Ive been doing a lot of reading and searching over in the extreme section of the cooling arena to learn about these things. My RBX-64 setup is doing quite well, running 41ºC full load at 2200 mhz which isnt too bad. keeps it below 50ºC no matter my oc which certainly makes me happy, but im thinking of taking the next step and actully putting my water system to work.
Of course, ill be revising my system to accomodate all this. Modding some 2x heatercores for single pass, getting stronger pumps and of course, picking out blocks that will work with pelts efficiantly.
At first i thought, why not look for pelts that fit my size restraints on the rbx, but it seems most are in the 40-50 mm range so i guess that leaves me looking at older amd styled blocks like the Spir@l and maze X.
I see a lot of people using swifttech blocks for the pelts, is there a particular design i should look for?
All the principles make sense to me, of course i would love to try to design a block for pelts that uses some impingement design, of course, maintaining pressure across a 50x50 mm square from a 1/2" inlet would be pretty hard to do. Perhaps a stacked rbx design? two inlets with impingment nozzles and fins for each?
Would LOVE to see what people have done with this. I probably will only pelt my cpu at first, but im getting rads that can handle the load of a pelted gpu as well.
