How to estimate water volume requirements?

[cluelessgenius]

so how do i figure out roughly how much water ill need for my loop ?

i guess one way would be to fill it with water then see how much i needed to fill it and then flush and get the needed amount of the good stuff.

 

but is there like a short rule to quickly estimate how much water i might need?

 

ek supremecy evo cpu block

ek 1080 ti gpu block

alphacool monsta 360 x 80mm thick rad

alphacool ut60 360 x 60mm thick rad

alphacool xt45 360 x 45mm thick rad

ek xres 100 revo d5 pump res combo

...and extra long tubing runs between the components

AFAIK it's pretty much recommended to run some water through when you get them to clean em out anyways. Just empty the water into something you can measure with. Or weight the water..

yeah basically what i thought. i just thought there might be a rule of thumb

Dunno. I've got 1 x 360 x 25 and 1 x 240 x 25, gpu, cpu, small res, and only takes 600mls

Filling and draining would still be a low estimate. I’ve ran less rad than that and used 1500ml’s with small tight runs. 

 

Fluid is cheap, should by 3 900ml bottles. Better to have extra on hand Incase something changes. Unless the loop is perfectly designed now.
