    I actually just disabled the CPU fan rpm monitor in the bios. Since it really doesn't matter where the fans are located as the water temp is what matters. Which gets me to another question. I was thinking do I need a flow meter...

    Question First time liquid cooling advice?

    Yeah, my recovery and idle temps got so much better today when I removed the radiator fans from the CPU header and moved them to another fan header. Now everything is running off water temps only. Its also much quieter as the fans aren't ramping up and down at all. My water idles around 28-30c...

I did a pretty close job of measuring all the fans, radiators, pump/res etc and according to the manufactures specs, I...

    Question First time liquid cooling advice?

    I've read that loop order doesn't matter as long as you have enough flow because the temp doesn't vary much?

    Suggestions for a new screen

    In my current setup I have a GTX 1080 TI. The new screen must be 100hz+. I have so far narrowed it down to either a 21x9 1080p 100hz+ or standard 1440p 100hz+. Even so, there are still a good 25 options that fit my needs. What do you suggest? What about ULMB?

    Why not good fps?

    Most people here are going to blame your weak CPU. The CPU usage in windows does not give the full story of CPU usage and yes your system can still be bottlenecking without 100% CPU usage. I am sure someone else will give a detailed explanation of what I am trying to explain.
