Hello!
I'm looking to make my first custom water loop, while also swapping from a mini ATX case to a custom SFF-style case. I barely have room for my GPU and ITX mobo as it is, so my only real option for using a custom water loop is the XT45 50mm radiator with 2 40x10mm fans. Currently, I only plan to use the Eisbear Aurora LT Solo and GPX Pro Solo in the loop.
While I will underclock the 3060 and Ryzen 7 I plan to use, I was wondering if I would be able to keep playing games such as Elden Ring (most demanding game I've played recently), despite the radiator being so much smaller than others typically used? Am I missing something obvious that would make this easier overall/more effective (aside from a different case)?
I know this build shouldn't go beyond 400w TDP, but I don't know how I need to tackle heat dissipation. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!
