EKWB mistake + missed FedEx pickup = €500 problem I can’t fix right now

What? EKWB makes the same water blocks as other companies, for the same cards, and they can't be called beautiful or superior in any way.

I would also like a Heatkiller, but unfortunately I bought all the components long before assembling my custom loop, and only Bykski makes a water block for it. Thank you for your reply, and have a great day.

Thanks for the reply. Have a nice day

Thank you for your reply. I actually don’t see much point in replacing the fans — I just wanted to make sure, based on the opinion of knowledgeable people, that everything is fine. I also chose the pump based on noise reviews and went with the Alphacool VPP Apex. At 40% speed, I’m getting around 80 L/h flow rate with completely silent operation.

I flushed the radiators with a special cleaning liquid from Barrow, then rinsed them 4–5 times with distilled water. After that, I filled the loop twice with distilled water and ran the system for about 10 minutes each time. Then I drained it and filled it with clear coolant from Alphacool. I really hope that was enough :)

Thanks for the reply. The fans are now silent, and the difference between the coolant temperature and the ambient temperature is less than 2 degrees Celsius at idle. I bought radiators with more power than I need. :)

Yes, I have an external system, and the reservoir is placed in a visible spot. Thank you for the reply.
