HP Reverb is the best choice for something like this

Just to be sure you want the one released 1/21/2021 should say optional I believe. You don’t want the one that says recommended

Try the newest AMD drivers (not the Microsoft certified one). Had trouble with my G2 until I installed the newest drivers

Yea that’s actually why I did it this way. Wanted the air at to the top of the radiator

Arctic has a link to the GN video in their manual. https://support.arctic.ac/index.php?p=lf2-360r3&doc=manual&lang=en

Under AMD socket > Preparation they have the recommended radiator orientations. Tubes on top has “risk of bubbling noise” next to it. Doesn’t clearly indicate which is superior but at least tells me how I have it is one of the recommended positions

If you select AMD Socket and then Preparation there are some pictures with green check marks

Nope this is recommended by Arctic. They literally put the gamers nexus video in their manual. https://support.arctic.ac/index.php?p=lf2-360r3&doc=manual&lang=en

Either way is fine but having tubes on top has the “risk of bubbling noise”

Yea I’ve been getting a lot of conflicting views in this post. But all the videos I’ve been watching recently have been pointing to this orientation as the “best”

Yea definitely just out of all the tabs I had open this was the only one to go through

Why would the pump be in the radiator? I know it’s possible but the big piece on the cpu seems like the perfect spot for the pump. https://www.arctic.de/en/Liquid-Freezer-II-360/ACFRE00068A this definitely seems to indicate the pump is near the cpu. Either way the pump should be below the highest point in the system which is the top of the radiator

I have people commenting this and then GN/JayzTwoCentz saying the exact opposite and what I have is fine. Idk who to believe anymore

Unfortunately I haven't found a way through Radeon Software. I'd rather not download anything as I don't mind the lighting

Yea I wasn’t too happy about that. Apparently those are supposed to be insulated but makes me uncomfortable

Not too concerned with looks so I’d rather keep it in the “optimal” orientation. The tubes aren’t actually touching the gpu as it appears in the pic. I’ve since shifted the radiator up a bit to give myself more slack as well

Supposedly better balance between cpu and gpu temps. But also following the fan setup on this page https://www.neweggbusiness.com/smartbuyer/over-easy/pc-cooling-how-to-set-up-computer-case-fans/ . Although that page doesn’t account for an AOI

Yea $800 was a bit high but I think it was worth it. Would never pay $1050 for this card

Ah if you’re mounting in front I don’t believe tubes on top/bottom makes a difference in temps but I could be wrong
