OCrookie Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 just finished putting this watercooling system back together with the new stuff there is a total of seven blocks in this setup and it looks just like a plate of spaghetti thought it would be fun to show you all how it looks LOL before and after Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sYstEmATiC Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 WOW thats one hell of a loop. Nice. What temps are you getting having all 7 blocks on the same loop? Thats a really nice (expensive) setup there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardnrg Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Why does your primary graphics card block have FOUR barbs on it? Surely it should only have one inlet barb and one outlet barb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardnrg Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 that's what you would *assume* the intention is, but the only graphics block flow design in ANY gpu block (that I have seen) is SINGLE inlet, SINGLE outlet... the purpose of having barb threads tapped on each side is that you can decide which side is going to be the barb, and the other is blocked... the way the graphics blocks are set up now, the primary graphics card would only get a *tiny* amount of flow, as it is connected in parallel, with the majority of the flow going straight from the top to the bottom without going through the block that is, unless somehow the block is some sort of double channeled block that has TWO pairs of inlets and outlets... the likelihood of this is extremely low Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verran Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 the way the graphics blocks are set up now, the primary graphics card would only get a *tiny* amount of flow, as it is connected in parallel, with the majority of the flow going straight from the top to the bottom without going through the block Nrg makes a really good point here. How are the temps on that top video card? It would seem that it's connected in parallel and probably getting very little flow. You should probably just be using one upward facing barb and one downward facing barb on that top card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 that is, unless somehow the block is some sort of double channeled block that has TWO pairs of inlets and outlets... the likelihood of this is extremely low I was kinda thinking that's what it was but obviously I don't know much about water setups.
