Would it be posible to pair 2 H100i GTX?

[MegaAgente17]

Hi. Im thinking on pairing to 2 H100i GTX, like pairing 2 H100i GTX rads to a single pump with would cool the CPU (if that make sense), would that be possible? Would it work? Thanks for help!!!

Highly unlikely, unless you can find a way to dismantle them and resupply the environment with ample liquid. That last part being the key. You'd need to do a lot DIY work arounds, it will not be easy to do. Even with simply taking one apart and then refilling, there are many times where taking them apart simply kills them because there is no fill port.

Mmm... i could try then. Im gonna make sure to refill them very carefully so everything goes well (sorry if i write something wrong, im a spanish person )

Won't work. The liquid part will it's the pump part that won't. Those CoolIt pumps are not all that strong and you'll be doubling the liquid volume and weight. I should correct myself, it'll work for a while, then the pump will likely burn out if the diaphragm doesn't tear first. A viable solution to that would be to run the second pump in series between the radiators, so 1 pump is on the cpu and supplies 1 rad, out to 2nd pump to 2nd rad, out to 1st pump intake. The 2nd pump would just be a booster pump, the 1st pump would actually be on the cpu.

That's another con to look at. But im gonna take the risk, and try what you're saying by using each pumps. Also, what type of liquid solution should i use? Destilled water or coolant?

If you want to do that , Just Buy Swiftech , not Corsair. ... it allows you to add more radiators like any normal DIY watercooling set.

Nope not going to work. What your looking for is custom liquid cooling. That's what you need.

Yeah i know. But what if i tell you that i already own two H100i GTXs rads? And also, no money for custom WC, that's why im trying to expand my cooling system.

Then get a GPU bracket and use one for CPU and one for GPU , I see this is a better use for the two Radiators .


Edit : you can Mod it and use new tubes , but it is not an easy task... and if you ever do it , keep the two pumps working , dont cancel one of the pumps , just place it somewhere in the case , you need 2 pumps to push the water fast .

look in youtube for :

replacing H100 tube

and

Custom tube for corsair H100

Why can't you sell both H100is?

 

[MegaAgente17]

Thanks for your answers guy really appreciate it. Here are some pics of how it looks and temps on load at 4,6GHz 1,32v. Cheers!!!

Don't know. Anyway, i just done what i wanned to do and everything is working like a charm. See pics above

Wow. You blew my mind! Great job!

MERGED QUESTION
Question from MegaAgente17 : "Here's my Dual H100i GTX Radiator Project"

Hi guys. This is my Dual Radiator project. I spent almost 6 hours to figure this out. The results are amazing. Temps cames from 75c at 4,4ghz and 1,27v to 67c at 4,6ghz 1,34v. What do you think?

For those who will think i should of buy a custom loop instead, i already got these for a while now and wanted to do something to drop my temps.

Here are some pics (refresh the page if pics doesn't appear):

I hope you like it.

Can an admin please move this post to Cooling please? I think i posted it in the wrong place.

I am definitely very impressed with this.

Only thing I see possibly missing would be 2x more of the Corsair fans on that intake rad. It just looks a little incomplete. I like the mix of colors too, the white sleeves was a good call, most opt for just color matching everything in black and red. You should repost that build/pic in the members gallery.

Yes, i just added 2x120 fans to the intake rad and improvements are noticeables. More overclocking headroom for this beast. Im gonna try 4,7GHz @ 1.38/40v and see what are the results. Also, wouldn't 1,4v be too high for this chip?

Heres a pic of the intake Rad

1.5v is the shutoff, recommended you never go over 1.45v. Even 1.4v is pushing it, I'd suggest you really get into tinkering with the OC settings in bios, get rid of any and all eco settings, etc. Surf the Asus ROG forums, there's plenty of ppl who post working OC bios screenshots etc for that mobo and discussions on the merits of certain settings. (I cheated) and applied some of that to the OC on my MSI Z77 mpower and was pleasantly surprised. Most recommended leaving PLL at 1.8 default, but someone posted better success by dropping that to 1.7 instead, so I did and that alone enabled me to drop vcore from 1.39 @4.8GHz to 1.32 @4.9GHz. The lower you can keep the vcore and remain stable, the lower the temps, better off you'll be.

Yeah, i know. And i also now how overclock works and how to overclock and what to do before starting to play with the OC settings. I just wanted to know if 1,4v is a safe voltage. I won't go beyond that anyway. Thanks for response.

 

[MegaAgente17]

What CPU do you have?

Intel® Core ™ i7-5820K @4,6HGhz 1,33v right now.

 

[TechyInAZ]

1.35v would be my stopping limit. But if you have the cooling potential 1.4v is ok, but it will degrade your CPUs lifespan by a bit.

Nahh.. Im fine at 4,6GHz with this chip, and i wouldn't go over 1,35v anyway. It was just a question. Thanks for response
