Watercooling help

[Wierdbagles]

 

Thank you for helping me out. I would like to water cool a gpu in corsair crystal 460x white, My cpu is already cooled. My plan is to have the inlet and outlet of the radiator at the bottom of the case so I can house the pump, res and drain valve in the Psu shroud. I have tried to get a 360mm radiator pump, res combo but those seem to not exist. The Crappy google power point thing is the loop im planning and the other one is a reference for how much room I have. The cpu is cooled by a 120mm aio cooler I have.  I hope the great minds of the forum can help me.

The only units that have a pump and res integrated into a rad is EKWB's Phoenix or Swiftech's AIO units. They configure them as prefilled units as a plug and go solution.

I want to go hard line. I don't know if the ek phoenix are compatible. Got any other pumps that are realy small. I leave on my computer for realy long so I would have to be reliable.\

 

Thanks anyways.

You would tear apart the Phoenix unit just for parts if you wanted an integrated rad pump and res as it's all standard watercooling connections. As for a small pump a DDC unit with heatsinking would be your best option if you need it to be small.

I would suggest to integrate the CPU into the loop your going to get much better cooling potential compared to a single 120mm AIO.

Would'nt a 360 cooling the gpu and 240 cooling the cpu be ok

A single 360mm would be enough for both a CPU and GPU, more rad space doesn't hurt if your wanting to have dead silent cooling.

Woul'nt the be better off seperate. And I have a nice 240 aio, dont see the need to spend the extra money

No integrating it into a single loop would be more effective. You are isolating the rad space to a single component if you separate it, by combining everything you provide a total of (360+240mm) five 120mm rad spaces between the two for potential cooling.

honesty This is also a little about money too. adding a cpu would add 100 to the build

If your are looking for performance at a cost custom watercooling would not be what I recommend. You would be much better off with an AIO system with one on the CPU and GPU with an adapter bracket like the G12.

It's up to you as it's your money, but for a decent quality custom loop your looking at around a starting price of $500USD for CPU and GPU.

That seems kinda cheep could you help me get something like that. Like I said I leave my computer on for days at a time.

[Wierdbagles]

And hard line.

The easiest would be to get a kit and build on that but if you want hardline your going to need to select your components individually.
