    I'd love to see another video like this with a CPU included in the loop. From what I understand (and I could definitely be wrong, so if so please correct me) most people who do custom watercooling don't have separate loops for their CPU and GPU. I imagine most people who own this card pair it with a high-end CPU that's gonna dump another 100 watts or so into the loop, or more if you're overclocking, which makes me think the sweet spot is probably closer to 280mm or 360mm worth of rad, as opposed to 240.

Delta is nog 2c and cpu top temp dropped 5c, because of good headpressure.

  • @TiberiusMoon
    @TiberiusMoon 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Fastest flow rate on the pump is not always best as it may not transfer heat as effectively in a low flow friction loop.
    This is also why the two 120 rads they tested were identical because the water had little time to transfer out of the loop.

    • @Tom--Ace
      @Tom--Ace 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not true, I tested this extensively in my system and its false.
      Fast flow rate results in better temperatures overall every time, HOWEVER, slower flow rate increases delta between temps throughout the loop (I see as much as 8c difference between thermal probes after the GPU and after my radiator in my case) so depending on where you set up your thermal probes, you may think you're getting better temps but all you're seeing is a higher delta throughout the loop.
      Overall, running a pump faster always has a positive effect, albeit it's usually not a very large one past a certain point (depending on your loop and flow) and not worth it considering the noise
      I also found the advice that "loop order doesn't matter" complete BS in my small form factor build which reaches coolant temps of up to 50c. In that environment, delta can be as high as 8c as stated, so it's much better to have the CPU right after the radiator (CPU temps are more critical) and definitely not having the CPU after GPU
