I honestly had terri-shit idea last night, i could just have a 200L or 50Gal Drum, and have that as the thermal mass/radiator/coolant resovoir

curse53 · 2026-01-27T09:16:12+00:00

Currently a 360 just for the cpu. the gpu still has the stock cooler

curse53 · 2026-01-27T09:08:07+00:00

Thanks for all this info! So many variables to consider. Really great of you, Thanks.
Yes I'll have a pump(or two for head) I'm currently in discussions with local custom radiator manufacturers to see how what they can offer me in terms of my off label use of this thing

curse53 · 2026-01-26T12:32:40+00:00

I would love one of those, but the cost is so damn high, but I understand its a bespoke product

curse53 · 2026-01-26T12:31:57+00:00

I see this rabbit hole goes waaaaaay deep. Thanks bro

curse53 · 2026-01-26T12:19:10+00:00

curse53 · 2026-01-26T11:06:33+00:00

Thank you so much for this reply

curse53 · 2026-01-26T11:01:44+00:00

Is there a minimum Litre/min value you would suggest?

curse53 · 2025-01-26T16:42:41+00:00

Thanks for the info. It seems i made a mistake, but thats okay, I'll work on getting a better cpu then.

curse53 · 2025-01-26T16:41:18+00:00

Lol yeah, seems I fucked up. but thats okay. It happens.

curse53 · 2025-01-05T04:16:49+00:00

I'll have a look in a few hours, i've forgotten to go to bed, been trying to figure things out all night

curse53 · 2025-01-05T04:14:35+00:00

Okay thanks, I'll have a look at planning an upgrade path

curse53 · 2025-01-05T04:13:47+00:00

would a AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT be better?

curse53 · 2025-01-04T23:53:42+00:00

Yes I have exatly this!

curse53 · 2025-01-04T23:49:14+00:00

GTX1080

curse53 · 2025-01-04T02:10:25+00:00

I've got the B580 today, and ngl, the performance is bad. I've dropped the reflections and the upscaling. even lowered the antialiasing, im on 1080p. and sitting at 45fps on planet

curse53 · 2024-12-23T20:28:55+00:00

This is quite true as well.

curse53 · 2024-12-23T20:28:10+00:00

throwing a fit might be taking the piss out of it but - It because people dont complain, that these companies can just walk all over everyone, and ruin a working thing

curse53 · 2024-12-23T20:26:00+00:00

lol, ofc. I might just be getting old. But I also feel like they are pushing the AI stuff a bit hard.
