Finally got it all together, passed pressure check first try and zero leaks. Temps are substantially more controlled with vr combat flight sim. Used to sit around 70°c/80°c on cpu/gpu (14700k on 360 aio and air cooled 5070 ti). Just ran a quick mission with one of the more demanding modules, didn’t exceed 45/35c on cpu/gpu. Not more stutters, clipping, lags. It just works and is so quiet I can’t hear it in the background. Still need to figure out iCue control with openRGB but so far I’m very happy with the results.

Loop: Alphacool Core LT cpu block and Core gpu block, 250ml res, 2 360x30 and one 360x45 rads.

After asking advice in here (thanks to those who commented), went back and reworked the rad to gpu run for a 3rd time. Had some room to slide the rad inside the case to make dual 45° fittings come out almost perfect (bonus for the stiff hose doubling as a gpu support lol). Was going for an industrial/.mil look for this since I work in that field and the pc is primarily used for combat flight sim. Still on the fence about using the silver cable sleeving to mimic the look of braided stainless lines.

Just waiting on the last order to show up from Titan Rig then this shytshow can commence

Wasn’t happy with the bad angle on the lower rad to gpu on the first try, so took some other fittings and possibly fixed that. Good idea or nah? Also gonna wait until all the lines are ran before doing the cable sleeving that’s in the 1st pic

Feels like it should be in r/shittyfoodporn as well. Msi 5070 ti in an Alphacool Core block
