    Could i run vinegar through my loop to clean it or would it cause harm?

    Along as your not running pure vinegar as a coolant it should be okay, I would dilute it 50/50 with distilled water. Probably just need to run the loop for about 48 hours and it usually gets the gunk loose and you can just run distilled water to clean vinegar off.

    hm... i would try taking it apart and inspecting all the screws and make your everything is getting proper contact and you used the right screws for the right area. ill be honest i have no experience in water cooling just taking a guess

    The screws that hold the pump down is tightened down to the tightest it would let me. The screws themselves have springs on them to prevent over torquing the screws.

    @YubinTheBunny What block are you using? Is it the EVGA closed loop one or something like an alphacool GPX? Im confused. Also i guess you didn't touch the voltage and it runs completely fine without the OC? 

     Its just the EVGA hybrid conversion kit that uses a AIO to cool the gpu. http://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=400-HY-5188-B1

    The voltage is left at stock.

     

  4. So I have a gtx 1080 FE that is converted in to a gtx 1080 hybrid for my sister's rig. I've been noticing that the gpu runs relatively hot compare to almost every benchmark that I have read. I've done all the basic troubleshooting such as replacing the thermal paste and making sure the pump is working. I've also tried running the fans (noctua NF -f12s) at 100% and it lower the temps by about 2-5C but the noise is pretty bad. 

     

    So just for note the card is overclocked with a offset of 202 mhz on the core 500mhz on the mem. The gpu is hitting 60C with an ambient of 22.5C which is pretty hot when I see other reviews getting delta Ts of 20C or lower (I'm getting about 37.5C here). The case is a Phantek Enthoo Evolv matx and the rad is mounted to the front as an intake. Tried mounting it to the back and top as an exhaust it made it worse (Hitting 70C). 

     

    I know performance wise as long as the gpu is not hitting the thermal limit its okay. But when your gpu is getting 10C+ more then everyone else out there you start to wonder what the problem is. 

  5. If you mean the i5 7600k, it should work. But you might need to do a bios update for the motherboard. Check the download's pages change log to see if it mentions anything about adding kabylake support for the motherboard.

     

    EDIT: I did it for you, you will need a bios update (to version F20) to support kabylake.

    I wouldn't say the G900 is 'freaking light' at 107g its not heavy but when looking at zowie mice and other mice aimed towards hard core fpsers they tend to be closer to 90g or less. Still given that you have no cable drag/ cable weight and its about as heavy as a Deathadder it defiantly does not feel particularly heavy. Especially when comparing it to a mouse like an MX Master.

    Well, with a battery in it I think it's pretty freaking light. At least relative to other wireless mice that I have used in the past xD The lightest mice I've ever used was the  SteelSeries Kinzu V2 Pro, it's about 77 grams. Not a great mouse, but at least it's light.

    Price is also a huge factor. Is there a BIG difference?

    I dunno where you live but a nice IPS display where I live is about the same price as a high refresh rate TN. So if you look around you can probably get a decent brand IPS for a decent price. ( I tend to avoid the no name chinese and korean ones, but you a couple of gems here or there.)

    Looks like a nice mouse but its probably going to be quite heavy so if you are somewhat serious about fps that is worth considering. 

    I totally agree. The one of the best things about the g900 is how freaking light the thing is. Which is good for reducing wrist and hand fatigue, which is the problems I have with heavier mice like the MX Master (Not a gaming mouse) when I game on the go. But the the amount of macros on the Roccat would make it quite good for MMOs where fatigue would play a lesser part (I'm assuming).
