Nice stuff. I like that resevoir of all things haha.

Have you thought about putting an led behind your gpu water block?

Techjesse · Jul 16, 2014

Thanks, LED behind the water block is a great idea

I'll experiment to fine the right color, thanks

Techjesse · Jul 26, 2014

Just got moar parts, a few Single bridges, a triple bridge, XSPC Photon D5 Mounting ring, ect.... :clap:

Now, time to drain the loop

Techjesse · Jul 28, 2014

Hey Guys, I've been busy

After I received the parts (Mostly bridges) I got some measurements. I'll need a 8mm-10mm Dual G1/4" Male / Male Fittings between the GPU Blocks, if I want the older look style on the 2011 Rampage IV Extreme mobo. :thup:

Techjesse · Jul 28, 2014

A little side step from my main build

I removed the x79 from the ST10, tore down my spare rig and installed it in the ST10 for a complete water cooled rig for benching.
i7 4770K, GIGABYTE Z87X-OC mobo, R9 280x's....
I'll bench quadfire first then work myself down to a single card :thup:

Pics: Filled the loop and leak testing, QuadFire

, Up and running :clap:

Techjesse · Jul 28, 2014

QuadFire paid off :clap:

Techjesse · Jul 28, 2014

You gained a new achievement: contribute 500 points to your team

Need Moar lol
I'm glad my fingers don't look like this

Techjesse · Jul 28, 2014

CrossFire Rocks

After I run a single GPU on this i7 4770K it will be time to re-install the X79 i7 3930K into the ST10, man it's a lot of draining and filling the loop.

Techjesse · Jul 29, 2014

Here's something interesting, as you know I'm running the i7 4770K in the ST10 with a full water cooled loop for benches. I did a quick test using OCCT Linpack and here is the results:
Pic 1,Cooling with an AIO
Pic 2, Full Water Cooled loop
WoW 19c - 21c diff

Ambient temps same @ 74f. Yeah, A full water cooling rig ROCKS :clap:
