Really foolish question

[SabejiThePirate]

So the compression fittings I bought are to wide to go onto my cpu cooer because they would hit each other. Is there an exstender that I can buy so one of the fittings is above the other?

Just buy a couple new fittings and use those two somewhere else in the loop.

Depending on the block you can't use compression fittings for certain tube sizes no matter what.

I have massive fittings too and used differend angled extensions to fit and "aim" them to the right direction. Couple 45 and 90 degree angles will always come in handy

Thanks I kept looking on performancepc but had no idea what they where called.

another quick question. my motherboard has water cooling integration (ROG Maximus V Formula) but the heatsink is for barbed fittings. is there an adapter to make it work with compression fittings?

You would have to find a compression fitting for the thread size of the integrated block.

That says, i wouldn't bother cooling the VRMs on an intel box. It won't yield much of anything.

I figured it wouldn't do much if anything, just wanted to add it for looks. but having to have different fittings would make it look bad so nothing it is.

And, in the older dayz the Mobo blocks were aluminum. So many didn't use it. Dunno about the newer mobos, been outta WCing for a few years now.
