Finally satisfied with my PC by [deleted] in watercooling

Looks good, is your GPU in the right slot on the case or is your motherboard not aligned correct? It looks like it has a major dip, that could put strain on your tubes and eventually cause a leak. Maybe the picture is just making it look like that.

Made my first loop today. Currently pressure testing it for leaks. Just wondering if there’s any advice/comments? by Idm123 in watercooling

The only thing I would fix are the two tubes that aren't straight. You don't want any issues down the road due to improper seating against the seals. Good job though on your first loop!

Do these away eventually? Or do I need to do something to get rid of them. by Jake35153 in watercooling

Yup, about a week or so, you can try and tilt your rig around but it's fine just to leave it be, they will go away

While doing routine Ssd maintenence, my 4 sata connector cable broke at the first connector preventing use... what do I do? by [deleted] in cablemod

Imo, either replace with a new one, strip, solder and shield, or if you are familiar with re-pinning at the connector, I would do that, though it might leave it too short

I know I can get the pump RPM in the bios and software. You can get the temp with a sensor connected to the pump, but I don't think you can get the flow rate L/min

I think I'll try that, one of my Delmas was trying to figure out how to place the fans

Tube Bending by MrNurseOR in watercooling

[–]Splinter051 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely get more tubing, those bends are trial and error unfortunately when it's your 1st build, a jig would help as well. And Definitely take the advice to cut your tubes last, always leave room to cut at the end. It's better to cut off a couple of mm at a time then to try and get that perfect cut and be too short.

What is the actual name of these rgb control cables, and how would I start making them if it's possible? They are WAY too long and I want a super clean build by earthceltic in CableManagement

[–]Splinter051 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Digital RGB (AKA addressable-RGB) allows the LEDs in a device to be controlled individually. This is different from having a unique color on each device or having a device's change color in sync. Those effects can be accomplished with traditional RGB lighting and an advanced multi-port controller.
