the crappy TIM supplied from factory was starting to gel up already.

 

It's possible that the TIM has been getting very hot

How hot was the card getting before you applied H2O ?

So what would you do different?

 

I still got to get LED strips to light it up on the inside.

Gotta change the direction of the fans on the top radiator see if that helps reduce heat from CPU.

 

 

yeah you have 2 rads so you should be utilising them better....

 

pump --> gpu

gpu --> top rad

top rad --> cpu

cpu --> front rad

 

airflow should be something along the lines of pulling in the front and exhausting from the top/rear

Order of pipes doesn't matter.

 

going straight from GPU to CPU pumps the elevated water temp from the GPU into the CPU 

pumping through a rad between will give the fluid a chance to drop a couple of degrees off

the delta t of the liquid will not change but you can definitely get the CPU lower 

 

just ask Spock, it's logical :aaggl:

Ask keef, he'll agree with me.

I actually know nothing about water cooling a PC as I stopped playing games around the time that water cooling came in (probably a few years before), so I have no opinion on this topic :)
