Hello. I'm wondering if the tubes of this cooler is long enough so I can side-mount the radiator. Parts: Deepcool - CAPTAIN 360EX WHITE RGB 229.6 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler Lian-Li - PC-O11DW ATX Full Tower Case

Well. technically i could mount a 240/280 rad on the bottom of my case as intake, but as the 120mm rad it came with did a good enough job, I can't justify the cost. I just want to fix the card. I do not intend to OC it (yet)

I think I just got a pump motor from a bad batch. It doesn't behave as it should mechanically now, but the bearing seems okay. As it was dead, there wasn't much reason to not investigate further.

Primo Cache is probably a better solution, as it works with any SSD https://www.romexsoftware.com/en-us/primo-cache/

So I removed the card from the pc and took off the cooler, then fed the pump (12V) by a molex psu I got and nothing happens. I think i'll buy Cooler Master MasterLiquid Lite 120 because it looks like the mounting holes might line up perfectly and it is significantly cheaper than a new cooler from arctic. I'm dissapointed in the longevity of the arctic cooler to be honest.

I'll do some tests tomorrow then and report back. Update: local chap bought it. No longer a problem for me.

not sure how I am to do that on a CLC with black tubes.

Hello. This is an abomination, but it used to work fine, now I don't know what's up with it... I was sent the wrong cpu cooler when waiting for parts, but couldn't be bothered to send it back, so i just threw it all together... Anyway here is the current parts and OC profile: Corsair Carbide 600C (inverted ATX) Gigabyte X370 Gaming K7 XFX XTR 850W PSU AMD Ryzen 1700 Multiplier: x38 - slight voltage increase to compensate (don't have the numbers on hand) Load line calibration: default (low is stock) Corsair Vengeance 2x16GB 3333MHz - 1.37V - 16-18-18-38-64 Inno3D GTX 980Ti iChill Black (Hybrid card, not overclocked) Samsung 960 Pro 512GB m.2 SSD 4x HDD's for a scratch disk in raid 0 (nothing important stored here) Fans setup: NZXT Kraken x62 front intake rad (cpu) 1x 140mm bottom intake fan (came with the case) GPU 120mm rad as rear exhaust I have tried swapping rear fan and bottom intake but that didn't help Also the thermal paste has been replaced on the GPU, dropping the average temp by 7 degrees. But still for some reason the GPU is hitting 80 degrees in 3 games and likes to default at 75 degrees in others For almost a year I could never hear the gpu fan spin up, but now it gets noticeable or even loud in pretty much every game I play I don't know what's up with the GPU cooler, but I'd like tips to try and fix this issue
