Is it possible? GPU ONLY liquid cooling with distro plate/pump & rad/fan combos

Have an O11 Dyanamic ATX size and I already have a AIO for my CPU.

 

Wondering if its possible to use a distro plate to create custom cooling for GPU only

 

I'm thinking I just need to plug the inlet.outlet for the cpu holes on the distro plate and have the following connection/flow

 

GPU to DISTRO/PUMP to RAD/FAN back to GPU while obviously plugging up the CPU inlet/outlet.. anyone done this? Or would I just have a tube connected between the inlet/outlet of the cpu holes in the distro plate?

 

If you're wondering why, I'm satisfied with my current CPU AIO and I don't see any AIO solutions for my current GPU [colorful game 3090 advanced OC] as the gpu fans can get quite loud under load.

how many holes do you have on your plate?

Either planning on using either of these from EK

Nah that the fill port at the top and the drain port at the bottom

where are the holes for inlet and outlet.??

and how many there are in the plate??

for the quantum version here is the layout

          Can you put stoppers on the Cpu holes on the plate? (if yes then you can do a custom loop for gpu only)

I presume they would sell additional stoppers for spare parts.. I don't plan on doing hard tubing so I guess I could just soft tube to link up the inlet/outlet as well for the same effect right?

yes you can, but it will look disgusting. than two stoppers

Use the CPU Outlet to go to the GPU and use one of the GPU inlets to get back. Cover the rest with standard plugs (those holes are after all G1/4 so any standard G1/4 threaded plug/cover will fit). I'm not really sure though why you'd go that route. The costs for having a GPU only custom loop are so high that the additional 60-100 bucks for a CPU block + 4 more fittings are really not that much compared to GPU block, distro plate, pump, radiator, 8 fittings, tubing.
