    Pain in the arse loops . . .

    Going to have to mod one of the side windows and maybe make something like a rollcage to protect the tubing . . .I wanted to have a GPU on separate loops . . .hence a mess ensued . . .still have to do sleeving and such . . .




    I need a rig to game on at PDXLAN 12.5 by this Friday so I am just going to get it working and revise later . . .

    Did you ever weigh that case? I wonder how heavy it was? [The MM creation case]

    Never weighed it . . .crazy heavy tho . . .when it was empty I carried it by myself (hauled it looking like Jesus carrying his cross . . .sure the neighbors think I am crazy) . . .

    My best friend is also building his rig over at my place for PDXLAN 12.5 . . .his specs:
    QX6700 (I think that is it . .Exteme Edition that runs really hot) . . .
    Quad SLi'd 9800 GX2s
    Three BI 360 GTX rads, three DDC 3.2 pumps with DD tops, 2 XSPC double bay resevoirs, EVGA 790i mobo (did not get the darned chipset blocks for his or mine so maybe a future revision build)
    DD double-wide case . . .



    We messed up the loops in the pic we redid them with the reservoirs in the loops . . .one loop is resevoir to pump1 to rad1 to gpu1 to pum2p to rad2 to resevoir, other loop is simple CPU loop with rad, one pump, and reservoir

    Why do you have each GPU going away from each other arent they all on one loop?
    Whats up?

    In the blue hosed rig or red-hosed? The red tubing rig has each GPU on a separate loop, the blue tubed rig has each gpu on one loop but the inlet of each gpu is connected to its own radiator . . .with two pumps in the loop before each rad . . .keep in mind we re-did the blue loops from what you see . . .

    Did you test connecting the top card via the top threads and then the other two with 45s in the top threads? Actually I'm not sure 45s would fit as I don't have any but you get the idea.

    low profile 90s are the only way to do at least the middle card . . .I want it to look consistent so I did the same 90s on all . . .

    that is just awesome!
    i wanted to make something like that (separate loop for each gpu)...
    and looking at your project... wants me want to go with it
    reminds me of a v8 engine (in this case, v6?)... haha.

    nice job. sad to hear that you're going normal loop though.

    damned EVGA 790i board won't post so I ordered an Asus Striker Extreme 790i board and a set of Bitspower NB/SB/mofsets for it (I ordered two of the mofset blocks hoping each one uses the same one) . . .also order a bunch of dark 45s to at least pimp it up somewhat . . .
    parts are on second day order so hopefully I can get it running Wednesday . . .thinking take one D5 out and just have it all in series with two D5s in the loop . . .should be enough pressure for the three rads and all the blocks . . .
