Spiral loops

[Willzy]

I'm looking to build a new pc around December to the new year. When rtx cards have been out for a bit.

I want to go full out and do crazy looking watercooling with hard tubes.

But i'm not sure if doing a spiral loop(coil) will affect the performance of the cooling.

Does any one have some advice .

You can do spirals or loops with hardline but it can be difficult to get the bends consistent. It won't really affect performance at all since your not adding any real restriction but only extending the length of tubing for the loop.

Jay did something similar to this a while back. Think he called it his Symbiot build...?  Anyway, he had waves/curves in his tubing that gave it an organic look. Wasn't quite a spiral, but look it up for details.

And no, (as others said) it won't affect anything. Just make sure the tube isn't crimping/collapsing at each bend

couldn't find anything similair from Jay on his video's about watercooling.

only 1 i could find is from a random presumably Italian person just making the loop and nothing else.
