i would like an advice when it comes to the custom loop.
- My case of choice is Phanteks NV9.
- Radiators: 2x 420mm UT 60 and 1x 420mm XT45, 60 on top and bottom and 45 on the side (this one is for the consideration based on the question at the bottom of this thread) https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...acool-nexxxos-ut60-full-copper-420mm-radiator https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...acool-nexxxos-xt45-full-copper-420mm-radiator
- CPU block to cool 7800x3D: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/cpu-water-cooling/intel/13886-alphacool-core-1-lt-aurora-acrylic
- GPU block to cool 5080: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/detail/index/sArticle/21870
- Fitting: probably these (this one is for the consideration based on the question at the bottom of this thread) https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...dtube-screw-on-nozzle-g1/4-deep-black-sixpack
- Drain port: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...ol-eiszapfen-2-way-ball-valve-g1/4-deep-black
- Fill port: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/cooling-liquids/accessories/ans-alphacool-apex-fillport-black
- T piece - to add the drain port: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...on-terminal-tee-t-piece-round-g1/4-deep-black
- Flow indicator: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...sfluegel-flow-indicator-black-g1/4-ig-acrylic
- Tubes: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...3/10mm-acrylic-pmma-clear-80cm-set-of-4-320cm
- Cooling liquids: probably 3x? https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...quids/17313-alphacool-ultra-pure-water-1000ml
- Distro: unfortunately, alphacool does not make a 280mm distro with a pump on the backside, so i had to choose this one: https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-quantum-kinetic3-flt-280-d5-pwm-d-rgb-plexi
- Fans: 9x Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF 140 - 3x classic and 6x reverse
- Benidng kit https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...s/sz-alphacool-hardtube-bending-kit-basic-v.2
- Leak testing tool: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...ls/sen-alphacool-leak-testing-tool-incl.-pump
- Spray bottle: https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/...hacool-spray-bottle-core-500ml?number=1022197
- When it comes to the radiators: i would like to choose 2x UT 60 and 1x XT45 as i have mentioned above. However, i dont want push pull on the top and on the bottom it is unreal to have a push pull. Would be 3 fans sufficient for each 60mm rad? I am sure that for 45mm rad, 3 fans will be sufficient.
- When it comes to the fittings: how many will i need? If i count corretly, 2 fittings for each component, so 6 for radiators, 2 for CPU, 2 for GPU, 2 for distro and how many then? 3x for the piece to connec a drain port and 1 for drain port and 1 for fill port? Probably also some 90 degree fittings to ease the pain...
- When it comes to the tubes - i have read somewhere, that it doesnt matter that much to have 13mm or 16mm tubes. What is the truth?
- What else i will need to build this loop?
Many thanks for any advice
