High end AIO system?

[OddsCrazyStuff]

X99 6950X and 3 way SLI Pascal (not sure which yet, as no benchmarks is out).

 

With a custom loop, so do I need 240mm 60mm thick per component, to get a system that dont cook it self while overclocked and somewhat silenced.

Can I get the same result with AIO's? 240mm/280mm/360mm for CPU, 120mm/140mm for each GPU (not sure what is more common of 120mm or 140mm).

 

Also, would all the AIO fit inside a somewhat small case, like the Parvum M1.0, without looking too cluttered/messy?

The best AIO is the 360 EK predator (According to the tests I've seen on Tweaktown with dB and Performance) The 240 predator is also very good. The only problem is that they probably won't fit. Then the h115i from corsair (280mm) is a good choice. Will prob fit and is the third best choice. but that's just IMHO.

What is good is one thing, the other is whether or not there is enough space for the tubing and maybe more impotent, is there enough cooling?

I am cooling a 5820k@4.5GHz and a mildly OCed GTX980Ti with the 360 predator. A 2nd GPU might work in the loop, but that isn't going to be quiet anymore

That works, but that still leaves me with 2 AIOs to fit somewhere.

If I go down this route that is. I'm going through my options.

I don't think that AIOs are a good choice in that case. With that amount of GPUs a real watercooling setup should be the way to go.

The problem with a custom loop, is that I need more space, since GPU AIO's normally have a fan on the GPU as well.

Meaning I need around 240mm per component, depending on radiator and fan.

No! You should have 120mm rad for each component + 120 additional. So a 240+360 will be just fine. The custom loop will be more efficient and cooler compared to AIOs.

The fan on the GPU of AIOs do not help to cool the main heat source on the GPUs.

If I want a jet engine next to me, yeah. But if I want to be able to use a mic, then I need more radiator space and slower fans.

For sure! But how do you want to get more radiato space into the Parvum?

And how should AIOs solve that problem?

AIOs are colder then stock coolers, but it seems that they are loud, so guess that is not an option after all.

I had the EVGA Hybrid for my GTX980Ti and was very pleased. But I switched the fan (connected to the mainboard) and connected the pump to a fan controller (voltage). With that I could run the AIO very quiet. Since single AIOs for each card will consume more space than a 120mm fan would need, you would have to use at least a case with 3x140mm fan mounts (if mounted next to each other).

But that would look crazy with all the tubes...
