  1. Ek ce 420mm i asked if my cooling loop would be okay in another post in the past and was told it would be
  2. A few things, first a big thanks to multiple threads on this forum to help me build my first computer ever! Secondly im still not as experienced within the world of computers so any tips/ comments would be much appreciated! Lastly the question about my cpu coolant is that i made a custom loop and I have a gallon of di water mixed with a concentrate from primo chill however after running my computer for a week or two my coolant lost its color and is now a clear slightly cloudy color. My thermals are fine im running 4.8 ghz on a 8700k running around 30 degrees c on almost no load and i think it was 60 degrees or 70 degrees under a stress test so everything seems to be running fine is their a reason my coolant lost its color? is there something i should be concerned about?

  3. Do you know where a good place to get an expansion card would be or a splitter?
  4. Corsair 1000d I have every other cable set up fine but i just dislike having dead ports and i'm looking to see if there is any solution to this problem for the 20 pin im noticing ill have to buy a pcie slot card that has two 20 pins coming out of it
  5. Hi so i have a case and a MB atm my case front panel has 2 usb 3.1 Gen 1&2 connectors looking for a spot on the MB. However my motherboard only has one slot for each i was wondering if there is a splitter for this problem? i would need one for my Gen 1 and 1 for my Gen 2. Any questions feel free to ask.
  6. Just need some quick help with finding silicone inserts for petg tubing from ek 10/12 https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-hd-petg-tube-10-12mm-500mm-2pcs forgot to place eks silicone inserts with my order and it would be pretty expensive due to shipping and take another week for just inserts so wondering if theres a good alternative or if i should just bite the bullet and re order from ek since people say tubings never the same if ur ordering from different companys
  7. What if i was to buy a multiport top https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-res-x3-top-v2-multiport and then a fill port bc i wont need all ports up top https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-af-fillport-g1-4-black would that be a better option?
  8. Making a custom loop for my new build. I usually just use AIOs but wanna switch to a custom loop for aesthetic purposes and good overclocking performance. Ok so my question is im purchasing the https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-xres-140-revo-d5-rgb-pwm-incl-sl-pump pump/res combo is it possible to use the top as an inlet from the radiator instead of the inlet port next to the outlet port? It would make my tubing route much easier if so.
  9. First off I had my first post for my psu and this forum in general was very helpful so thank you. Now I need help confirming whether my custom water loop would be okay to use since i know you’re not supposed to mix metals and all that. I plan on buying to cool my cpu i78700k overclocked and in the future i plan on cooling a 1080ti i know ill probably have to add another radiator if i want to do this. My case can pretty much fit any radiator size i know of. ek radiator: https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-coolstream-ce-420-triple ek monoblock: https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-fb-asus-m9h-monoblock-nickel still deciding on a pump/res from ek (so if u dnt mine helping choose a solid one it would be appareciated!) primochill tubing and fittings(soft tube for now: https://www.primochill.com/collections/flex-fitting-bundles/products/primochill-lrt-fsx-tubing-and-fittings-kit-1-2in-id-x-3-4in-od-crystal-clear-dark-nickel
  10. Looking for a psu wattage number for my new build. I plan on sticking with with corsair brand preferably axi. Just dont know how much wattage would be complete over kill or not enough so asking to be safe. Case: Corsair 1000D MB: asus maximus x hero (wi-fi ac) CPU: i7-8700k GPU: nvidia geforce gtx 1080 Ti (evga sc2 elite) (i also plan on upgrading to dual 1080ti) RAM: 4x8gb DDR4 corsair vengeance rgb pro 3466 Mhz SSD: 1TB Samsung Pro/Evo NVMe m.2 (still deciding between pro or evo) HDD: two 1TB seagate firecuda Fans: LL120mm fans x 10 LL140mm fans x 6 water cooling: custom loop from ek
