I change out cards on my rig often when benching and a couple cards are water cooled. Was wondering if they make quick disconnect fittings that will work with gpu cooling setup? That way I do not have to drain system every time I want to swap cards.
Hardass, you are using this on a bench and not a case, right? If so, you also might want to look at using 2 of these Eheim Double Tap Connector Valve kits. They are kind of long, so it would be hard to use them in a case, but those use ball valves on it, which are totally non-restrictive. I knew about these from getting them with my Eheim cannster filters for my fish tanks. BTW, those are sized for 1/2" tubing.
Thanks, but we need to remember when running SLI I need to be able to connect the 2 cards together. A advantage I have is running the Classified 759 I can use the 1st and 3rd slots which gives me more room in between cards.
I don't understand how that creates a problem Chuck
just connect the cards together with 2 SLI fittings (in parallel), and then connect the whole VGA section (both cards) to the loop with the quick disconnects.
I did this with 2x 4870x2 cards and it worked beautifully
None of those actually connect to the blocks, they are all compression/barb fittings. So the QD is mid tube. It would work for OP's use, but you would have a length of hose off either side of the GPU block.
