Since we're showing 0-11 Dynamic XLs, here is mine. Just swapped to the Alphacool block for the 3080ti and the Magnitude block for the 5950x. I'm pretty happy with how it looks now.

JAT

In Jan i'll be getting this plate for my rig. I will probably have to go hard line again. but had a proper disaster with it in the past and destroyed a gtx1080 and a z390-F motherboard. I do really like the o11D XL even though some find them a bit generic now. Still a great case for a good loop.

A plate with a pump would be cool (pun intended). I'll need to check those too myself.

Looks that my DDC is working once again so maybe I'll swap this Eisbaer to custom loop. The Eisbaer can go to my 2nd rig, though it's now in Define XL so I need to swap the rad for a 140mm (a thicc 60mm one) one.

Yikes. And it doesn't even include the pump. AND I'd have to pay import taxes.

I need to look locally for something.

My primary PC at the moment.

I have been thinking about putting a 5000 series 5600X or 5800X here because of the superior gaming performance. My second PC as on specs performs better in games than this one when the RTX 2060 Super is installed there. The Ryzen 5 3600 I have is truly a gem of a chip. Does 4.55 GHz at 1.29V!
Will upgrading to a 5000 series help in gaming?

The plate i want is going to cost about £300

Very nice chip! But yes, with Ryzen we get a little too focused on boost clocks and bench e-peen. Can clock a 3600 or 5600G to the moon and still won't really catch up to a 5600X.

But you should keep that 3600 around! Nice little golden sample to play with.

I switched my top rad fans for corsair LL120's so they match the LL140 on the bottom rad. Does look better imo. i will add an extra link in case the forum is still buggering up pics.

Alright, one more change as my DDC somewhat works again (getting a new one from aquatuning.fi soon). Never done such a clean job with a loop before with the tubing.

 

[Deleted member 24505]

Here's mine with the top fans replaced with LL120's. Just need another LL for the back fan now.

On the front I have two AirGuide 120mms (came with the case), on rad two ML120s and on rear ML120 Pro

I'll also put my GPU under water some day, I just need to macgyver some VRM cooling to it as the VRM heatsink is part of the cooler.

The GPU in mine has a heatsink on it, i reckon the upward airflow from the bottom rad fans is enough. Wanted a full cover, but can't get one now for this 980ti. Looked all over too

I have this: https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-vga-supremacy-acetal-nickel

Worked perfectly with 980, 780 and R9 290, I also have a slot bracket where you can mount one or two 80 or 92mm fans

Mines a crappy generic GPU block, temps are pretty good though, so not gonna bother changing it. Would your VRM be bare without the air cooler on?

Yep, as it's in the stock cooler. I'll check my old cards if I can salvage something from those.

On the other hand, I could order this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32818056669.html

This has the midplate and VRM sink even with the air cooler off

I had a byski on my old GTX1080, it was pretty good

I like those cards where the cooler itself is a separate one, unlike on my card for example. Though the RAM aluminium plate is removable luckily.

Sucks though that I'll probably need to pay import taxes on that Bykski block as ordering outside of EU kinda sucks these days. Though some sellers have warehouses in EU so no taxes and other BS.

I tried to send a shot with not glass with an hwinfo cap but couldnt.. but here is the no glass shot and my hwinfo screen from when I was playing with it this evening

Playtime:

I do have my fans limited to about 2K so she got a bit toasty.. whoops.. was wondering why it was so quiet

V impressive. Might want to tighten up that SOC LLC a bit though, fair bit of spread there. LLC 3 it's constant 1.112V on mine but I do have a different controller than you

I was just up at max pump and fan speed (2000rpm push 1500rpm pull) to see what sort of scores I could get and I was at about 23411 cb @ 79.9C and 210W (kinda just punched in random numbers though, I don't have much interest in this area). So 84C on air is nice. But my ambient is also 4 degrees hotter than yours.

I've noticed that Ryzen core-to-core temp deltas are really bad compared to Intel. Maybe it gets better with lapping but not fully convinced. From what I can tell the differences get progressively bigger as you push more PPT. Better mounting + water helps a bit, but still they need to really work on this. Consolidating all temps into a single Tctl/Tdie is just avoiding the problem. None of the APUs have this problem and neither do the 1CCD parts I think though my sample size is limited on 1CCD

iirc i never paid anything. Just RM charged me £11 "handling fee" for some reason.

This is my second PC as on specs. This is a no non-sense pure gaming and entertainment PC. I occasionally install the 2060 Super here for gaming. Still performs excellent on every game I throw at it.
I got the motherboard as prize from ASUS OC India Tour on 27th February 2016. The RAMs, I won from an HWBot OC competition. Initially built the system on 2017 with an i5 7600K. Later on, did the CoffeeTime BIOS mod for 8th and 9th gen support, got an i5 9600KF brand new for a steal price and replaced the 7600K. This motherboard now supports every CPU from 6th gen to 9th gen. I also got a discrete TPM module since this motherboard lacks firmware TPM (Intel PTT) for less than 1200 INR (around 15 USD) and added full support for official Windows 11 that way.
That cooler (CM Seidon 120V) is about 7.5 years old and surely I have been nothing but mighty impressed with how it held up all these years. The i5 9600KF runs with an all core OC of 5.1 GHz along with cache frequency at 4.8 GHz!

The only modern thing missing from this is Resizable bar support, not that I am missing it since I don't have a RTX 3000 series card or an AMD RX5/6 series card but yeah, it is what it is.

I did try porting rebar from other similar Z370 based board BIOSes to this without success.

Pretty good cable management for a case like 100R, though that PCIe cable is screaming for a ziptie.
