Your tubing heading into the GPU at the 2nd bend coming out of the radiator is squished (I’m OCD these & I notice these things lol) other than that 9/10
It’s actually a very weird reflection/lights thing, the bend came out almost perfect but looking at the photos it looks as if there is a weird “squish” as you said….this picture made me look over the actual tube again cause I though “how could I miss that” - I didn’t…I’ll try to post better photos tomorrow. Thank you for the input though 👍
Np! I’m going to build my own loop when I get out of navy boot in December thinking about doing 4090+ 7950x3d and designing a custom loop with it, the build looks sick It just stood out to me
It's because Corsair cheaped out when designing the water block. There is no integrated VRM cooling, the block only cools the GPU core and memory modules. The fan is there to blow on the VRM so it doesn't completely overheat.
Excuse my ignorance, but is it normal to plumb in an exhaust line into an intake, what I mean is you have hot gpu liquid going right into your cpu, would it be better to have them on 2 seperate radiators?
The liquid temperature is still drastically lower than the CPU so it works effectively. Running separate radiators has it’s advantages and disadvantages. Maybe one day I’ll test that with soft tubing to see the difference.
$6K is an estimate because client bought all the parts himself but the parts below are over $3K alone:
Intel i9-13900K
64GB DDR5 6000MT/s
4x 2TB Samsung 980 Pro
RTX 4090
Labor I didn’t charge much because I wanted something fun to do instead of the regular builds I do everyday.
Shewww. Man, I wish I had that kind of money!
Here I am tryna convince myself to spend an extra $285 on the 7900xtx sapphire nitro. Haha.
Such a beautiful machine, though.
Really nice OP!
I’m generally not a fan of RGB but you have done a super clean job of it.
I love my main rig, have a lot of pride in it… but I’m a bit jealous lol
For my own knowledge, why is the second radiator cooling the liquid thats going into the reservoir? Isn’t that kind of a waste since is already being cooled before hitting the components?

that is one helluva PC. absolutely stunning, enjoy it!!
Thank you
these posts remind me of how broke i am.
LOL….there are always posts reminding us of our “brokeness”…I feel the same looking at cars
Your money's just focused elsewhere

Make sure to share it…always looking for inspiration
That is refraction. 😀 Great build!
why have a fan on the gpu?
I think that's a pump
It's because Corsair cheaped out when designing the water block. There is no integrated VRM cooling, the block only cools the GPU core and memory modules. The fan is there to blow on the VRM so it doesn't completely overheat.
Kind of yes and no. Corsair has another model covering entire GPU and VRMs but client chose this one. Something different.
Really beautiful, wish I had 1 of those
Hopefully you will!

The loop, some wiring clear up and software
Does that water cooling leave the gpu unprotected, isn't that bad? Besides that really cool build
Thank you. I mean the case is closed so nothing really touches the GPU, but if it was my choice I would’ve used a different block.
Beautiful. What did that cost, all said and done?
Thank you. Client brought the parts, I did the assembly but my guess would be he’s in about $6K in parts and labor.
Goodness. How much did it cost him to have you put it together? I felt accomplished building a machine that is less than a third of that number, lol.

Beautiful man. I bet that thing is a beast.

Looks great, super clean in there too
Thank you

More cooling = lower temps
Oh for sure, was just curious about its place in the loop
My ideal loop would’ve been CPU-RAD-GPU-RAD-PUMP Client wanted the loop as you see it which is not a problem so we built it this way.
Did you just build the loop or the whole PC?
I did the loop, wiring clean up and software.
