      Choosing your own soft tube, compression fittings and rad and pump/res and block, would be an extra 100-200 dollars over buying a gpu aio from nzxt.
      Pre blocked cards with aios only exist for gpus that are flagship or just under flagship, so we’re talking about 2000 dollar graphics cards, if you are making that purchase based off saving 100 bucks that you really really need, you are unreasonable, you should not be PC watercooling.
      You can also get pre made soft tube kits from Corsair or EK that would be even cheaper than doing your own. In terms of danger,
      The only danger comes from installing the block on the gpu and removing the cooler. You still have to do that on an aio, and you take that risk for a shitty result. You get a pump you can’t switch out, or even turn down the speed for. You can’t maintain an aio at all, you can’t refill it easily, you can’t expand your loop or change its position or change the fluid. So not sure how a real loop is harder to maintain it’s actually way easier. You don’t do maintenance in a gpu aio you just throw it out when the shit asutek pump goes or the fluid level drops and it stops cooling properly.

    EVGA stands behind their products. I have a friend who bricked three separate EVGA 3080 Ti cards playing New World and every single time she had no issues with the RMA. EVGA even shipped off the replacement cards before receiving the damaged units from her. EVGA wasn't even at fault for the problems with her card. This was an issue for many new world players who had 3080 Ti cards regardless of who manufactured them but EVGA didn't hassle her one bit. They just put their customer first and took care of her.

      The Kraken G12 still exists. You can attach any Asetek AIO that has the Asetek mounting system - Including this EVGA one, per 9:30.
      (Control is a bit of an issue - the NZXT ones have a liquid temp sensor in the current gen, which is great except you NEED their software running for it all to work properly. I like dumber AIOs with separate pump and fan control and have had good results with CPU AIOs and my EVGA Hybrid by taping a Corsair Commander Pro temp sensor to the inlet (hot) radiator tank and using that to drive fans.)

    @MrGrimsmith ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I'm with you on the cable side of things, it's one of the reasons I hate RGB. Different reason though, fewer cables makes for less disruption to airflow, means I can get the fans running slower for the same efficiency so the whole system becomes quieter. Thought on the fan shape - if you 3D print a shroud for the fans you should be able to increase the efficiency and remove the gaps. Could be an interesting experiment to demonstrate what difference it makes. I mean, you could also make one from cardboard to be fair but it wouldn't be as cool :)
    Rather than a screen on a pump top though I'd really like a data feed off it that I can move to an external display. Then again, I run solid case sides for noise isolation so a screen *inside* doesn't do me much good...

    In the digital control of model trains, a single 12V DC power source is used, which is the train track, for several units of locomotives running at different speeds or stopping them. This is achieved by means of simple decoders that receive exclusive signals through the only common line of power. This system could eliminate the problem of cable management and the danger of excessive power consumption on some pins of the motherboard in PC desks.

    I feel you on Corsair. Great RGB fans and coolers, but I have 10 Corsair RBG fans and H150i Elite Capellix pump header. That's 22 cables just for those parts. Then there is the Commander Core that controls 6 of the fans (fan speed and RGB), a Lighting Node Pro (RGB controller for 4 fans) and the fan hub that came with the 5000D Airflow case. Also, it is unfortunate that Corsair devices depend entirely on the iCue software for any custom settings. Without the software, it goes with hardware defaults. Then again, this does protect the hardware from getting bricked by bugged settings.

    Well actually you could! An open source fan/RGB software that accepts proprietary profiles as made by the manufacturers yet still consolidates all these different brands into one single control suite. You can have set profiles that function per brand, or have a singular profile that controls everything. Perhaps also add adaptive profiles that only spin up the most relevent fans for certain hardware (radiator fans for CPU, or a side panel aimed at your GPU) that way not all fans respond to one parts heat increase.

Looking at a sideways NZXT logo, or at first an upside-down NZXT logo made me realize that I really need to expedite my AIO return. Literally a week after I washed my hands of this atrocity, the new version of this product appeared magically overnight subtly advertising the orientation changing ability of the illuminated logo on the pump. The funny thing is that I told NZXT about this directly through customer support, and they said to rely on third party product returns to remedy the situation.
