Geeeesh. Then that 3 way SLI 780's. Over a grand in GPUs alone, not including the water cooling block.
Well the total cost of the case was close to $1200 because of radiators mounts as well as shipping to Australia which was around $255
Yeah I thought it was obvious but I guess not.
Out of curiosity, how loud is it with all them fans?
Considering there's so many I'd figure none have to spin very fast thus making it damn near silent.
When the fans are at 100%, it is quiet loud. When the fans are down, the loudest thing are the pumps.
That may be the biggest case I've ever seen... Fantastic loop by the way. Looks clean and sleek. Also, what is the total sum of radiators in there?
Thanks, there's 5 radiators: 2x560, 2x480, 1x360
Holy balls, that's a lot!
How much does one of these cost?
Uhhh I'm guessing like $5k minimum for it all.
I didn't count, but a rough calc puts it around the $8.5k mark
What do you do for a living if you don't mind me asking?
"Honey, they shrunk the OC3D presenter." Honestly I can't wrap my head around the size of that thing - dude looks like a dwarf next to it.
That big ole box... has a case... that's in pieces... That you have to put together yourself....
That's not a case, that's a spaceship.
So nothing too crazy then?
Holy fucking shit those temps.
I need to know this. For science.
Traded a nice used car.
About one assload of money.
Did you buy enough in bulk that you had to pay GST for over $1k or did you get past it?
It was all bought in pieces, as I needed them or as they got released
Those GPU temps aren't actually that uncommon for watercooling. The greater surface area usually reduces it by 20-30C for most cards and you can pretty much overclock as much as the power will take you.
Ah right, well from my experience with my mates card temps it was surprising
By far the most sexy build I have seen on this sub in a while.
Wow. What's up with all these awesome gaming setups as of late?
Wow, looks huge! How many fans are in there?
He (I am assuming) said 23 fans.
Excuse me, I just shit my pants.
What are your voltages and temps like on the 780s and 4930K with all those rads? I'm looking at doing something similar with the new SMA8 in the spring.
Well for the 4930k, I didn't need a whole lot of voltage to make 4.8 stable, think it was 1.38v. I tried for 4.9 and got up to 1.42v with llc on high but still wasn't stable. Temps were fine the whole time, not tipping over 60-65c. The 780's I haven't touched the firmware on them so I just max the over volt in precision x and put power to 110%
Linus' is in some parts less and in some parts more overkill than this one. Linus "only" uses 17 fans
Yeah, but you know what i mean. Was just showing a build video that is almost exactly the same. Just as rediculous lmao.
That and the 900D seems like a cheap piece of plastic compared to anything made by Caselabs.
Yeah but its just as big.
Very nice build sir. i haven't done a custom WC in some time now. Whats the point of having two Reservoirs plumbed like that?
One of the main reasons I did two was to fill up a bit of space, but it also was to make it easier to fill the loop because it needs a lot of liquid. So priming was pretty pain free
Nice setup, care to share the wallpaper? Been looking for something new for eyefinity.
Thanks a lot, it looks amazing up close :D
This is a really awesome build, but it could be a lot better if the GPU and CPU were in separate loops. You're going to have room temperature fluid entering the GPU/CPU system whether you have 3 radiators in series or 100. I can't tell which component the cold fluid hits first, but either way, one of them is receiving hot fluid from the other since they're connected in series with no radiator in between.
Yup, totally agree. Came here to mention this myself.
So much room for activities...
This is one of the sickest rigs i've seen in a long time! Nice work!
Love the rig and I especially love the CaseLabs case, they make the nicest cases I've ever had the pleasure of using.
Dell U2414H. I'm not OP, but I am using one and it's beautiful. Great picture and the bezels are the smallest I have seen.
That case is truly a functional work of industrial art.
That case is ridiculous. Nice setup though!
I hate and love you in equal measure. Very nice rig.
I wish monitors where cheaper here. I'd love to rock 3, but its just not affordable.
I can't wait to hook my Ducky up. Had it for nearly a year but didn't get my main rig in order till recently
Holy shit, the case looks like some mad chemist lab.
Thinnest bezels ive ever seen.,
Glad to finally see somebody else with the Dell U2414H monitors. The bezel is the smallest I have ever seen and the picture quality is great.
Yeah they really are great monitors
Can i recommend you put aleast a case fan inside where the motherboard is? it seems like its not getting cooled.
The whole front radiator pushes air into the case, so it caters for the chipset
All good, not many shots from the front..
This deserves more then one bookmark. Wow. That is all.
I hear you like radiators, can you confirm this?
How well does your 780s scale in three way SLi?
Pretty well. I was running two 780's for a little bit and I would bench around 16-17k on firestrike, and with the third I get around 23.5-24k
How about in actual games? I am about to purchase the third 780 for my Prodigy, and while I am determined on having three cards, the scaling might bother me :)
Ultimately depends on the res you're going to be playing at, in games I can't really tell a difference as two 780's really handle any game with ease. Add a large res though and it can only do so much with the vram available. If your running a large res and expecting a huge improvement, sadly if your hitting the vram limit then getting the third won't help..
No 1440p or 1600p monitor?
Can I get a recommendation on the U2414H's?
Erm, or just get Win 8.1.
Wow, didn't know Windows had that functionality now. Cheers.
You forgot to add your RAM to the loop. To complete the ricer look you need water cooled RAM.
