    Glad people liked it! I'd love to make it available but at the moment this is extremely tailor-made for my build. It requires this custom AC extension cable (I know it looks sketchy because it is; the stock one is simply too bulky and always blocks one of the two ports), the power button...

    Haven't checked SFFN for a while and here is my latest creation... Still gotta figure out the print warping but it's looking promising.

    Third prototype of my 3D-printed DDC reservoir and it's unfortunately still leaking pressure... Not sure if it's universal with all DDC pumps but my Alphacool DDC310 seems to require a ton of torque to achieve a proper seal and the printed threads ended up stripped; threaded inserts also got...

    3600C16 is admittedly better but C18 will do just fine. It's the infinity fabric running at 1800 that matters more.

    3600 is ideal.

    This is from Microsoft. DirectStorage isn't coming any time soon. By 2021 there will be more and better options for PCIe 4 risers.

    Problem is: the $200 case or the $1500 card?

    Those multi-GPU workloads don't use SLI. So long as the cards are plugged into PCIe slots they will be utilized depending on the software.

    This response doesn't signify that they don't have a "normal" water block design ready IMO. EK doesn't make these integrated pump solutions unlike Alphacool so I guess it's safe to assume they only designed what they always do, which is a conventional full cover block. This idea is kinda out of...

    This is more detailed than any fan-made concepts would ever be. There are details like stuff under the fins, fan mounting bracket visible through the blades, and protective film on fan hub on the other fan. We're only like 10 days away from announcement so I guess leaks of actual cards are...

    Yes, it's possible in front of the PSU but does require custom cables. You'll need something like these pslate SATA power cables(the spacing on these is a bit too wide as the drives will be right next to each other but I think you can ask pslate to adjust that, or if you're comfortable it's not...

    Working hackintosh (almost?) in the T1! WX 4100(for macOS only) is running off a M.2 to PCIe adapter.

    Wahaha is still working on the distro plate I believe, which serves pretty much the same purpose but is imo a more elegant and integrated design. This still has the same issues with clearance like the Alphcool ES 1U only with the benefit of not leaking(hopefully haha), potentially better...

    Thinking about making a custom 3D-printed DDC pump top/reservoir combo recently... ? The idea seems quite plausible with SLA printing. Should be roughly the same size as the Alphacool ES 1U DDC, but a bit thinner and maybe slightly longer. Right now it's pretty much an ES 1U rip-off but there's...

    RX 5500 XT is a bit of an edge case because it's limited to 8 PCIe lanes be it 3.0 or 4.0, so essentially we're looking at the difference between PCIe 3.0 x8 vs x16. This isn't a problem for the majority of other graphics cards that utilize 16 lanes. The performance hit is more noticeable on the...
