Hey guys! Just thought I'd post my hardline + GTX 1080 upgrade. =)
Out with the old. This was my first watercooled GPU. I'll miss it. (It's for sale over in FSFT, if anyone's interested! =)
And in with the new! I kinda expected the higher-wattage 1080 to dump heat into my loop, but it seems both CPU and GPU temperatures are much BETTER than they were before. I've heard that Alphacool GPX block was restrictive. Maybe this full-cover block is helping flow rates? It's a Gigabyte block, I think, at least they don't say if it's made by someone else.
Dem ML140s tho:
Still gotta debubble the res. Should I go red with the coolant or leave it clear?
