Hey!

I got asked how I would build a watercooled build for 1440p. Budget 2400-2500. Thought of going something like this

I need help finding a fitting ball valve and a temperature sensor fitting a g1/4".

What kind of case would be recommended? Focus is cool and silent, up to maybe 120€. fitting the big rad in the top and the small one in the back. Should have cable management.

Did you think about going with the new box cooling kit the EKWB has? It's like $300 for everything I would just add anther rad ideal the biggest ones ur case can fit could get a 1080ti then. Also un less the rgb on that mobo is something u want think about the ASRock x370 taichi?  It has the best vrms for a mobo. Also a SATA ssd would be much better for the price then a m.2 could prob get a 500GB 850evo for the price of the 250gb m.2.

The A240G fluid gaming waterloo from ekwb is pretty good only thing I heard bad is it needs anther rad or a bigger rad if doing some high oc and stressing stuff hard it is soft tubbing as well but for the price it's a hell of a deal most loops are 500+ when u need. 130 gpu block 70 cpu the tubbing and rads pump and rez. Also wit the 60 dollas or so to spare u can get a bigger case that will fit bigger rads or anther rad or sometbing also got u 16gb more of ram.

Thank you, but hard tubing looks better for me and the 1080 does just fine.
It is a really nice idea, but just not fitting for what I am into.
With the workload he works with a m.2 or u.2 will definitly be of profit because of the higher speed, a 850 evo won't provide that speed.
I use one myself, so I can say that for sure :)
Still a good idea for most users!

May I know why you grabbed such a big psu? The 32gb ram could be useful though
