    Compatibility of D5 Core RAM cooler with DDR5 RDIMM

    I am sorry for resurrecting the thread, but has anything changed in last 1.5 years? I believe Apex/Core line has been introduced since then, I remember seeing only D-Ram line of coolers.

    nVidia 4090 Founders Edition and single slot waterblock (ES?)

    So there are at least two customers. You have demand! Jokes aside, I was forced to use PCI-Express flexible riser to detach the GPU from confines of typical slot placement. My case has 10 total PCI slots, so I was able to mount it below motherboard. Not ideal, but there was no other workaround.

    nVidia 4090 Founders Edition and single slot waterblock (ES?)

    I understand. Well, it's either I have to swap my card for iChill one or unfortunately find different block :( Thank you very much for your help! I really appreciate it.

    Removing cracked/broken tube from Eisbecher D5 plexi top

    These parts are okay, especially the bubble shield! I even have a spare tube, but I do lack end cap. The one you have is better than mine (it has 4 ports, which means I can leave fillport connected permanently), so I will order one. My issue is I can't remove the remnant of the old tube from...

    nVidia 4090 Founders Edition and single slot waterblock (ES?)

    PCI-e bracket - the piece of metal that covers the slot opening in the back of the case, where HDMI and DP outputs are. I actually didn't know if there is proper name for this part in English, and you're calling it I/O bracket, so it's that, I apologize for the confusion. It's a shame it's two...

    nVidia 4090 Founders Edition and single slot waterblock (ES?)

    This is kind of sad. Not gonna lie, I LOVE the design of ES block and its functionality. I'm going to pass on Eiswolf, since I already have functional loop (it's using Aurora block with different terminal anyway, am I right?). The Auora and Core blocks - does any of these clear next PCI-e...

    Removing cracked/broken tube from Eisbecher D5 plexi top

    Thank you for reply, but I bought this set in 2017, and it has been on since then. It's way past any RMA window. At this point it's more of salvage operation :)

    Removing cracked/broken tube from Eisbecher D5 plexi top

    I had a structural failure or a tube reservoir, it cracked most likely due to temperature change. Computer has been under constant load had stable high ~50 deg. C liquid temp for several years 24/7/365, and during CPU upgrade, after powering down the computer it cracked and sheared off without...

    nVidia 4090 Founders Edition and single slot waterblock (ES?)

    Hello! I have workstation motherboard, and I am in dire need of having access to all of the PCI-Express slots. I had my finger firmly over "buy" button for the 4090 ES Reference Design block, until I noticed dreaded "is not compatible with FE". Two questions: 1. Is it complete incompatibility...

    Compatibility of D5 Core RAM cooler with DDR5 RDIMM

    Due to marked components - part of integrated PMIC. These components stick out 2 millimeters above PCB on each side, bringing total thickness over what D-RAM can accommodate - you can't slide the plates further apart.

    Compatibility of D5 Core RAM cooler with DDR5 RDIMM

    Thank you! Do you think it would be possible to mod the coolers, for examply by adding a shim to widen the distance between side plates and thicker thermal pads?

    Compatibility of D5 Core RAM cooler with DDR5 RDIMM

    As in the subject - can I use the D5 DDR5 modules with LRDIMM/RDIMMs (Registered DIMMs, or server memory, they are different from desktop UDIMM modules, and pin-incompatible). The DDR5 RDIMM modules have pretty prominent VRM elements on the center of the module, with thickness of up to 2 mm on...
