gpu water cooling

[CatXice]

i have a rx 480 and i was think about water cooling it to bring the temps down but i dont know if i can as i dont know how the fan on the rad will work ie were i would plug it in.

i was going to use the gpu water cooling block from nzxt with a single rad aio cooler from corsiar.

i have the asus prime z270-p MB

So you will be spending roughly $80 for the NZXT G10 and the H60?

 

I dont think its worth it...

Yes they will work...

 

Though people are saying you are going to have to use a power tool to mod the bracket of the G10 or something.

To the system fan header or if you have another cpu fan header, there you can set a custom curve on the bios

You should be able to, and you should get a pwm fan

Basically if you want automatic control of the speed of the fans get a pwm fan

Meaning it changes rpm if your parts get hotter or colder

how would the system "know" to use gpu temp as the dependent variable?

its not the gpu temp its just the system wide temp

 

Thats why I said you can also set a custom curve.
