water cooing

Hi All, I'm currently running a custom water cooling loop with a 360 rad, that is only cooling my CPU (i7-6700k). My current GPU (GTX 1080) is air cooled. I will be getting an RTX card (probably 3080, maybe 3090 if the stars align and budgets can be met), and when it finally releases, I may...

Hi, I'm about to fill up my water reservoir for my water cooling system. I have an external fully modular PSU that I can use to connect my pump for filling up the loop. My question is, do I need to jump external PSU or just connect pump to its molex cable only? or Do I also need to connect the...
