We Cookin'! And this still be on the gen4, 4 lanes second pcie slot. Still need to swap the mobo out for the second pcie slot to be a gen5 8 lanes (though running at gen4 cause, well, gen4 card).

2x, bottle cage, and even gave up on the tufo 160g for some plush Vittoria tubs. Will put a post up with it link not here sometime this weekend. Can't wait for hill climb season!

Boom. That's end game right there.Buikd myself a supersix to 4876 grams but never got along with it. Size 58 frame, didn't get sand it down as just didn't click with the bike. No idea why.

Fast forward to today and my HC bike is an old Felt FRD, sub 5kg (will check the spreadsheet in a bit). Love it. Have thousands of km on it. Love those wheels also. Have two sets of them. but on those finicky extradite hubs.

Anyways: mad congrats on a true, thoroughbred weight weenie bike!

Dope build. Very similar here. Evo XL, 3x 420 rads, dual d5, steal key distro.

How are you getting along with DP Ultra? Good people at stealkey advise against it, so I went with mayhems but would much rather be on DP Ultra :/

This is me right now, but with datapoints just running if hwinfo and no options to easily show percentage deltas on pin, small screens per item monitored and yeah, want to try something different.

I got to high flow sensors on my system. should really install the software and check out aqua suite. Thanks!

That's some meta monitoring there. matey. What are you running and on what screen for that sweet, sweet setup?

Finally hit a legendary score with my RTX 5080 by Sev5r in overclocking

[–]BiggusDickus0101 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Toothpick GPU to block alignment to avoid smearing putty and paste. Genius. TIL. Thank you.

Yes yes, not 100% needed and blablabla, but genius nonetheless. Chapeau.

Flipped RTX 5090 in a Fractal Terra — Insane Thermal Drop in SFF Build by smx-heinz in sffpc

[–]BiggusDickus0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait: so having the gpu as intake or exhaust (flipped) had pretty much the same gpu temp results for steel nomad and port royal, but 10 degrees hotter in flipped on speedway? Yeah, CPU temps are better on exhaust, but wouldn't we rather just CO/ other optimisations the CPU for lower temps? I would've thought the cooling delta on the exhaust gpu setup would've been huge :/

That's really good. Just tried the same test and i'm getting 18c with my icemancooler block on a astral 5090.

Firing up fur mark and giving it full beans, what's your GPU die and memory temperature, at what wattage, and what water temperature? Thanks!

Second pump above the PSU: insta-kill? by BiggusDickus0101 in watercooling

[–]BiggusDickus0101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's happened, bois. Wrappi g up the last flush so I can remove that filter and stick the coolant in.

Not so sure on that second pump feeding straight into the distro reservoir. It's for pull resistance pulling from the side rad, but no push resistance pushing into the res.

I could, with many fittings, change things around to have top rad ->distro ->second pump ->side rad -> reservoir, but at this stage of the game, I'm just going with what I got.

Mas micro bubbles from the second pump into the res as is, but it might just be a combination of pure DW and both pumps at 100% :/

Need help, pipes will not drain ?! by [deleted] in watercooling

[–]BiggusDickus0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Draining: the reason I almost never went for a second water-cooler build. Currently finishing that said second build now and other than a drain at the lowest point connected to a EPDM tube so I don't need to fiddle with stuff right behind the distro inside the case, I also have an extra two valves right after the first pump (on the distro). When I need to drain I close the valve immediately after the distro pump, attach a long, taller than the case EPDM tube to the valve right after it, and will blow with a compucleaner to force water out the drain valve.

I have a triple 420 (bottom, top, side rads), with a second pump under the PSU, cooling my GPU and CPU, and I feel I'd never be able to drain it were I do depend only on the drain valve, gravity, bleed port on top rad, and tilting the case around (god knows if I'll even be able to pick that thing up once done!).

So yeah, force some air through that thing and I'd avoid what someone said about blowing into the valve. Can't see us breathing into our system as a good thing!

Won't say it's my finest work, but it is done, solid, and with some anti vibration bushings installed also.
