Strange request. Need to keep the liquid in a liquid cooling system under 35c.

t33to

What radiators/fans would allow me to achieve this. It will be cooling an r7-1700 (stock clocks). The liquid needs to be 35c or less. Is it even possible?

I believe air conditioning will get the job done.  But I'm guessing that isn't what you mean.

Y would you need to stay under 35c?

So it comes down to this. You need a combination of DeltaT and ambient temp to accomplish this. So if you have a DeltaT on your water loop then your room temp needs to be 30c or lower. If you have a 7c DeltaT then your ambient needs to be 28C or less. So you need to get enough rad space and air flow to get a low delta C (5 or less) then you need to keep your room temp below 30c.

My room is generally on the the cooler side but my 480mm rad keeps the liquid in my loop bellow 35 better than 90% of the time and that's on a loop with a  3600 and a 2080TI

Link to your radiator please.

Meaning your machine is idle 90% of the time. I am pretty confident that in a stresstest, benchmark, or game that it would not be able to maintain 35c or lower unless your room temp is 20-23c. I would think you are hitting 10-12c DeltaT on that radiator. Nothing against the rad, just it is a slim rad designed for low airflow so the TDP on it won't scale much higher even with high rpm fans.

If need be, I'll get two and see how it turns out. It's for a highly experimental wall PC.
