i like the idea of water cooling but seems pointless. what i see indicates air cooling is more effective and cheaper.

is there really much of a noise difference?

I have two machines where I'm cooling the CPU in a passive way. I just have a massive heatsink on them. There is no CPU fan, just some case fans. Seems to work fine.

It will be quieter but you can get high end fans that are whisper quiet too. Water cooling used to be for extreme overclocking, not sure if that’s still the case.

custom loop is installed and runs with no issues 180000000

ordered a new 1000w psu bc my new 900 was defective (tested my old 700w one to make sure the psu was at fault)

took about 6 hours to install the loop, next time i do it will be much faster im guessing

timespy gpu score - 23,165 NEW RECORD

average 4070ti = 22,807

LMAO a 4070ti costs like 300 dollars more than my 450 6900xt. FUCK nvidia.

how did i boost my score? maxed out my pump speed, updated mobo bios to newest version, turned OFF amd optimized tessellation in adrenalin (weird, i know)

basically the aorus xtreme is the GOAT radeon card. gpu clock boosts to 2750 thanks to unlocked xtxh chip. 180000
