[Build Log] Project Inkling - In Win

[Tekred]

​

First i would like to welcome a new sponsor, Thank you Bitspower for supporting watercooling

With that being said, the build is together with the Enermax Liqtech 360 for cooling so I can test and get some benchmark scores. I painted the gpu and backplate, as well as the case, case feet, and pci covers. Took some pics to show the current state. Still need to make a bottom fan shroud and a few other things, as well as installing a custom loop. As far as the settings, I currently have the 1950x stable at 4.1 with a voltage of 1.43125. Memory is at 3200Mhz. I currently have 3 Samsung 970 EVO 250gb NMVe M.2 drives in RAID 0 as my boot drive. I must say I am very impressed with the read and write speed. The Cinebench score is after a few runs to test stability but as you can see my highest score was 3492. If there any other benchmarks you guys would like to see let me know

Really like the build. Something you don't see every day.

And all this NVMe talk really makes me want to go and get at least 1 drive.

Thanks and yeah I haven't seen another build like this, can't wait to get it finished, just waiting on parts. And most nmve m.2 drives are no different than sata 3 so watch out. The Samsung 970 evo or pro though I would highly recommend. If you don't care about lightning fast boot times I would recommend at least 2 in raid 0 as you can see in my post the read and write speeds are insane, I've never seen speeds that high

Hello everyone,
Sorry I haven't updated this recently, I have posted several updates on my build log on LTT https://linustechtips.com/main/forum/3-build-logs/. if you guys want to see the progress I will be keeping that build log updated. I will update this log once I have it finished and I am able to use it rather than my phone. Here is a few pics in its current state, I am testing the lighting to make sure everything is hooked up.

Leak testing it and added dye so I could see leaks better. Ran it for a few hours and no leaks. Will be draining it and adding final coolant amd waiting on one last piece that will be here tomorrow then I can take final photos

Leak test was good, flushed the loop and add the pastel coolant. Will be taking final photos tomorrow but just wanted to give everyone a sneak peak
