ok i got a pretty decent system
6600k and a 980ti
the 6600k running 70 degress on aio (arctic liquid 240)
and 980ti gets to 72-78 depending on game
i'd like to watercool my system because the palit card i got gets pretty laud some times
like playing ac on ultra 1517p (i know its wierd)
as i sayd i already got a pretty dope aio (38mm)
so would u guys recommend salvaging the rad and making a custom loop
or get a corsair hg10 980 or something like that
id like a cheap solution like salvagin the pump, rad and block from the aio or get a aio for the gfx card

the accelero, there is a couple videos talking about it, is not easy to install but does look promising

however, if still under warranty, possibly will void your warranty

apart form the gpu, you need to be sure you have good airflow in the case and that the cpu is not helping on the noise to make you crazy effort

so consider a cooler for the cpu, one that is more silent, you have a water cooler there but no idea how noisy are the fans

watercool a cpu and gpu, with a custom system on thecehap

i do believe that those words can't go together

you wouldn eed a reservoir, a waterpump, a cpu block and a gpu block, all that should cost at least 400 dollars

it would be cheaper to change the 980ti for a model with more than 1 fan, alot more simple definitively

the palit card got 2 fans and i tried with factory msi and customs fan curve does not get better
but "upgrading" the card to the same card with more fans? i just found a artic accelero hybrid 980ti and it seams to be pretty good. do you know if its any good? + there are also "normal accelero custom cooler that have 3 really big fans

i got ok static airflow
my case is the nzxt phantom 240
got 2 intakes and "3" exaust 1 is just astetik and runs at lowest rpm possible because it steals air for the aio
my cpu cooler itselv is super silent cant barely hear the pump and the fans.. i got the arctic f12 special idk but is it not the standart but the "upgraded" ones and the are pretty silent even at high speed (and i removed the standard fn v2 thats came with the case (they are not pwm and runs at.. idk but my nieghbour can defenetly hear them))
all the noise is from the gpu when the fans spins at the 1800-(max)2000 rpm and its not even hot 72-78 degrees
*me looking at my bank account* idk 100 euro seams fine (i live just above germany and got relatives the cooler can be delivereed to)
is the accelero an option? the waranty is voided (even nvidia would probebly not accept it in the step up program)
i got a custom backplate custom painted shroud (this card has been taken apart even the smalest screws have been out)
*me looking at tekst correkter* "fuck"
sry for gramma english isent my first language
EDIT: think i got the fan courve right
gonna post a screen shot later
