@@CopyNinjaDave Yooo Congrats! And yes I do. The tubes cool off very quickly, so keep that in mind. I recommend bending them by hand without using the bending tool. Jay was definitely right on that one. It cools way to quickly, you have to be fast. Buy a good amount of extra tubing. And for your first loop with hard tubes, stick to a single bend and spend extra on some fittings. Most of the difficulties were with just the bends with the tubes. Flush them well as too!!! (I got some bits of plastic in my loop due to not flushing enough after cutting and prepping the tubes, was a pain to clean out) His guide video is spot on. But don’t expect it to be that easy, he is a pro after all. Be prepared to make some mistakes and for your rig to be down for a few days. Take your time! Just realized I spelled and worded things terribly, must've been half asleep when typing this....

This is a very well done video. As always, Jay is informative and concise with his guide. Corsair providing an all in one kit makes this a LOT less painful than it could be. I just built my Corsair themed system and have been contemplating Watercooling. EK, although lavish, doesn't hold your hand like Corsair. That makes it far more daunting for a new builder. My R9 5900x and 3080 Ti FE pump out an immense amount of heat, so water seems to be on the horizon. Corsair, for obvious reasons, will be the kit that I choose once comfortable with the financial aspect of this. Make no mistake, this is likely more expensive than many of your system components. Make sure that it's what you want, how you want and with the parts you want before buying things. This has the potential to nickel and dime you into the poor house. Corsair's Configurator is a godsend.

Just to confirm what you said about the temperature difference from the GPU to the CPU. Done here more than once, with 3 radiators systems, and calibrated temperature sensors at every inlet and outlet from CPU, GPU and radiators. Maximum I had, with a 3090 at full load, was 2C higher at the output than at the input. I usually do GPU to top radiator as exhaust, then CPU because more often than not, makes easier to link to the next radiator, also my use the CPU barely breaks a sweat.

Great Vid jay! I got into custom liquid cooling watching your vids. I love spending hundreds of dollars on fittings, rads and more stuff...LOL My final loop...EK P480mm rad, Alphacool Core 1 and the EK Quantum Red Devil 7900 xtx gpu block. The block more than does the job, it literally cut my temps more than I expected. 7900 xtx air cooled, temps were 44-45c. With the EK block...temps 22c, 1 or 2c in either way. I have to admit, I went from the Corsair XD5 pump to the GPU to the CPU then goes to the EK P480 rad and as you like to say, "loop order does not matter." You are correct sir!!! I thought I might have to get another rad in the loop, come to find out, it is not needed.

Why does nobody ever talk about cooling the system using the water temp instead of component temp? I mean, Jay briefly talks about the temp sensor here, but them completes the build and there's no mention of it afterwards. The Corsair Hydro stuff has become really popular recently, but still everybody seems to ignore the temp sensor in the XD5. Does everybody just install their XD5 and just go back to the old way of setting fan curves based on CPU and GPU temps? Or is it just the popular KZbinrs who ignore liquid temp sensors?

This is the most underrated comment. I just built a Hydro X build and nowhere on you tube that I’ve seen does anyone go into coolant temp and how best to control it. This is important because the maximum coolant temp on this D5 pump is 60C and nobody mentions it.
@JoeBob795692 жыл бұрын
@@andydbedford Yea, the only person I've seen talking about a temp sensor is Optimum Tech. I ended up getting into temp sensors around the time I wrote the comment above, because I was asking on Reddit how people deal with their fans ramping up every time the CPU spikes up to 60-70°C for a few seconds. It was the first time I'd heard about temp sensors for a loop and it instantly made perfect sense. I've got one of these pumps now (and also a second temp sensor in my radiator using a commander Pro). I used iCUE for a week or so, but then I moved to Argus Monitor instead, because iCUE wasn't great for min/max water temps, and it didn't show my other mobo fans. My water temps generally range from about 23-40°C, and I think of 40°C as the maximum, but I suppose it depends on your ambient temp, and where you live, and your setup, etc.. It makes a lot more sense using the water temp once you get it all set up.
@andydbedford2 жыл бұрын
@@JoeBob79569 Mate your an absolute legend, this is specifically what I needed to know I am using the commander pro, as im using all Corsair SP120 rgb fans on a 360 rad and 240 rad, and I am going by coolant temp when considering pump and fan speed. The gpu and cpu temps im not worried about as my new loop has literally halved my gpu temps on air from idle at 50c to 25c +/- 1-2C and my cpu dropped about 10C going form a 360 AIO, under load the cpu gets 65c and gpu around 47c What freaked me out is the water temperature hit 40c in a 20 c room, but i did not realise see my fans where at 800rpm and my pump was on 50% about 2000 rpm, when in reality the fans needed to be on at least 1000R RPM and the pump at 60% around the 2800 mark to keep the water temp around 37c. Thank you so much for your reply, this is my first ever custom loop and what you said makes 100% sense.
@JoeBob795692 жыл бұрын
@@andydbedford Yea, it does take a while to wrap your head around some of the concepts, especially that the water temp generally doesn't change a lot compared to the temperature of your CPU/GPU. When I started watercooling a few years ago I never really thought about it, but somewhere in the back of my mind I assumed that the water temps would be the same as the components, which of course isn't the case. The way I think about it nowadays is that the water moves so fast in a loop that that it takes a "little bit" of the CPU/GPU temp with it as it flies through the blocks; so in one second you might have 10 "chunks" of water taking 2°C each with them, which would add up to 20°C. Another interesting concept is the pump speed. If it's too slow then your components obviously won't get cooled enough, but if it's too fast then the water doesn't have enough time in the radiators to cool down. Of course this depends on how many radiators you have, and how many components you are cooling, but generally you need to find the sweet spot for your system, between noise and pump speed, fan speed, and component temps. There's quite a few variables there! Probably the best way to do it is to run a benchmark and leave it running with the fans close to max speed, and the pump at maybe 80% and then see what your temps are like when everything equalises. And then vary your pump and fan speeds, and try to get it as quiet as possible at an acceptable temperature. But the important thing when doing this is to give the water temperature a chance to equalise again after making a change to the pump speed. Like, if you change the speed you will probably see an immediate change in the water temp, but it will likely drift up or down again after a few minutes.

Short answer is: no, it doesn't matter. Longer answer: invest in good fans, good radiators, good thermal paste, a good case model, good waterblocks and finally a good pump. Hard tubes are mostly for aesthetic and it would be hard to prove otherwise even with brass tubes since the results would not be consistent for custom builds in general. And even if somene made the effort of doing benchmarks by just swapping the tubes, the chances that it would matter in terms of thermal performances would probably be non-existent.

I'm planing to use the Aorus 4080 Waterforce (without the radiator) with it, to save the mod of my graphic card... I'm just wondering, how long the distance can be between the pump/radiator and CPU block...

Jay, How Tf did you do a push setup on the radiator on the top? I had to fight with my dual EPS cables since it hits the fan edge. I eventually gave up and did a pull exhaust setup on the top. We got the same case that you demonstrated.

Can anyone clarify the pieces needed to replicate the connection at the top of the reservoir. Since this is a Corsair sponsored build, I believe it's 2 - 90 rotary adaptors, but it's not very clear how those 2 elbows are joined to create that tetris Z shape. Are 2 straight fittings (and an extremely short tube) needed or is there a specific (non Corsair) coupler? (Visual ref @ 34:00)

Nevermind - I see it. It's a 90 rotary adaptor - male into the reservoir - then another 90 rotary adaptor male into female of the first 90 than a straight connector for the tube (Visual ref @ 35:18)

You refer to an "extension" to the swivel 90 at 19:10. But I don't see anything on Corsair's web site for an "extension" kind of fitting. What is that?

Because they don’t sell them! This was a real pain in the arse for me too. I just fijj my owned my first custom loop three days ago, and needed an extender, a single piece which needs a male to make fitting to attach it too at each end to attach it to, so Corsair doesn’t sell those either! I had to get those from a different company which was Barrow, Botspower who is the OEM for Corsair also makes them but I couldn’t get them in the UK, so had to go with Barrow instead.

What do you do with the odd 3 pin male connector that’s attached to the top of the XD5? Nothing to plug into it and I feel that’s why my RGB on the reservoir isn’t working…

Interesting video but due to possible breakdowns in water cooling, I'm air cooled all the way still. So much easier to replace.
