a ton of cash on fittings. I didn't really plan my tubing very well when I did my first hard tubed acrylic build and probably spent over 200 bucks on fittings. I had a lot of components but still even with the bare minimum it adds up.

Well after just over five years of service my loop sprung a leak at a fitting and fried my motherboard. After taking it apart I was actually really surprised at how much the minor vibrations from the pump and fans loosened up fitting and screws. I guess when I do my annual flush and fluid replacement I need to tighten everything up.

I think I want to redo my build once I get my hands on a 3080 for no good reason other than boredom. Any suggestions for a case that can handle a pair of 360 radiators? Cost isn’t a huge concern but I’d rather be in the lower hundreds and not the higher hundreds.

ilkhan posted:Lots of cases can handle dual 360s. The go to is the loan li O11D, but there are good alternatives. I'm partial to fractal design cases, but not everyone is. Yeah the Lian Li looked OK. I want to try and use a distribution block with integrated pump to reduce tubing bends and EK makes one for that case. My D5 is like 11 years old so it's probably time for a replacement. Thanks for the suggestion.
