Production Aquanaut Basic/Extreme - Ultra Low Profile CPU Block & Pump Mount Combo
- Thread starter Nouvolo
- Start date
Today was dry mounting and test day, got a new DDC (with pwm) my previous one is 14 years old ? so it was time for a upgrade. Installed some LEDs inside the DDC to light up the Aquanaut goodness!
Wow, to give us an idea, where did you put the LED?
It's easy, there are 4 holes in the DDC so i wired 4 LEDs in series with a current limiting resistor. Powered straight from the 12v, there is not much room inside the pump so RGB is going to be difficult.
I used 3mm white leds and a 82 resistor that was what i had around. Its 12v so 4 leds in series should work oke
Just me triple checking if this is the correct way to mount the Aquanaut on AM4 before I destroy my brand new 5900X:
Help would be appreciated
ps: screws are very hard to go into the backplate.. is that supposed to be like that ?

it's just the backplate, the screw doesn't touch the PCB at all so just go at itJust me triple checking if this is the correct way to mount the Aquanaut on AM4 before I destroy my brand new 5900X:

Bought in late Oct, any way to verify if our thumbscrews are fine? Also is this gasket right? It seems way too loose and there's no channel that I can see for it to seat in.

- Take a picture of your thumbscrews - but I bet yours is the smooth one without the knurl or groove to use with screwdriver
- Put the mounting bracket on first and then place the gasket in second, then you'll see how it fits together
is not hitting the RAM sticks with those 90° connectors?Just me triple checking if this is the correct way to mount the Aquanaut on AM4 before I destroy my brand new 5900X:

depends on what RAM is used - if LPX then it should barely clears the RAM similar to my build (pic below). My TPV 90 degrees have installed height of 18mm whereas the Koolance is 20mm. Taller RAM and you'll need extender installed first before adding the adapter
Oh man, you aren't kidding about RAM clearances here on on the subreddit. Not that I thought you were, but I decided to chance it to see how it goes with my Crucial Ballistix and the same Alphacool 90deg fittings (interestingly, one TPV one brass because of my hodgepodge spare parts) without any extenders. They fit, but are definitely putting a little more pressure on the RAM sticks than I'd like-- just a little bit of flex on the nearest stick.
It fits, but I wouldn't recommend it!
