Hey everyone I am looking into performing a few upgrades to my Threadripper 1950X build over the next few months. One of the big upgrades I am looking into is a custom liquid loop. The case I am using is the Gigabyte AC300W mid tower. I will be upgrading the side panels plastic see through to a tempered glass panel, from a EVGA GTX 1060 SSC 6GB ACX 3.0 to a 1080ti/1180ti depending on if we see the 11th gen, 32GB 2x16GB DDR4 TridentZ RGB 3200Mhz to 64GB 4x16GB sticks. Let me know what you think about liquid cooling? I'd like to stick with a 280mm radiator up front so I can do a push pull configuration. Maybe mount the resivour/pump in the bottom?

I'm in the middle of doing the same stuff.  EK monoblock and pump etc.  I can't wait to get it all put together and OC'd.

Anyway, do you plan on adding more GPUs in the future?  The 850W is plenty of juice for a 1950X and 1 1080ti.  it would do 2 just fine actually...

Also wanted to let you know that I am looking into upgrading my power supply from the 850 watt Thermaltake I have to a 1200 watt Thermaltake and adding in all black cable extensions.

You'll do fine with a 850W unit tbh. There's not much of a point in getting a more powerful unit that you're not going to use.

The problem with my 850 is that it only has a single 8 Pin EPS and no secondary/optional 4/8 Pin EPS for the CPU. The 1200 does, also I'd like to have the extra power if needed. I do plan on SLI-ing my machine in the future. Sorry if the pictures are crappy quality.
