Hello guys,
I have the following Hardware:
- i7-920
- HD 5870
- Corsair HX 1000W
- Corsair Dominator RAM, 1600MHz, 6GB
- Corsair 800D case
- 2 random HDD.
My LCS hardware:
XSPC RX360 (& a spare X-flow stealth radiator 360)
- Laing D5 pump
- 1/2" ID, 3/4" OD White tubing
- XSPC single bay reservoir
- Komodo 5800 Water block
- Apogee XTZ Water block
- Compression fittings, straight.(No angle)
- barbs
- Noctua Thermal Paste
- 6 Scythe Gentle Typhoon 1850RPM
- Distilled water.
My question:
For my hardware. I am planning to cool down my GPU and my CPU in one loop. With the XSPC RX360 radiator in push/pull setup. I was thinking the following sequence of the loop:
[Bay-Reservoir -> D5 pump -> GPU -> CPU -> RX360 -> bay-Reservoir]
So what I want you guys to tell me is if there is any way I can make this loop perform any better, changing the reservoir, using special compression fittings with angle 45?
What do you guys think about my loop?
1) Change reservoir to something better/ more convenient?
2) Buy some 45-degree compression fittings for better tube management?
