I'm french so i'm not familair with 3/4 and 3/8 ...
What i mean is : 10 mm internal diameter is the right size.
13mm internal diameter / 19mm outer diameter is too big when you have to make tight turns and take a lot of place (the performance gain is negligible)
My approach to watercolling is to fit all the components IN the case so a ps06 is too small for that.
I don't like builds where all the components are so tighly fited that it is very difficult to put on a cable, empty the circuit, ...
And there is not a lot of case which remains practical after watercooling AND WITHOUT MODDING, the components take a lot of space.
Delta fans are not known to be silent so if you don't mind loud builds the radiator area is not that critical.
If the noise is not an issue, and you don't want to overclock a lot, watercolling is not needed, i think air cooling will do it
The advantage of watercooling is to be able to cool down oveclocked components with a quiet computer.
Me for example : my cpu is overclocked to 4.5 Ghz, the ambient temp is 33 degrees celsius and i barely hear my computer (a low murmur)
The pump is connected to a fan header on the motherboard comunicating only the rpm signal (the speed of the pump)How does that work exactly? How does the software interact with the pump? A USB connection?
The software reads the rpm signal and if it is 0, it can trigger an amergency shutdown
You can also do it checking the cpu temperature, if it is too hot, you shutdown the computer.
CPU and gpu have thermal protection preventing them to be damaged.
The water in the loop have thermal inertia so it takes time to heat up, it will be sufficient to shutdown your computer
The best solution remains to have 2 pumps
