EKWB fluid gaming a bit misleading?

[Simon771]

So I got email with this picture:

 

I think that's a bit misleading ... That seems like X99 motherboard with 2 GPUs.

Now imagine you have 2x GTX 1080 Ti and i7 6950x or something like that. Total power draw can be up to 700W if not even more, and on that picture is only single 240mm radiator. 

I had problems with 240mm rad when using i7 4790k and GTX 1070 alone, so I don't see how can single 240mm rad cool down 2x GPUs and CPU.

It's the example don't take it seriously

They're also not plugged in and it has no RAM, so.....

how did you have problems with a i7 4790k and GTX 1070 on a 240 rad? I was able to run a 4770k at 4.4Ghz and a 290x at 1200Mhz on a single 240 rad. GPU never hit above 65c. (my trash can CPU can't be cooled when overclocking it hits 85c and is before the GPU in the loop, stupid crap TIM)

 

They also don't sell any of the ALU part separate yet so you can only so 1 CPU and 1 GPU with a 240 rad. ( I am not sure if nickel is ok in a ALU loop)

Misleading or not I want it! I only want to go CPU right now and the 240mm is only $10 more than the kraken x52 here and this looks better IMO. My wallet has taken a pounding recently but...

A single 280 and no pump. How does that work?

Never even mind the lack of pump, Something about that build just looks really ugly, dunno if its the 10 000 Fans cramed in there or the small case, or the tubing flopping all over the place but man for what on paper should be a Sexy AF build that one some how completely misses it.

Yea idk why corsair would design a case with space for 6 fans. They aren't what they used to be. Some things are better soft and floppy.

hahaha oh corsair.. its so you can fit in more RGB  

 

Soft and floppy can help, but when it comes to water flowing equipment I think consensus is on Hard and Rigid.

Now that the system is done I was gonna hard line. Doing 8 blocks would be a hassle. I'd also have to remove the front 360 rad. Not sure I wonna waste more money at the moment. Buying two 10 series cards kinda turned me off buying pc stuff for a while.

The pump is in the power supply basement.

 

The ram and chipset blocks are not needed, and the tubes over the GPU to go to the chipest eww.

There isn't a basement. It's all needed. I just realized this was an old pic. Fixed it. Not as recent though.
