@Kitsune you can try and remove the backplate off your GPU. I had the temp drop from my RTX 2070 from 77°c to around 60 - 62°c with the backplate removed. So this might be something you want to try, do note I did change the paste as well so this might have added as well... But its worth the test...

I did a connection with a compression fitting (out) and a 45° degree (in) so two compression fittings should go right on the iceman...

I haven't found an alternative either so thats why I kinda left it out... As I'm currently planning on working without the Quick Disconnects and might add them at a later time

Well I must have missed that part but happy you noticed it! :-) I just ordered with Highflow as they answered any questions I had pretty fast and professional and was one of the shops I found the TX240 within Europe. As this was in Netherlands and since I'm living in Belgium just decided to go...

The problem is that there are to many options around and I've been waiting since end of June for everything to arrive. Currently my Ncase M1 is populated just waiting on me to fix some minor issues (like where to put the fan splitter) and put tubing in. I'm not sure what EK-Tube ZMT Matte Black...

Hey Egoisst, From what I could find from reading around the Optimus seems to be pulling ahead when more TDP is pulled by the CPU. Since I'm not really planning on overclocking (unless you count PBO) and I just want to be sure that if I ever need to do this I have a block capable of doing it...

Hey Egoisst, Sure, do note that Watercooling is pretty new to me as well. So I have a bunch of extra fittings ordered just in case I needed them. - EKWB ZMT 16/10 - XPSC TX240 - EKWB PE240 - 2x Noctua AF12x25 - 2x Noctua AF12x15 - EKWB Vector RTX (Might need to take off some plastic to make it...

I am currently waiting since 1th of July 2020 and last info I got from Matt was that they were trying to get my order out somewhere this week... *Fingers crossed* Plan on using it with 3900x and Nvidia 2070 (waiting for Ampere reviews before actually buying one)

I went with the Optimus (still waiting on it) and Alphacool fittings (trying to stick to what Ali used as close as possible) but went with Iceman Pump / Res combo for easier filling... But currently waiting on everything to arrive. But Optimus seems to be the longest wait of all but I'm hoping...

I am sitting in the EU same as you I think, but I managed to order all parts like the XSPC and PE240 without much hassle. Only thing I did differently is go for the ICEMAN RES/Pump Combo and a different cpu block so I'm currently waiting on this. But I can say that the XSPC rad is pretty...
