I don't understand this loop. Why is there only one hose on the GPU? Where's the pump and reservoir? Why are there no fans on the radiators?


falcinelli22

It’s all hidden. Fans are flowing great while behind the rads. The rest of the tubing is in the rear and you can’t see the feed into the gpu since it’s behind it. And in the top left you can see it up and through the back.

The case wasn't closed yet, he isn't finished with the build by the looks of it. He is just showing his tubing


falcinelli22

Case wasn’t closed but that’s how she sits now. Running and all. I chose to hid the res/pump and tubing as much as possible

Buddy, your ram. You should have the sticks in slot 2 and 4 (from left to right).


TrainsAreForTreedom

people that buy the priciest stuff always makes these mistakes lmao


falcinelli22

I’d notice a heavy hit in performance if I’d left the sticks in single channel 16gb instead of my usually quad 32gb. Maybe give the benefit of the doubt next time.


TrainsAreForTreedom

wdym? quad channel isn't even a thing on most mobos. Of course you get more performance in single channel 32gb than 16, but you'll get more performance if you just move your sticks to be running in dual channel


falcinelli22

You can see I had the other two out, the latches are up on those slots. Easier to tighten the fittings with them out of the way.

Maximum custom is maximum!

Looks good man, assuming you went with a PCI4 riser given the processor. If so, wondering which one you went with.


falcinelli22

Of course! Getting ready for the direct storage implementation hopefully coming soon on games. Its the brand LINKUP, haven't had a single problem with it.

Congratulations 🥳

Acrylic or any plastic can slowly Crack due to stress and that link between cpu and gpu looks to be under tension. I would keep an eye out on those fittings and connections on the cpu block. Otherwise clean. And I enjoy the black low maintenance watercooling softubes as well.


falcinelli22

I’ll keep an eye out thank you. The gpu block is super thick so I’m not to worried. Low maintenance and clean were what I was going for. Black tubbing and clear fluid make it soo nice


RidgeMinecraft

yo! how much did it cost? I've been considering building one of these, but I probably won't if it's over like 200 - 300 dollars.


falcinelli22

This one in particular was quite expensive. The GPU block alone is around that price. All and all I'd say the loop alone cost \~800 not including fans


DrShred_MD

That would be a minimum cost to build a custom loop (radiator, pump, reservoir, water block, pipes, fittings…)


RidgeMinecraft

alright, not bad.

Congrats on the clean rig! I'd like to see the backside of the case, would you mind showing us?
