Need a full custom loop to cool CPU + 2 970s
I would love that, I just found this https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-fc970-gtx-wf3-nickel?SID=0qob1489ngrtut16d76opf7vv5 looks like the only G1 cooler.
I see, I just found the GPU block I need: https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-fc970-gtx-wf3-nickel?SID=0qob1489ngrtut16d76opf7vv5
LONG POST WARNING
you need:
1. a waterblock for your CPU: https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-supremacy-evo (clear) or https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-supremacy-evo-acetal (black)
2. 2 waterblocks for your GPU: https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-fc970-gtx-wf3-nickel (clear) or https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-fc970-gtx-wf3-acetal-nickel (black)
2 backplates for your GPU (optional, they only make your system look better and have minimum effect on cooling performance): https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-fc970-gtx-wf3-backplate-nickel (nickle) or https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-fc970-gtx-wf3-backplate-black (black)
3. radiator(s) (your case supports 360mm on top and 280mm in the front according to corsair's website): https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-coolstream-xe-360-triple (360mm thick option, goes in the front) or https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-coolstream-pe-360-triple (360mm slimer option, goes in the front) and https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-coolstream-ce-280-dual (280mm, goes in the front)
4. pump: https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-xtop-d5-pwm-plexi-incl-pump (plexi) or https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-xtop-d5-pwm-acetal-incl-pump (black)
5. reservoir: choose whatever size that would fit https://shop.ekwb.com/reservoirs/reservoirs/ek-res-x3-series, maybe the 250 one or 150 one
pump-reservoir combo (optional, if you want to reduce the difficulty then go with a combo unit instead of separate pump and reservoir): https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-xres-140-d5-pwm-incl-pump (normal style) or https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-dbay-d5-pwm-incl-pump (drive bay style)
6. 14 fittings: any color of your choice here https://shop.ekwb.com/fittings/compression-fittings/for-10-13mm-3-8-1-2-tubing
7. 2 sets of tubing (1 set won't be long enough): https://shop.ekwb.com/tube-primochill-primoflextm-advanced-lrttm-12-7-9-5mm-crystal-clear-retail-3m (this is the clear one, but any color would work)
2 liters of coolant (can be premixed or mixed from concentrates, don't think 1 liter would be enough) (optional, you can use distilled water and some agents or you can use these commercial ones): https://shop.ekwb.com/accessories/cooling-liquids-coolants, a company named mayhems also make great coolant, this is my favorite http://www.mayhems.co.uk/mayhems/index.php/products/specialist-coolants/mayhems-aurora
thats basically all i can think of right now, hopefully i didnt forget anything. You could buy some extras in terms of fittings, tubing and coolant just to be sure but that should work.
Dont forget fans! youll need 2x 140mm fans and 3x 120mm fans, those labeled "static pressure" would be preferable
