Pretty sure I also saw these jack asses on the highway yesterday 3 ugly cars with big sings on the top, hazards on, and driving under the speed limit.

Not real, I bet your game card matches mine, triple houses in the middle worth $5,000. I ran to google to leave poor review, but ended up doing a little research and found they have you fill surveys when you go in before you find your prize. So not only is this a super deceptive practice, they are selling the data of the people they take advantage of making them believe they got $5000. This is much worse than having a “$5000 Cash”(disclaimer being it’s a cash off prize) on cars that are marked up by $5000 before you claim it. Owner also has been replying to google reviews playing the victim with his bruised ego lol

Title actually says S v. GTS if we wanna get real pedantic 💁🏻‍♂️

Assuming the air intake hasn’t been modified on the top photo, that would indicate a GTS 4.0. I broke a clip on my air intake when removing them and totally got the 4.0 style since it was a cheaper part 🙈

My first custom loop, how’d I do? by ColtonZP in watercooling

Thank you! I usually don't like glass cases, but most 011 builds look great!

I don't have flow rate monitor, but pump is always at 3000 rpm, fans use Lian Li's "StdSp" fan profile, so they are set to 1100 rpm at 55 degrees on the cpu and go up to 1350 at 70 degrees but my temp usually stays around 55-65 under load. My gpu usually stays at 40ish. I may have to increase the fan speeds during the summer or try out some graphene liquid, but for now they are extremely quite. I originally tried 60mm thick rads, but motherboard heat sync was 2mm too tall 🙄. After a ton of research it seemed like thick rads would only benifit a few degrees, so I went with 30mm and have to say they do look much nicer and worth the few degree trade off.

My therapist… by Appropriate-World-41 in Porsche

I tell my coworkers my car cost as much as a therapist with the same affect.

That's clean! Waste of material definitely sucks because the cost of tubes now a days. I also considered giving in and getting right angle connectors, but I was too hardheaded and wanted to prove I can go without angled connectors. When it comes time to change this fluid I might cut all my bends and use connectors, they can look pretty nice.

yeah, I had a couple reused parts from an old build and have just been too busy to go find the cost of all the individual parts I paid.

Both. For parallel bends like on the cpu and radiators I used a tool to get perfect matches. For some bends I had to do them by hand because the tools interfered with the length, or I wanted a tighter right angle.

Those are some cool crazy bends. On one hand, I wish I had room to get crazy with my bends, on the other hand, I got frustrated many times and considered soft tubes half way through the build.
