I was wrong...Elpida memory CAN overclock quite a bit higher.  Just gotta keep it REALLY COOL.  Heaven run at 1586 / 4205

Dont see much difference from win7 for me in performance after upgrading to win10.  2 way sli config too

Re-managed the tubes added a flow indicator too.

 

 


Old setup.


 
 

Specs:
Core i5 4690k OC 4.2ghz Gigabyte GTX 970 OC 1485mhz Asrock Mobo 8gb DDR3 (corsair vengeance blue) 2x 480gb Corsair SSD  Case Corsair Air 240 Thermaltake, Ring Fan's (blue) Pacific PT20 Pump/Res, Pacific W2 (blue inset) EK, GPU plexi block, acetel back plate, all fittings, soft tube (black) and blue coolant Fractal 240mm Rad from the Kelvin Phanteks PWM hub Cable mods Blue/Black Corsair RM cables Thinking of going hard tubing soon and swapping out the Rad (although it works pretty well in this config)
might do some custom paint to when I do the tubing.
 
this was my first custom loop so just wanted to try it see how it all works and this is the family PC..
Already started on my next project in my main rig... Just waiting on G1 980Ti blocks  
 
 

 
                
 

 
 
 
 

Finally finished (except for uv lights) quite happy for my 1st water build want to find a place to get some custom vynl art done to set it apart a little more, but at a later date, this cleaned me or if money for now

I agree. When I took my G1 gaming apart to put on the Waterblock.
The stock paste was hard & thick & really hard to get it all off properly.
And it only ran for a max of 4 hours before I took the stock cooler off...

Google, Facebook, the government and ISPs are already spying on you... Choosing custom Install only closes the hole a little. This is no reason to avoid Windows 10

Neither is it reason to just roll over and accept it.

Its probably pricier to do straight lines and use fittings for bends as you'll be buying a lot more fittings. One could argue if you dont have access to a heat gun that youll have to buy that, but theyre really not that pricy.
 
Id assume it would also come down to personal preference on aesthetics also, some would like the look of bends with fittings and some would prefer to have the clear pipe bends.
 
Its probably easier to do the straight piping, but pricier, but at the same time it could also introduce more chance of a leak due to the many many more fittings you would be using (Low chance but still increasing it).

why........

Yes but you will need this adapter to have a custom fitting on the pump

Will do a build log soon

its 6 whereas others are 4 phase and low asic doesnt mean a bad card. mines extremely low.

Hello fellow water coolers. So this is my first ever custom loop. It looks a bit messy but hey. If you want to know what parts I used, check out my full "build log" here.

And to top it off, here is a link to a video of the cooling loop being filled up: 
Filling The Loop

980 Ti has more VRAM and can be overclocked to match performance of 970 SLI

980ti is better. The performance is nearly identical and you get to avoid SLI issues plus you get 6GB of VRAM.
