#water-cooling

My PC is running smoothly, but it still could use some adjustments. Liquid metal thermal paste for the CPU is a consideration, though not settled on. I've been eyeing sleeved cables, but they're surprisingly pricey. For now, the focus is on optimizing airflow and water temperature; the case remains unsealed to provide easy access, especially with the set-up adjustments needed from time to time.

Tbh: Star Citizen works perfectly fine (and lag free) on 2x 4k but what am I playing? Yes, fore sure - good ol' SWTOR 🤷🏻‍♀️👀

It's alive! Not finished but functional, though 😎

Still a lot of work to do... 😵‍💫

Currently, I'm in the process of rebuilding my PC with some new components and a water-cooled graphics card (once again). To accommodate the weight of the graphics card and it's backplate, I had to use a riser cable. It's simply too heavy to be mounted horizontally without risking damage to the motherboard 👀

You might be wondering, how small can a water-cooled custom PC actually be? Well, the answer lies within the reach of your hands; it can be as compact as you can manage to reach all parts 🤫

Also, the scorching heat outside is making it impractical to cut the acrylic tubes right now. So, it seems I'll have to wait till the weekend before I can complete my computer setup. Patience is key, I suppose. 🤷‍♀️
