My first ever major watercooled pc project and decided to go with CPU, GPUs and Mobo waterblocks and double rads. Been an expensive project but is now finished, what you guys think?

7970 Matrix Platinum waterblocks are EK, along with CPU and Mobo.

Expensive cards to start ripping apart, very nervous times lol

Cards done, Mobo and CPU coolers on, getting there.....

Time to start fitting this kit back in 🙂

Test time, no leaks, thank god 😉

fans all installed, bitfenix red cables in, blood red coolant in, pretty much done now!

All done, built, leak tested, ran for a week or so now with no issues.

Temps for the CPU:
28 degrees idle, 45 max under load

Temps for GPU's
27 degrees idle, 40-45 under load

Huge improvement for my cards, they were 70-80 degrees under load before i decided to watercool them. Massive temp drops!

Cheers lads. Playing Dayz for 4 hours today and GPU temps were around 45 degrees, so much better.

I'd recommend water to anyone running 7970 Matrix Plat cards

I think your coolant will clog up your water cooling parts, distilled water with a kill coil is better.

Why do you think that? All my parts are EK and i'm running EK premixed fluid so can't really see an issue.

hello Laing1982 , looks very nice man
the black and red theme looks great
as far as the coolant goes I have used dyed
coolant before and it does clog up the loop
after a while, keep an eye on it as you will
anyway and they do say that maintenance is
important like 6 months.. perhaps?????
I'm sure after building such a beast you
are aware of the above, I am also in the process
of building a new system and it's a great feeling of
achievement well done, enjoy it Laing1982
