Hello,
For starters the reason why i'm bothered with this: Tommorow my new screen will arrive ( 27 inch 2k IPS 165hz+ ) and i'd love to not sit in a sauna because of the temperature coming from my pc
.
I've recently updated my build with an gtx 1080 Sea hawk x from MSI. which means i've added the card into the custom watercooled loop.
The order the water is going atm is like this:
( Not sure if this'll matter since the water should be around the same temp everywhere but well in case it does
)
Reservoir => pump => Graphics card => Radiator => CPU => Reservoir.
While the GPU is idle in the beginning that the pc is down the temps are around 27 degrees celcius which is okay i guess.
I've played planet coaster now for about an hour - hour and a half, and the gpu seems to be around 50+ Degrees (max 54 Degrees). I know the graphics card can hold much higher temps but i've read somewhere that with water cooling you should sit at maximum high 40ies.
Below a screenshot of the temps ( game's are already off while taking this screen)
My liquid cooling specs are the following:
PUMP: EK-XTOP Revo Dual D5 PWM Serial pump
Coolant: EVO UV LIME GREEN EK coolant
Radiator: EK-CoolStream PE 360 ( triple )
Tubing: EK-HD PETG 12/16mm
Reservoir: EK-RES X3 250
Fans: Noctua NF-S12B Redux-700 3x on the radiator.
Not sure if this matters but PSU: Seasonic Platinum 520 Fanless
And last but not least a picture of how the loop looks
Is there somehting i'm doing wrong here?
Thanks in advance,
Wouter
