EKWB Shopping Cart for Cooling Loop

[MachmirIndiehos]

Hey !

 

So im interested in building a waterloop into my Corsair Obsidian 450D.

I have a Asus Z170 Pro Gaming Mabo & i will have a GTX 1080 (i havent selected which).

 

my question is would the following shopping card be alright for a loop ? 

particularly the drain port is a concern of mine (rest was done with the configurator)..

i selected an Y - Fitting and two M-M extensions as well a valve to make a port. this works right ? 

 

thanks for help !

i actually dont need 2 M-M Extender. only one between the Y - Splitter and the Valve.

That last Nickel Fitting is for the draining tube.

wayyy overkill on the radiators. a single 360 with f3 fans is enough.

unless you plan on 1.4v for CPU and BIOS hack the GPU with 1.3v just spending for no gains.

the newer processor tech doesn't volt high enough like the older tech to warrant radiator space.

The vardar fans are acctually not that good for rads and at 2500/300RPM they should be extremely loud.

@GER_T4IGA suggestion for fans ? 

@airdeano agreed. 360 rad i enough.

[airdeano]

the vadar f3 1850 is plenty. can get it in your cart.

[MachmirIndiehos]

what about my drain port solution.. does that work ? 

[airdeano]

once the loop is in the case, then look for a drain option. ordering a lot of fittings (no return) can eat up shipping and wasted money in unneeded parts.

If it's no problem money-wise I'd go with 2 radiators, since you can run slow fans and still get good Temps. I don't know the layout of the 450D but I'd try to go with 2x280mm rads, since 140mm fans tend to be quieter.
