The cpu goes upwards of 65 after like a half hour of gaming, gpus hover around 60.

The main reason I ask is because even with all those rads, my temps still get into the 60's from a 22C ambient

I lowered the water level so you could see the flow. If you look at like :06 you can catch a glimpse. The pump is right below the res. Res-pump-240-240-SLI GPU in Series-140-cpu-420-res. 240 xspc ex and ex crossflow 140 Alphacool XT45 420 xspc ex xspc raystorm and 780ti blocks

That rad -> res run looks a little wonky to me. That's all. It could be a product of the soft tubing.

Have you thought about going from your GPU to the top rad then to your CPU? It seems to me that would look better. But just my opinion. Don't even know if it would work.

On the 240 I have NF-F12's, and on the 280 I have the stock Define R4 fans and the Noctua NF-A14 PWM. I'll clean my rads soon and see if it helps, I'm currently out of distilled water.

Just did some quick math, based on a 2000rpm, 10 deltaC, my rads have up to 778 watts of heat capacity. My system is around 600 under full load. If i had to guess, playing DA:I puts my system at about 70% load during intense scenes. So say 450 watts to be safe. Put my fans at 1000 rpm and a deltaC of 20 degrees, I have more than enough cooling potential. I think. I could be horribly wrong.

The 280 rad is pretty thick and in push-pull. Under load the fans jump up to around 1200. I thought this as well. I'm kinda just waiting for my tax return to up the watercooling loop, but that means a new case as well.

Seems easy enough, minus the fact that I have to disassemble my loop yet again. My blocks are clean, took them apart and cleaned them myself. Hopefully something works soon because this is getting ridiculous.

I doubt that my pump is damaged, it's making zero noise and is working, could it be possible that its gunked up? It's either that or my rads are gunked up. Is there a way to clear out your rads?

So I watch a few videos online of people filling loops with D5 pumps. It seems that their fluid is moving way faster than mine. I what I saw was a 5 during filling, my pump drained the res at maybe a 2 with the setting at 5. I can hear the pump speed up with I play with the dial. Any ideas?

This looks sweet. I definitely like loop b more.
