I set the one running pump to 1.5 almost 2ish, basically at the point where I ceased to hear it. Now I'm monitoring the temperatures at idle and under load. The days have been good so the room temps have been relatively stable. I've noticed a 2 degree increase. My idle sits around 37C and load maxes around 45-46C. I have the GTs at 40% push on the rads now.
I think I have to readjust my expectations. I originally wanted the build to be unnoticeable. Literally not to be able to tell there was a desk running two computers. With 10 fans, 12 if you include the psu's, I'm not sure it's feasible. I will try some foam material in the rear section (space is at a premium back there) and see if the chamber is resonating and amplifiying the noise.
If the frozenq res arrives then I'm going to stick sight that since its paid for and it will feed both systems. If I have any issues with the res in the res combo ill just get a top for them. Now if I have another issue with frozenq that is definitely an option. Then I'll have to figure out what to do with this open space between the two systems though
The power is out at the moment (I'm "typing" this on my phone lol). Sitting next to the desk wishing this was how it sounded when it was on but alas you can't get everything all at once...gotta put in some tinkering time to get where you need to be.
Do you know what's gonna be really fun aka probably the biggest pain? Draining the loops....
So you remember how I said I wasn't going to OC....well I changed my mind at least on the server side UNTIL as I was researching I found that the DG33tl does not overclock...ugh well it's long in the tooth anyway so I guess I'll wait to upgrade that.
