GPU AIO

[stephen]

Hi all,
I am taking apart my old custom loop and have a 4070 Ti here. I have 3d printed a modcase evo and I want to make a build using two serviceable AIOs instead of a fully custom loop (as an experiment). So I was thinking about buying two eisbaer extreme's and using one for the GPU since it already has a block.

I want to purchase this AIO:

11594 Alphacool Eisbaer Extreme liquid CPU cooler 280 - black edition

Revolutionise your system with the All in One that changes everything. The Alphacool Eisbaer Extreme is stronger, more beautiful and quieter than anything you've seen before in the AiO water cooling market. Eisblock XPX- Freedom and...

And purchase this cable:

ROH Alphacool Eisbaer GPX Extension Set (hose and connections)

Alphacool Eisbaer GPX Extension Set! For your water cooling

shop.alphacool.com

to make a "custom" GPU AIO. Seems the easiest solution since my case perfectly fits two 280MM radiators.

Would such a thing work? And can I top the AIOs off with Tec Protect 2?

The way you’re planning to do it would work just fine. However, what I generally recommend is to completely replace the coolant instead of just topping it off. One 1L bottle will be more than enough. The Eisbaer Extreme contains a slightly different type of coolant, so it’s best not to mix it if it can be avoided.

Did I pick out the correct cables? I just need to connect to the quick release connectors of the AIO and it needs to terminate into the G1/4 connectors on my GPU.

With the extension sets, there are basically four different versions that vary by straight or angled fittings and also by visual design. The quick-release fittings may also look slightly different, but they are fundamentally compatible with each other. So there's nothing special you need to worry about—no concerns there.

I run a setup with 2 Eisbaer Extreme 280 connected up in one loop for my CPU - I have been very happy with this setup so far, nearly 4 years in!
