GPU and CPU water cooler

[Canada EH]

Found this one - ID-COOLING HUNTER DUET Water Cooler

 

Anyone else find a water cooler that does both cpu and gpu?

Id rather just make a custom loop.

I'd go with ekwb any day of the week, they have all aluminum kit's so make sure not to mix in something copper

What do you do, how do you do that, just put Y couplers on each line?

costume loop means that you dont buy a aio but buy the pump, rad, blocks and all the components and then make the loop. there is soft tubing which is easy to build but the tubing but its will usally not hold as long as hardtubing which is harder to build. but looks better and will hold longer. but if you really dont wanna use the kind of money its takes to make you could always buy a kit from ekwb( https://www.ekwb.com/solutions/kits/ ) which is kinda the same but just cheaper because they use aluminium instead of copper

A single AiO with both a CPU and GPU block.

That's interesting, and I say this having at one time run an AiO on my CPU and another on my GPU.

But that's all I can say: It's interesting.

 

I can't really find a compelling reason to want a single AiO to handle both of these components, especially if they have to share a single 240mm radiator.

You won't get much in the way of overclocking headroom like that.

If you want to go with AiO liquid cooling, you're probably best off getting a separate one for each component, if only just to maximize how much radiator space each component is getting.

 

Others have pointed out that a custom loop might be a better option, though I do understand that not everyone is comfortable building a water cooling loop themselves.

So I won't really point that out.

 

Still, this is an interesting product. I don't quite understand who this product is really intended for. But it's still interesting.

Again, my only real concern is that while a single 240mm radiator can be enough for a CPU and GPU to share, it very likely won't be enough if you want to do any amount of overclocking.

EKWB Does this too, albeit with quick disconnects.

Now this I could get behind.

So it already starts off with a bigger radiator, that's good if you want to start off with two components.

It's expandable so you can add more radiators and/or blocks down the line.

Tthe fact that the GPU water-block is a full coverage block is both a good and bad thing: It's better cooling that a hybrid solution but does limit which GPUs you can feasibly connect it to.

 

Still, if you want an all AiO style solution, this seems much better than one by ID-Cooling.

Only problem with the ek phoenix is some cases have clearance problems with the rad,Its a standard size 360 rad but the pump stuck on the end adds a little length to it.So make sure the case supports bigger then a 360 for clearance of the pump.

On the note of a custom loop: You will never get as much performance per dollar out of a custom loop from overclocking when compared to just buying higher spec air cooled components.  Custom loops are mostly for a quieter system and for looking epic, then they do good for overclocking.  I did my custom loop because I thought it was cool, however I could have got ALOT more for my money if I went AIO. (they can cost a ton)

 

I'd go for that ekwb kit if you want to save a bit
