Hello. 

 

I was wondering  if its possible to run dual 240mm rads,Graphics card waterblock and Cpu block (Eisberg itself) without any reservoirs. And is that Eisberg powerful enough to do that.

 

Trying to do somekind of budget watercooling build..

 

Rads i would use.

 

EK-Coolstream PE 240 x2 or Alphacool Nexxxos ST30 240mm and Alpahcool Nexxxos Monsta 240mm

I wouldn't trust it to run a full loop mate, it is advertised as upgradable but the pump just won't be up to it. The pump what is in it is basically an Alphacool DDC LT, and isn't great, I bought one to try a few months ago, I had a cpu, and a 360 Monsta rad connected, and it struggled, 

 

        When it comes to water cooling mate, the bottom line is it isn't cheap, and you do get what you pay for,  especially when it comes to pumps, the D5, and DDC are top of the hill for a reason, reliability. Your far better off taking your time, and buying it, bit buy bit. Or even get a kit, but I can guarantee over a few months you would have changed most if not all of that.

I haven't heard good things about the CM Eisberg..

 

I wouldn't recommend doing that.

 

The best way to get cheap water cooling results is to buy an AIO for your CPU, which you already have, and an AIO + G10 for your GPU.

 

Check out my How to Water Cool a Single CPU + GPU for Under $200 USD Guide.  I know you're not in the U.S., but still lots of useful information.

The problems with the Eisberg were on the first model released. On the new version, everything has apparently been sorted out. I can update you on this in a couple of days, as I've got the new 240mm rad version on order.
