Spent this entire weekend learning how to bend pipes and the past month busy getting all the parts that I needed and plotting the loop. Bending pipes was a mission but quite fun!

Before this I was using the Corsair H80i V2 all in one water loop. During a 3d render using the Arnold renderer for Maya I was hitting 87 degrees Celsius every time without fail.
I have run all the same renders with this custom loop and I am hitting 42 degrees Celsius with a peak of 44 Celsius! This is a monumental improvement! Probably due to the fact that the Raystorm CPU water block covers the entire CPU. The Corsair AIO is compatible with the Ryzen Threadripper but its round and doesn't cover the entire heat spreader! I would say its also due to the massive 360 radiator?

Anyways next up is hopefully some custom white sleeving and eventually fill the rest of the ram slots to run quad channel.
 
Very nice! If you do a custom loop, then cooling the GPU as well is a MUST!
 
Thanks man. Yea I am just trying to find a water block for this GPU. So far I haven't come right.
 
Well this is new. I emailed them about this and they were trying to organise this for me but then never got back to me and now its on their site :D:D:D
