Alphacool Eisbaer extension help

[ChaseDown]

So I'm working on a new build piece by piece. I have got a Sapphire Vega 56 Pulse on the way. And a Alphacool Eisbaer 240mm aio.

 

Now the alphacool aio is expandable and I can hook it up to the Eiswolfe aio for gpu which has a pump too! The problem is the vega card I ordered isn't compatible with any of the Eiswolfe. They have a gpu block for it and I can get the quick disconnect tubes a radiator and the block for around the same price but it wont have the 2nd pump.

 

My concern is whether the Eisbaer aio pump ( dc-lt 2600) will be able to pump for the 2x240mm rads plus the gpu block, and still be quiet and have a normal lifespan.

 

The reason I wanted the Alphacool stuff in general is its expandability and that everything in it is available individually so I can eventually turn this,into a custom loop with clear tubing etc... Without just throwing money away ( reusing the all as parts of the aios in the loop).

 

Thanks for any help!

Dear Alphacool,

 

I was wondering is the CPU block/pump from the Eisbaer LT pump is sufficiently powerful enough for a custom loop that includes:

 

2x 240 mm slim radiator (for example, the nexxxos ST 30)

1x Full cover GPU waterblock

1x CPU block

 

If you have any numbers for example flowrates of a similar configuration that would be much appreciated.

 

Yours Sincerely,

Since the pump power in our Eisbaer is not  powerful enough for an Custom Loop. We recommend to use an 2^ndpump like our Eiswolf GPX Pro for your graphic card to have enough water flow.

Or if you want a full custom loop to go with an Reservoir and a Pump like our VPP755 and an XPX CPU water block.

The VPP755 is strong enough for an custom loop.

 

Have a nice day.

 

 

Basically the Eisbaer LT pump alone is only good for a single block and radiator

Thank you that helps a lot. And it's good to know im not the only who thought of it lol. Guess I'll return my vega 56 pulse and buy a card they have a eiswolf for.
