Posted July 19, 2013 another example of blowing it out of proportion... he doesn't need to undervolt anything. the "general" watercooling rule is one 120 fan cool rad area per heat source, he as 3 heat sources and a 360 rad full of fans, plus a 240 rad with no fans... all he has to do is turn up the fans on the 360 more than they'd normally run at I'd like to hear the long answer to all of these short answer no's... he has enough cooling to use his pc normally without freaking out. 3930k runs hotter than average cpus and the general rule of thumb is one 120 per heat source plus another 120 and even if it can run would you be okay with running at 80+ degrees keep in mind that the fanless 240 will do almost NOTHING <p>Wires Suck :angry:!fY0|_|(4|\|R34[)7#!5PMM37#3(0[)3:1337 70833|\|73R3[)!|\|49!\/34\|/4Y 4|\|[)93741!f3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 19, 2013 Really tough should least use some low rpm silent fans Tough you could use a automatic fan controller and tweak it such way to be nearly deadly silent at idle temps for example Did you even read anything? He just can't connect 2 of his 5 fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 19, 2013 The thing is his pump could overheat (yes pumps overheat) or his resivoir could melt (I'm serious some xspc resivoirs melt when they reach too high temperatures its not like he's trying to run all this off one 120 rad... 2 fans are not gonna make that much of a difference. if the pump/res was in danger of melting with 3 fans, then 2 wouldn't be all the much safer. like I said before, he just needs to turn up the speed a bit more on the 3 fans that are on his 360 HP something | 5600X | Corsair 16GB | Zotac ArcticStorm GTX 1080 Ti | Samsung 840 Pro 256GB | OCZ Agility 3 480GB | ADATA SP550 960 GB Corsair AX860i | CaseLabs SM8 | EK Supremacy | UT60 420 | ST30 360 | ST30 240 Gentle Typhoon's and Noctua's and Noiseblocker eLoop's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 1, 2013 you should turn off 2 fans and see how much your temps go up.

Posted August 2, 2013 omg the first few people in this post are ridiculous. you can totally do not use fans on a radiator. ive even used a 120mm rad with no fans on my Corsair H60. My cpu was overclocked to 4.2 GHz(Intel 3570k) and my temps would max out at 78 Celcius under prime 95. (my voltage was like 1.185 or something like that[it was definetly under 1.2]) "If a Lobster is a fish because it moves by jumping, then a kangaroo is a bird" - Admiral Paulo de Castro Moreira da Silva "There is nothing more difficult than fixing something that isn't all the way broken yet." - Author Unknown Spoiler Intel Core i7-3960X @ 4.6 GHz - Asus P9X79WS/IPMI - 12GB DDR3-1600 quad-channel - EVGA GTX 1080ti SC - Fractal Design Define R5 - 500GB Crucial MX200 - NH-D15 - Logitech G710+ - Mionix Naos 7000 - Sennheiser PC350 w/Topping VX-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
