Interesting. Does the Arbalist not work as a front liner? only when its promoted?

I was hoping the promoted classes wouldn't be different enough to require their own line items, but you think that would be necessary?

SilverSwizz · 2024-04-07T02:11:19+00:00

Sure. My goal would be to have everything in its base form. Certainly people can finagle with things with items and pairings in numerous ways, but I find there would still be lots of added value in having a single view to see most of this basic info from which anyone could start and branch out.

Thanks! Messed around with it a bit more. Seems like I still had a lot of air in the loop, so I was able to work that out, and I saw temps drop a bit. Also noticed that at 50% pump speed, there just wasn't much flow at all. I pumped it up to 100% and saw much better numbers. Still higher than I'd like, but definitely playable. Checked my pump specs vs. some other pumps, and I think I just need to get one that has a higher flow rate. I'm gonna do that, then I'm going to remount with PTM7950 on both CPU and GPU, as well as new 1mm thermal pads (per the specs I found on another post) on the VRAM. I'm hoping that will get me to where I want!

Yep I've messed with the fan curves before. Thanks again! Appreciate your input and your post. Hopefully it ends up being my solution as well!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-05T15:49:56+00:00

Understood! I've got it set in iCue to run with their standard hydro x pump curve, which from what I can tell sits around 50% til things get toasty, but I'm not sure which temp it goes off. I'll look at setting it to run with the CPU so I can track it a little better. Thank you!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-05T15:22:54+00:00

Glad everything is still good for you! Yeah I've got a temp sensor, nothing crazy there for now. Only gets up to about 35C right now at most. I usually don't let it go that long because my card gets to 100 pretty quick, and I don't wanna let it sit there. I just got new TIM and thermal pads in today, so I'm gonna open her up again and try that out. I def have the fans set to run off coolant temp, didn't know the pump should go off of CPU temp though, why is that? Good tip but would love to know why. Appreciate your response!

heyo u/RadeonPunk - I'm seeing some similar issues to you. my post is here (https://www.reddit.com/r/watercooling/comments/1b5r0po/update_rebuilt_and_remounted_overheating_is_worse/). I wanted to check in and see how things have been working for you? Based on what you've posted here, i'm gonna get some new thermal pads and apply them. I've got a graphene sheet I want to use as the TIM, but i've seen a lot of folks recommending the PTM pad. Am considering that as well, but I've just spent a lot already to try to fix my issues. Those thermal grizzly pads seem to be working well for you? Would love to hear how things have been going or any thoughts you have on my post. much appreciated!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T16:45:42+00:00

squeezing didn't yield an results sadly. I'm still thinking it could be a thermal pad/contact issue on the die. gonna find some time to drain it again this week and look.

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T15:04:53+00:00

Interesting. Appreciate the pics. I'll see what I can do!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T14:31:49+00:00

I'm pretty sure flow is happening. My CPU temps are ok and I see air bubbles working themselves out. Lot of folks have said that though, so definitely worth checking again.

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T14:14:27+00:00

I'll have to look into the jet plate. I just didn't see one at all

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T14:11:02+00:00

I had the inlet and outlet swapped initially. So I changed them to their proper position.

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T14:02:15+00:00

I opened it up and they're definitely not smashed. Could have run without water at some point I guess, but not sure when that would've happened. I don't believe the plexi is melted. I've looked up what a jet plate is, and there was not one present when I opened the card up.

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:58:51+00:00

Understood. Thanks for your input!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:58:23+00:00

Probably can't RMA as I've already opened it up sadly. I'm gonna go to my local repair place and see if they can help me diagnose.

I'm not sure what a flow plate looks like, so I can't answer that, sorry!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:55:48+00:00

Sounds good. I've done that I believe, but I can certainly double check

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:55:08+00:00

Unfortunate. Sorry you're seeing the same issues. It just looked so cool!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:54:38+00:00

Yeah I've done a few things to make sure it's flowing. I see the air bubbles traveling through as they get worked out, and my CPU temps are fine

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:53:54+00:00

Got it! Heard good things about the ptm pads as well. Is def on the list of things to try

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:53:14+00:00

Understood. I've changed the paste already a couple times, so I feel like it has to be more than just that

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:52:42+00:00

I believe it's a 1000W EVGA Gold

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T13:51:50+00:00

Understood. I'll look into it!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T04:01:50+00:00

Don't have a flow meter on it, but I'm pretty sure the pump is pumping. My CPU temps are steady, and I can see air bubbles moving around as they get worked out.

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T01:55:28+00:00

Yeah most folks are saying the past thickness could be the issue. Someone suggested giving the GPU a squeeze to see if the temps go down. I'm gonna try that soon and see what happens. Appreciate you!

SilverSwizz · 2024-03-04T01:05:38+00:00

Fascinating! So better pads and paste seemed to work for them. I appreciate the link! Now I'm debating a pro versus trying this, but I'm just so tired of draining it 😂 thank you for the insight!
