as promised

Started out with the pump and res assembly

Damn thing leaked everywhere twice on me - go figure the O ring that was provided by danger den was too thin and the pump back was not hitting the rear cap making it leak everywhere, makes you wonder why they didn't provide spacers to push the pump up against the face

will have some more updates later, stay tuned.

That looks a LOT better then what you had it yesterday. Cable management is a PITA, but you'll love the look of the system afterwards.

Arrakis: I gotta look at my Monsoon over again.. I wasn't able to do the power cable of the pump in one of the wholes.. I had to take a part the wires and do it one on each side...
If the pump leaked on you.. I might want to try mine tonight and see if it'll do the same for myself.. But, I am using Bitpower D5 o-ring and not what they supplied..

DD provides two O rings with the res, one thats suppose to be "safe" and the other for "extreme" performance, both of them from my experience are too thin unless you put a shim behind the pump to press up against the cap on the back of the pump housing.

Arrakis: you use a HELL of a lot of thermal goop :O

it looks like a lot in the picture but it really isn't i used that method on the frio and when i took it off it spread nicely but didnt manage to get the full ihs, the corners were still bear

EDIT:

heres another teaser until' tomorrow, system is currently beading out all the air from the loop

HammerON · Mar 29, 2011

I am not sure about how you have the SLI water connectors installed...
It seems as though the water will just travel down from the inlet to the bottom card. It may fill the block up on the bottom and then allow the two top cards water blocks to fill up.
I have always used one SLI water connector on the opposite side of the inlet to the second card and then on the opposite side is the outlet. Then again I have never water cooled three cards...

mlee49 · Mar 29, 2011

I personally use series connections and cool card 1 -> card 2 -> card 3 -> rest of loop.

Not a big fan of the parallel connections.

Arrakis9 · Mar 30, 2011

It seems to be working well actually, all 3 cards are dead cold on the back of the gpu and the only thing that is "warm" on all 3 cards is the vrm area. haven't gotten a chance to boot it into windows yet and check the temps but that should come in a couple of days. for now sitting idle in the bios everything is running very cool.

HammerON · Mar 30, 2011

Sounds like it is working fine then

Here is how I have always set-up my dual cards:

Must you make me jealous with that awesomeness setup

Velvet Wafer · Mar 30, 2011

The way Arrakis did it, is more efficient... parallel flow will lower the load on the pump, and increase overall head pressure, which is most benefitful for jet impingement type blocks

Lurked for a while, finally posting for the first time, but here's some pics of what i've been through the past couple of days on my new build.

Still have yet to put in the RAM since it won't be here till tomorrow (ordered the wrong ones in the first pic had to send them back) and then i'll also put on the 2 fans on the Hyper 212+. Wished I had my normal camera during this as my Droid can't take pictures worth jack.

Looks good, man. Gonna be great to see what you're able to do with it in terms of cable management.
