Thanks Henrik, Mine seems to be working well with just a single 280 eisbaer extreme at the moment, I've seen about 80C once when using freecad on ubuntu. I think that's just a software issue though, the same operation on fusion 360 hardly impacted the CPU temp. The XPX pro block gives plenty of...

I assumed that was the case, it's a shame the connections are not on the top.

After success in water cooling my CPU with an external eisbaer extreme, I'm wondering whether do to the same with my GPU (Gainward 4090 Phantom). The GPU is huge, and I'm limited to only be able to fit one in my chassis. The issue that I have is that chassis is narrow, and the GPU only fits...

Gave it a good shake and that seems to have done it. CPU temps under load are down from 95 - 97C to <55C.

Okay, fixed that problem by running the fans and pump from same pwm. However I only seem to be able to get adequate cooling with the radiator horizontal, when vertical with the reservoir at the bottom, the cooling is significantly worse - I assume there must be air in the system, any idea how...

Just fitted the radiator, I don't have a spare port on the motherboard for the 2-cable PWM lead (I think for the pump speed) - any is there anything else I can do to control this? I've tried running without it connected and the cpu temps are really high. Thanks.

Okay, understood, will see how quickly I can get the kit in the UK. Thanks for the help.

Is that's the case if I purchase just the eisbaer extreme radiator and not the complete kit? and the XPX Pro contains the required bracket for the sTR5 socket? Now for the wierd question, is it better to buy directly from you or a UK based reseller of your products? As this is a company...

@Eddy Could I just check the following shopping list before I place an order: 1 x Alphacool Eisbaer Extreme Liquid Cooler Core 280 - Black Edition 1 x Alphacool Eisblock XPX Pro 1U 2 x Alphacool Eisbar GPX extension set (hose and connections) 1 x Alphacool Tec Protect 2 Clear 1000ml 1 x Phobya...

okay thanks

My aim is just to stop the CPU from being thermally throttled, with the air heat-sink the current temp goes up to 97/98C - before the power seems to be reduced. I just wanted to make sure that the block/pipe work will not be impacted adversely if the cpu temp. is quite high.

Hi Eddy that's great thanks, I don't have plans to liquid cool the GPU yet, just trying to "future-proof" How does that work if you add fans on both sides of the radiator? So would an Eisbaer Extreme with 2 extra 140mm fans be sufficient for the processor alone in "silent" mode? I assume...

Thanks Eddy, i'll build a system up and see which is better for my purpose (either an Eiswand 360, or an Extreme 280). Do you know what the maximum cooling would be? I.e. could I connect to a 350W cpu and a 4090 gpu? I'm just thinking about future compatibility. Finally, how do things like...

Hi Eddy, Isn't the eisbaer extreme fitted with an XPX cooler rather than an XPX Pro? Other than that, this system looks perfect, the extension pipes should be long enough if I replace both the ones on the block and the radiator. Thanks again.

Just no space inside the chassis to mount a radiator at all, does the block on the eisbaer extreme completely cover the threadripper pro? It looks too small (but could just be a dodgy photo). Also, can you purchase extension pipes with quick releases on each end? That would be ideal.
