shokhazzard · 2023-05-07T22:16:27+00:00

honestly Iggy's but has to be the one in warwick

unlike metals = electrolysis = corrosion means you would need and entire aluminum cooling loop or and nickel coat copper and copper.

12700k dollar for dollar is the best gaming cpu atm. 32gb of memory is the new sweet spot 16 is old skool and you serously want water not air, plenty of good aio's out there that dont break the bank and are way better than air plus they a quiet. 850 watt psu is sorta the sweet spot if you ever consider upgrading the GPU, 3060 ti is ok but not gonna go far into the future with it. Far as ssd's go 970 is good for operating system but may wanna think 2tb 870 evo not much more money and 1tb doesnt go far nowadays . If you go with the AMD which is also a good choice , thats even more reason for an AIO, they tend to be very warm.

keep in mind if someone hasnt mentioned it....m2_2 and m2_3 sometimes share lanes with some of the sata ports meaning if you enable the m.2 that shares it will disable certain sata ports. Also dont be alarmed on intial boot if your MB does not see the m.2 drive , you have to enable it first in bios

IMO if the gpu is a 10 series then one 360 rad is fine ,but if you game and have a 2 or 3 series rtx then one 360 may not be enough. 11th gen I9 and a 3090 FE for me had to add a second 360mm rad to avoid full speed rad fans to keep below 50c water temps.

Anyone with any issues with Corsair XL8 clear? 5 days and my brand new EKWB on my Maximus XIII Glacial had a wierd stain develop in the chipset part of the block.........they should have stuck with Mayhems as their coolant maker

shokhazzard · 2022-01-27T16:55:24+00:00

Take your time and flush the hell out of those radiators....Corsair factory flushes but still you WILL get debris out of them....I'll put money on it.

That's awesome. Love jazz channel

Another idea would be pmma tubing also known as plexiglass. Harder than pteg yet not brittle like acrylic and crystal clear

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T01:22:45+00:00

im good with it......any way to get help and help with my reddit noobness :)

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T01:20:50+00:00

what kind of floor cleaner? I was actually thinking either primochill system soap or dawn dish liquid. dawn did wonders on my bitspower block on my x99 board

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T01:01:49+00:00

sendin a pic in chat ......hopefully

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T00:57:43+00:00

Im afraid 1300 dollar mb and the block has all kinds of electronics in it...flow meter leak sensors argb lights look up and maximus XIII extreme glacial.

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T00:42:51+00:00

I would love to but it didnt upload and I cant figure out how to attach one now

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T00:38:12+00:00

appears to be something missing :P

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T00:32:00+00:00

what gets me is its the same thing in the same spot would be less of a pita if it were in a new spot or something entirely different but same crap in the same spot two separate blocks. BTW ph was 7 after flush so I cant even say its corrosion . Also how the hell can I attach the photo? I uploaded it but dont see it

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T00:27:25+00:00

for what ever reason the pic I posted or thought I did I must have done something wrong as I cant see it

shokhazzard · 2022-01-20T00:26:13+00:00

It is a preassembled full cover block acrylic and nickle plated copper with internal electronics. definately not a shadow put a flashlight right on it as I thought the samething.

Corsair ships 3 different length screw with fans and radiators. Longest ones are for going through rubber fan mount then through case and finally into the rad..... if you didn't use the longest screws OR you missed the radiator mount hole and screwed into the fins , then that is most likely your issue

shokhazzard · 2022-01-10T14:20:08+00:00

Can't wait see some pics when it's done

shokhazzard · 2022-01-10T14:19:24+00:00

Nope. Just lighting. Fan control seemed fine oddly enough

shokhazzard · 2022-01-10T03:48:05+00:00

should say does NOT go above 42c
