radiator

Hey everyone, I’m in the process of upgrading my water cooler and could really use some advice. Currently, I have a Ryzen 9 5900X paired with a small water cooler, but I’m looking to swap it out for a bigger 360mm radiator to improve cooling performance. I’m also mindful of maintaining the...

I've just build a new rig and have one issue to resolve. Case: Thermaltake The Tower 300 AIO: Thermaltake TH360 V2 Ultra ARGB Motherboard: MSI B650M Project Zero with 2 x RGB LED connector and 3 x System Fan header Because the AIO has to intake to pull cool air over the rad, the fans are in...

Hey, I just started building my gaming PC. My case is the Endorfy Ventum 200 Air, my CPU is an i5-13600KF, and I bought an Endorfy Navis F240 cooler. While building, I realized that my cooler is too big for a top mount in my case. The RAM sticks are a few millimeters in the way of the radiator...

I don't really know what the cause is, but the temp levels in my singularity wraith case are really bad. I have 2x Radiator 240mm and apart from the temps being miserable and going up to 100° cpu and 95° gpu after 2min of gaming... One radiator (pc front & vertikal) seems to not fill up with...

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum. my cpu is almost 4 years old but i don't think that's the problem. a few days ago I noticed that the temperature rose a bit excessively towards 80 degrees (playing team fortress 2 certainly not famous for heavy graphics). But today opening msi afterburner...

So I was wondering if it would be plausible to drill my own holes at top of the Nzxt 510 and be able to mount a radiator at top just wanted to ask before i do something stupid

I am on a custom watercooling loop with 13900k and two Corsair 360mm radiators, XR5 and XR7. I made the mistake of buying the older ML120 PRO RGB fans. I just found out they have mediocre performance and performs worse than the non-RGB ML 120 fans. I don't think the current fans have enough...

Hello! I have an NZXT Kraken z63 cooling an i9-12900k on an MSI Z690 Edge motherboard. Only anomaly is that the micro USB that powers the cooler's LCD isn't plugged in, but I don't think that has any impact otherwise. My problem is that when I turn on my computer, the pump and fans kick on, but...

I just built a new pc, and there is really loud and annoying noise coming from the radiator/fans, is this normal or do I have faulty item or something ? I'm doing top mount, so I guess there shouldn't be any bubbles. and I'm talking while pc in idle and all temps around 30C. here is what it...

I have an H100i Capellix Elite front mounted that came with ML120 fans being used as intakes. (I5-12400). But I hate how you can see the diodes because the back of the fan is what is visible, and was hoping to have all of the same fans in the case anyway. Am I able to just use all LL fans...

Hey y’all, So I’m currently planning a new system, which involves 2 280mm radiators. Finding cases is a bit of a challenge, but I did manage to find something, the Azza Celesta 340. Sadly, this case has an issue. The product-site states that you can install 2 140mm fans both on the front and...

I was wondering one thing about radiators. I have a fractal design define S (top picture, front picture). I do not have the front cover and the dust filter attached. Now for the dilemma. I can either fit a 360mm radiator with no obstruction in the front or a 420mm radiator in the top but with...

should i use a push or pull config for my 120 radiator at the rear side of my case View: https://imgur.com/a/fRqekvS

I have a Corsair Hydro 100i AIO, 240mm Radiator with 120mm fans. I'm trying to use the H510 Elite's case fans as the primary fan for the radiator. Is this viable or should I just stick with the fans I got with the AIO?

so i am only just getting into the gaming PC area. I know a decent amount about everything but cooling, and I i am buying a gaming PC and I am wondering. Should i use a radiator if i am not using water cooling? if so should i put fans near or on the radiator to help with cooling?

Hi, i just wanted to post a quick question. I would like to watercool my R9 290x for potential amazing overclocking and better temperatures. However, i have one CoolerMaster MasterLiquid ML240R RGB and would like to disassemble it to use the radiator and the pump for cooling. However, this is...

Hi everyone, I own an Inno3d 2080 Ti iChill Black graphic card. Link: https://www.inno3d.com/en/product_detail/page/56aa7eef1da667d00bad4bc2df21c7e1beee3a7c6ab7b7120f9506c96c7322da The radiator has been acting weird recently as it is not cooling the GPU properly. Half of the radiator is cold...

Quick question. I am getting Toughliquid Ultra 360 AIO. The whole unit comes with very nice static fans but I want to replace them with RGB FANS. From what I understand my Asus board (new Z690 model) has CPU_FAN and CPU_OPT for radiator fans as well as W_PUMP header for AIO pump. So here is...

I'm planning to use the CORSAIR iCUE H150i RGB PRO XT 360mm AIO in a TD500 Mesh case from Cooler Master. I only want to mount the AIO at the top. Will that be possible? I saw their website, saw a bunch of videos. But I'm not completely sure. Have any of you done that? Thanks for your time!

here is my pc build ( https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vPvp7X ) i am thinking of the p500a but its a bit expensive and i want other case reccomendations for these specs the 3070 Palit is about 300mm long what case can comfortabily fit my specs and keep the rad on top ? is the p500a good enough ...

Ryzen 3600 running mid 60s Celsius while idle, 80s when gaming. Running an MSI MAG Coreliquid 240R with 2 fans, and 4 more case fans. I've tried changing bios settings, as well as removing and re-installing my CPU cooler and CPU. I built this PC less than a year ago and I'm not sure what the...

Due to certain reasons, I removed big radiator from MSI strix motherboard and installed my own smaller copper radiators on Mosfet chips, but I noticed too late that one of the copper radiator is now touching the choke(rows of shiny cubical things on motherboard). So my question is, will it...

Hey seeing if anyone has experience building with the Corsair 220T case. I wanna know if it's possible to fit a 240mm rad on the top of the case. I've read that you need low profile ram. Ppl are saying 34mm. I have the new Corsair vengeance pro sl stick which are 44mm in height. Will that be...

I was looking into buying a new case in which I could install water cooling. I bought last year the Alphacool NexXxiS XT45 360mm Radiator V.2 and the smaller one 240mm XT45 V.2 since I planned to cool my GPU and CPU. I was expecting a "normal" GPU release and where I could get a new GPU since it...

I was just unboxing my Gamerstorm Castle 240 RGB V2 that I bought 2 days ago as I am building second ever PC. There are clearly visible bendy fins on the radiator. Please see: https://i.postimg.cc/yNBxQ3R4/IMG-20210623-233721.jpg This is a cheaper aio. Replacing it will be a huge hassle for...

There's nothing on my radiator that tells me how much coolant I need. https://www.amazon.com/Alphacool-14191-NexXxoS-Radiator-Radiators/dp/B00BEZOR90/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=alphacool+monsta&qid=1621283955&sr=8-2 I purchased a couple 24 FL from coolance I hope is enough.

Hi, I bought a Lian Li GALAHAD AIO 240 RGB, a Lian Li lancool II mesh RGB black tempered glass ATX case that comes with 3 intake fans in the front and I also bought a 120mm exhaust fan for the rear. How would you setup the AIO fans, intake, exhaust? I do not have the products already but I...

TL;DR 1. Are there any 360mm AIOs with long enough tubes to install them with tubes down in a Lian Li Lancool II Mesh? 2. Will a 280mm AIO + a 120mm fan fit in the front of a Lian Li Lancool II Mesh? 3. If the answer is Yes on question 1 and 2, which alternativ is better? (May need to read the...

Hi, I have a 4pin PWM noctua F12 as a radiator fan in the CPU_FAN header and the corsair H60 AIO (3 pin) pump in the CPU_OPT headerm my motherboard is asus z87-pro. My CPU_FAN RPM is controlled by the CPU temps detected on my motherboard (using Fan Xpert). Does the pump AIO receive full voltage...

So, a couple of months back, i swapped out the PSU on my old computer for a new one since the fan was slowly but surely dying. Turns out the PSU was malfunctioning and it kind of blew up and fried my system. Great! I take the decision to get a new computer since I can't really do much with an...

I would like to buy a normal fan for the radiator of an R9 295x2 video card. Which do you think would be the better choice? Akasa Viper 120mm or Corsair SP120 (Not RBG)

first off i bought an ibuypower prebuilt asus rog motherboard 12 core 3800x cpu 2080 super ssd etc So my radiator went out and i replaced it with a kraken as the original wasn't very good anyway. i literally plugged what i had to to get that switched and when plugging it in it says it’s not...

Hey, I have been planning a build for a few weeks now, and I have decided on going full custom watercooling using the Corsair Hydro X products. I have little knowledge when it comes to cleaning radiators. Will I need to clean the Corsair XR 5 radiators myself, or does Corsair clean them before...

Hi all, After measuring the coolant temperature of my setup, i was wondering if I could add a second GPU to my setup, given that 1080ti prices are down. Here are my specs and information below. Specs: Ryzen 7 2700x pbo 4.3ghz 1.46v Gtx 1080ti 2050mhz +60mv 4x32gb 3200mt Rm1000x psu Radiator...

I've had this question for quite a long time. Why do most people connect CPU block directly to GPU blocks without radiators in between while building their water cooling system? It's also very common in manufacturers' example cooling systems. The coolant is heated by CPU block and then flows to...

Hey everyone. I'm looking to swap my SP120s on my Corsair H100i AIO, since they're getting old and kind of noisy. I can't decide between the Noctua NF F12 and the ML120. Both have descent CFM and static pressure. The ML should be better (and looks better) But I heard they are much more noisy...

Hey everyone. I'm thinking of buying the Lian Li o11 Dynamic (not the XL version) and I'm not sure if everything I have will fit. I have the h100i liquid cooler for my cpu, with a 240mm radiator, and I have the 2080 EVGA hybrid, with a 120mm radiator. But the o11 doesn't have a rear fan. I want...

I remember watching a video (I think it was from Gamers nexus or JayzTwoCents) but I cant find it anymore, It was about testing radiators with fans on one side vs fans on both sides. Apparently depending on the Thickness of the radiator and the fin density, having too much fans caused the...

Hello Guys, I'm planning to custom water cooling my build (My case is Lian Li o11 Dynamic XL) , and here is the problem : 1) I'm thinking of installing two Radiators..... One at the Top and another at the bottom, and for intake It's gonna be 3 Fans placed at the Side of Lian Li case. so having...

Question about best fan placement through out my case. Right now I have a o11 XL with an Ek xe in push/pull intake at the bottom. I also have a nemesis gts 360 in push exhaust at the top, 1 back exhaust fan and 3 intake fans on the side. Is this the most optimal set up? or maybe switching the 3...
