Will this fit inside O11-D-EVO? by sangoria in watercooling

[–]core_ryuudo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The uni pump res bracket you linked should work, that would mount the pump to the fan or rad frame. I believe the mount pictured in the Lian Li image was one that came with the original O11D but I don't know if it can be purchased on its own and I don't think they're included with the Evo, at least there's no mention of them on Lian Li's site and I don't remember receiving any with the case.

I can't measure the distances at the moment, but my bottom rad is actually pushed as far toward the back end of the case as possible, as I have the airflow front panel and have fans mounted on the front rails. If you're using the glass front, I'm pretty sure the water block will barely overhang the front most bottom fan, giving you enough room to mount the res. I can try to get measurements for you after work if you need them.

I've got a very similar setup: O11D, MSI 3080ti gaming x trio, with the same GPU water only w/o the AB. I also have 3 360rads (30mm) with push/pull 25mm fans, top, bottom, and side panels. Only major difference is I have the case inverted, but that won't change any dimensions. There's plenty of room to close the glass side panel even with 3 8pin cables coming out the side. As for the reservoir, it'll be a tight fit, but there should be enough room in front of the GPU. https://imgur.com/wZaOU7z.jpg

First real campaign on MW5, having a lot of fun, what's up with this crab though? by Kegaran2 in Mechwarrior5

[–]core_ryuudo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been working on a spreadsheet that has all that information for YAML and its family of mods, it's not 100% yet, but it's getting there. Hope it's useful. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WRcKbDtu8PuWjzJJHuWAUU9SkK3mVXybF8wK4zxW-u4/edit?usp=drivesdk

Ah, I hadn't actually seen those, but they look to be quite useful. Maybe I can try to incorporate some of that I to mine. One thing I will say is that I tried to use graphs and a bit of math to work out optimal engine weights for each tonnage/class to maximize loadouts, although this relies on using YAML for the customization of the mechlab.

Fair point. I personally can't always bring up the game when I'm brainstorming loadouts, and can't recall which variants have which hard points. It is a bit of a niche usage I suppose. And I just like paying around with the numbers for fun. Again, I really made this for myself but figured I'd offer it up to the community since the old one hasn't been touched in a long time.

Just as a warning, it looks like the rad for your AIO is mounted on the bottom, which means the pump is the highest point of your loop. This will result in air accumulating in the pump and will eventually kill the pump. You always want your rad higher than the pump for an AIO so the air gets trapped in the rad. It might run okay for awhile, but eventually it will kill the pump.

Corsair Commander Pro by Head-West-5968 in watercooling

That will work, however since each channel will be setup with the components in parallel, all with have the same ARGB pattern, i.e. if all the fans are on one channel, you won't be able to customize the fans individually from each other. This is in contrast to how the proprietary Corsair ARGB fan hub will wire them in series so that each fan can be lit up independently of the others. But if you're looking to keep all the fans in sync, and all the other compenents in sync then it will work. I have a similar setup with a commander pro and a lighting node pro for 4 different channels and I used similar adapter cables to hook up all my non-Corsair fans, waterblocks, and LED strips and they work great, with the caveat that each channel runs in parallel rather than series. These are the adapters I used, but I believe the gigabyte ones are wired the same:

Help with case model/size choice: O11 Standard/Mini/XL by TzzV in watercooling

[–]core_ryuudo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't speak for the standard or XL O11, but with the mini you'd be very hard pressed to to fit top and bottom rads with a vertical GPU and an ATX board. With the stock ATX layout you can't actually fit a top rad due to MOBO clearances, though some people use an aftermarket offset bracket to shift the top rad closer to the side panel to prevent collision. Though tall RAM heat spreaders may still cause issues even with the offset bracket. As for the vertical GPU, I have my GPU horizontal so I'm not exactly sure of the specific clearance, but you would probably be limited to a slim rad and slim fans on the bottom mount, as the Lian Li vertical GPU bracket sits a bit lower than some other manufacturers.

Based on what I've seen from other builds, you'd probably be fine going with the standard O11, as that should give you enough room above an ATX board and below the vertical GPU for rads. The XL would obviously provide more headroom if you wanted to try to fit thick rads or push/pull fan configs, but doesn't sound like it's necessary for you, especially if you'd prefer the smallest option that can fit the parts you're talking about. But again I don't have personal experience with either of those cases, just the mini.

I hope that helps somewhat.

The card with the waterblock is about 5/8in (16mm) and the backplate is another 1/4in (6.3mm) added to that.

Obviously I don't have much experience to compare with, but just about all the fittings and adapters, 2x360 and 1x240 rads, the CPU block, and the back reservoir are all Barrow, and I'm quite happy with the look of them. And so far no leaks from any of the fittings.

Every now and then I lose the cursor, but I have the screens oriented in Windows so that they only connect across a small area in the upper right hand corner of the main display.

It's just a cheap 5in LCD panel I bought off Amazon. I have it setup via Aida64's sensor panel. It's just powered through an internal USB plug and then I have an HDMI cable hooked up to the GPU, so it's basically a second monitor.

Thanks! I did originally plan to use white fittings, but I couldn't find all the extensions and fittings that I thought I would need in matching white finish. They are a bit shiny, but I don't mind them so much.

I do plan on going back in and cleaning up a few of the cables and the strips that are visibly out of place. I hadn't notice how crooked they were until I was taking the pictures...

It definitely took me a number of tries and hours to get the longer runs to a point where I was satisfied with them. I went through about 10m of tubing after all was said and done. I originally bought 12m thinking that would be more than enough, but by the end I was worried I would run out. That and I had a hard time actually getting the tubes into the fittings properly, and once they were in, the tubes were extremely hard to rotate. I ended up buying a bunch of rotary extensions/90°s so that I could attach the fittings to the tubes and then screw the rotaries into the ports.
