GTX 560Ti SLi watercooled + Cosair 800D case (April 2011)

[chilldog1234567890]

how much did that the whole water cool setup cost you and where did you buy them from ?

[goonON24s]

love the build. super clean, and the black theme is awesome. you should try purchasing some backplates for ur video cards to give them a cleaner look and tie them in nicer with the black theme of ur rig

[lavinhthuy]

@goonON24s Not going for the backplates yet, but thanks for the advice.

[digitaltactics]

@goonON24s backplates dont do shit i like to see what i paid for fuck covering them up :)

[goonON24s]

@digitaltactics well if u like to see an ugly ass pcb and a bunch of solder points then be my guest and dont install backplates. but i actually have taste in building computers and i love a clean interior and gpu backplates do just that. also like you, i like to see what i paid for, and paying $500+ for graphics cards means i shouldnt have to be staring a pcb that doesnt even match anything else in the entire rig, except maybe the back of the mobo.

[sajee232]

is it possible to order the parts to allow it for a gtx 590?

[connorman5511]

LOOK AT THAT KINK! D:

straighten that out man, seeing that brings sheer terror to my heart

[SabertoothX58]

Not to be a dick but I don't think you need two pumps cause those are pretty powerful and decent enough for that type of loop :)

[graffix3001]

Sweet looking build you have there. Have you thought about getting the bitspower dress up kits for the pumps?

[RealFan]

Do you need to use anti-vibration material between the dual D5 top and the case? What are you using between the two acrylic pieces?

[BigH3017]

why did you go for 2 pumps, those pumps are plenty strong on their own

[Itechnohead]

Can anyone comment, I couldn't find gpu block for my twin 560 ti direct cu2 from Asus. Is it since its a low-end card so no one make cooling blocks ?

Tried couple of website like xspc , performance pc , danger den etc, if any body have experience in fluting 560 ti direct cu 2 can comment, thanks in advance

[MYMAnarchy]

Vietnamese !!! Yeah xD

[Itechnohead]

Could u plas tell me whether your video card is Asus branded 560 to direct 2 , since I have 2 cards running in SLI. I could get video card in any website, since I'm from india, it cost quite a bit to import ( 100% duties). I want to be quite sure , Could u pls tell be were u for those cooling block for 560's . Also confused between swiftest and koolance, both cost almost the same and don't know which one to buy.

[lavinhthuy]

@Itechnohead My both video cards are EVGA branded. I got the GPU blocks from FrozenCPU website.

[lavinhthuy]

As of today Dec 20, 2011. It's been 8 months now and my machine is still running good without changing the distill water or any kind of maintenance.

[SrtRacerBoy]

@lavinhthuy same with my cooling system, until i took the water-blocks apart, my coolant was gelling up inside them. are you just running distilled water? no additives?

[lavinhthuy]

@SrtRacerBoy I'm running distilled water and silver coil. It's been 9 months now.

[Raymond6494]

Good job nice build

[lavinhthuy]

@Raymond6494

thanks

[pchelp7]

Would you be able to run this on a 650watt psu?

[lavinhthuy]

@pchelp7 I'd rather use any 650+ to be safe side.

[itstehpwn]

i have a question sorry if i sound like a moron but i dont know a lot about the water cooling... im getting primoflex pro when you take off the toobs to put new ones on the water the water doesnt go all over the place does it because that would suck. lol and is the removal of tubes and whatnot difficult?

[MetalGonza15]

oh my fucking god BOLUDO ESO SALE COMO 50.000 MIL PESOS!!!!!!! :/

[krattlusker]

Any idea if those waterblocks fit the Direct CU TOP 560ti cards?

[lavinhthuy]

@krattlusker I don't have any idea. Sorry.

[Smarterthandumber]

How much did that cost ya?

[baradspogi]

where can i buy the water block? i have 560 ti from nvidia

[AsianPerson3]

LMFAO YOU blew the cash for WC 560s? HAHAHAHAHAH!

[kaderekusen]

ahhhh sillence wery nice :D

[001defytheordinary]

your running an ax850?

[lavinhthuy]

@001defytheordinary yes

[troytomsun1992]

i hate scrubs who dont talk in there videos. dont put it up if your not going to explain your setup

[christopher4636]

Nice setup. What setting do you run the pumps at? I can't quite make it out in the video...

[lavinhthuy]

@christopher4636 speed 5.

[94Reventon]

2 MCP655's? isn't that for much ?

[pointblack1000]

if i were you, i would use some anti-vibration grommets underneath the pumps to avoid this vibration noise in the beginning. But still very clean and good build :)

[hdaniels06]

very nice build mate :)

[rx10]

It is funny how, you would have the exact same water flow with 1 pump.... think about it..... same speed.... same pressure... not even kidding

[Jolinator]

@rx10 redundency

[rx10]

@Jolinator yup

[JaCieKochams2]

why do you have two pumps is it necessary

[FedoraFTW]

does it display your temp on the little screen on the bottom of the MB?

[EXTREMEBLADE]

Looks good? I'm also wondering how much improvement you notice from pumps, honest question. Also, I want those waterblocks, what are they called? did you need an adadpter for the block or....I want to do the same but just for my gpus

[MrTc800]

Do those fans pull fresh air into the case or push air outside of it?

[OpiumWarz]

your case is too big o_0?

[MrRlabrador]

under the PC parts you put HDD: ____ SSD lol, its not a Hard disk drive if its a solid state drive. Sexy case though, I'm looking into getting me a nice fan controller like yours.

[JogiBaboo95]

Where's the sound gone? ;)

[ZergCelebrate]

The most beauitiful pc I have EVER seen!!!

[TheAnonymousGreek]

OMG YOUR PC IS EXACLY LIKE MY!!! exept without water cooling haha

[bdkaka]

sexy as hell!!!

[MegaJ0sh]

the only thing i would change is a 90 degree fitting on the bottom GPU, as the tube looks like it is kinking pretty bad....

[lavinhthuy]

@MegaJ0sh Not a kink there. I know video angel looks like kink, but it's not.

[bdwduck21]

nice rig man but what are your temps

[lavinhthuy]

@bdwduck21 Temps are pretty cool:

Idle:  GPUs = 32ºC ---- CPU = 40ºC

Load: GPUs = 42ºC ---- CPU = 50ºC

Ambient temp around 24-25ºC.

[TonyKartDriver]

How much did it cost?

[Doomshine72]

Cool le pc jaimerais bien etre capable de monter le watercooling mais on ma jamais apris, sinon tu dois forcément parler francais kan j'ai lu home depot lol.

[soda480]

nice build - looks like mine --- off the wall question - but what size screws did you use to mount the bitspower dual d5 pump to your case?

[lavinhthuy]

@soda480 wow.... so close to yours. I don't know what size screws are. I used the "same size" screws came with the package, but I got the screws longer from Home Depot.

[mue88]

why 2 pumps? I'm pretty sure those pumps are good for 20ft you would probably see a gain in LPM if the pumps were opposite sides of the loop from each other.

Nice build man :)

[lavinhthuy]

@mue88 I like extra pump for redundancy and I may add more blocks in future... Thanks.

[barf2645]

awesome build

those liquid cooled 560s look great

[changestyleman]

i hope the case will not became an insane acquarium ;)

However good system.... my it's better muahhahahah!!!

Don't Worry!! :D

[MrGrandDragon]

Quick question.

How many fans do you have connect direct to the Mother Board?

And how many fans do you have connected to the fan controller?

I am going to use two AP-15's in my rig and connect them to a 2 ch fan controller. Are the fans 3pin?

Also does the GTX 560 connect with a 8pin and 6pin PCI-E power?

thnx

[lavinhthuy]

@MrGrandDragon All the fans are 3pin. No fans connect to motherboard, 7 fans connect to the fan controller (3 fans on the radiator was soldier in parallel). The GTX560 uses 6-pin and 6-pin power cable.

[MrGrandDragon]

I would remove the stickers, although that would void the warranty :)

[lavinhthuy]

@MrGrandDragon stickers on the GPU? nah, I left there for the warranty purpose.

[desipilla]

Sweet rig! Do you plan on overclocking cpu? if so make a overclocking tutorial video! it would be a first on youtube!

[lavinhthuy]

@desipilla Thanks. CPU overclocked at 4.4GHz.. Overclocking was done easily in BIOS setting, just set the "Multiplier" to specific number you want. In this case, I set to 44.

[desipilla]

@lavinhthuy thats it? nothing else just multiplier up to 44? thats awesome! thanks, I'll probably try it out soon myself...

[pjstp20]

Very sweet setup
