Or you could, you know, play with the PBO settings. I had no problems cooling my 5800X with Dark Rock 4 non-pro.
Yes, that one. Curve optimizer and Platform Thermal control. Not my first rodeo

Your system reminds me of a build I did close to 10 years ago. Pretty sure it was a X58 OC Gigabyte mobo with i7 990x and 290 xfire
Thanks. I have rerouted the tubing since that photo. Now it goes PUMP>CPU>120rad>GPU>Optane>360rad>RESV.>back to pump. Not necessarily ideal, but had the cleanest look. Ill post some pics later today.

So my gpu (1060 OC) was hitting 90C on the hotspot after remounting the block twice. No blockages in block. I removed the GPU for now and carefully remounted with new bolts and nuts. Hopefully I can start OCing it again. In any case, here it is sans GPU. OC' the cpu to 4.9ghz all core and running PCMark 10 now.

I like the push-pul setup on the AIO. Isn't the there a magnetic cap on the pump block that can be rotated? I know there is on the Frozen Prism.
That's a good question, I pulled on it and nothing happened :D

Maybe I am missing something :confused:

Looks so wrong when the logo is upside down :cry: the same goes every time when I see an older PC with an Intel stock cooler which has the logo upside down. :laugh:

I know.. but it really doesn't bother me that much, mostly because I cant read it from where I sit (need glasses) and it performs pretty well.. I can let it slide :D

ShrekOC had a good point above, that should have a magnetic cover which could be rotated. Doesn't some AIOs have that feature?

Some directed soft lighting and lower angle (so we can see the hardware) will help your photos. You can adjust after in post (photoshop or whatever you like to use).

They were pictures of the finished build and case. I usually don't really see the parts because I don't often look in the side panel.
Yesterday I took some pictures of the parts:








Yesterday I connected the fractal design Dynamic GP-14 fan. My CPU temperatures were very good with one intake fan.
But the GPU gets quite warm in the summer in synthetic tests that load the GPU at 100%.

ARCTIC F14 = 74 cfm | 126 m³/h
fractal design Dynamic GP-14 = 68.4 CFM

If I hold my hand behind the ARCTIC F14, it seems to move at least 2x more air than the fractal design 140 mm fan.

It might be an idea for fractal design to have their fans draw less power and try to get more air displacement.
They shouldn't include a low quality fan. Or maybe they can work with a company that has more expertise in this.

Hardware: Intel 12700KF (stock) -- G.SKILL RIPJAWS @3600 CL18 (stock) -- Sapphire RX 7600 -- ASRock B760M-ITX/D4 WiFi -- fractal design DEFINE NANO S -- bequiet! SYSTEM POWER 10 550W -- DeepCool AG500BK ARGB -- EVO 850 500GB

On air for a while. I'll go back to watercooling when I get more stuff as my loop was pretty meh.

I use an (old) GRUNDIG CDP 410 portable CD player to play my old CD collections. I have this CD player from 2001. I got it as a gift on the day of the September 11 attacks.
But despite its age, it plays with better sound quality than many new CD players.

This is how this CD player sounds on F&D speakers that I bought new for 69 EUR.

New tech isn't always better. I'm thinking of getting a cd player as well since I've burned some albums just because I have empty cds lying around.

Of course I could just play music from my PC when I play PS2 for example, but playing cds from a cd player is way more nostalgic.
