Water Cooling Regret :/

[LordGabeNisBae]

Sup Peeps,

 

I have begun to hit the watercooling regret round about now....

 

I have a pair of 980ti and a pair of 1080ti GPUs in SLI in a custom loop. I have really begun to start facing the whole impracticality of the whose thing. The temps are bomb though  but I want to moves mt x79 system over to ryzen 7 and that mens undoing everything.... I dont know if I want to redo watercooling. Should I keep the blocks on and deal with the impracticality or just reseat the original coolers and go aircooled again?

 

Watercooling has given me stable:

 

4.9Ghz on i7 3930k + 1500/8000 Gtx 980ti sli

4.5Ghz i7 5960x + 2038/11000 GTX1080ti sli 

 

i have a ryzen 7 1700 with a Asrock taichi board with stable 4.0 Ghz with a NZXT kraken X62 and want to transplant the x79 system onto here and repurpose the x79 as something else or sell it...

 

Should i redo a custom loop or not... pls halp

your choice bro.

you decide if you want to put in the work to redo a custom loop.

 

just FYI, Ryzen is a bad platform to put on water, simply because there are no gains to be had.

you can reach 3.9/4Ghz on air, and 4Ghz on water. no difference.

yeah I know... I have a predator 360 lying around so I coud just bodge that together with the gpus to make a seperate loop... dunno if a 360 rad will be enough though for a pair of 980ti's

it will be enough for sure.

temps might not be uber-low like you get with an overkill loop, but they'll still be very low nonetheless.
