I'm thinking of a new build. But want to sanity check what I am thinking of doing.
I have done a quick mock up for illustration, below. Imagine that there are some waterblocks on the gpu and cpu and soft tubing connecting them (I'm not a sketchup whizz )
Contents:
2 x 240mm rads
1 x 980ti
1 x i7 cpu
1 x D5 photon res/pump
4 x 'fans'
and
1 x 750w (?) psu with the case ripped off and the fan removed
The idea is that the airflow from the two rads coming in through the front (left of picture) which passes over the entire motherboard hitting the naked psu before being pulled out of the back rad.
Is this just crazyness?
or is there a psu out there that has my name on it? searching for 'passive' psu is a waste of time. What I really need to search for is 'psu that will tolerate having its cooling coming from an extrernal source' or something close to.
Any expert opinions greatly welcomed.
