Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

[CantingSoup]

Yes! And you can use the DDC with the Bitspower heatsink or the EK heatsink as well, It fits perfectly.

Will I need to buy anything else with the bitspower ddc, or is it a standalone plug and play?

Hold on: You need to buy:

https://shop.bitspower.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=65_83&product_id=3533
https://shop.bitspower.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=63_72&product_id=2651
https://shop.bitspower.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=63_78&product_id=5250

Of course as said before, you can use the EK DDC Pump 3.25 PMW as well, and the EK heatsink. The EK decoupling feet are working as well with the bitspower DDC Mini Tank.

Nice! Got those three in the shipping cart. Thanks for your help and patience.

If you want to have the inlet from the top, you should get as well this, so you have a free fill port:

And I suggest to buy as well these to mount it vertically, otherwise you need to find another way to do it.

Added. All of this will establish the drain port as well?

 

[fabio]

The drain is something that you want to have at the bottom of your loop. I've put mine just above the bottom radiator. But There ara many options, depending from your loop!

Do you think that 12 regular fittings with 4 angled fittings would be enough? I’m not gonna do anything too fancy.

Don't know without a basic scheme of your proposed loop!

 

[CantingSoup]

Proposed loop would be CPU - Pump/Res - front rad - bottom rad - gpu - drain port somewhere by the front rad at the bottom

 

[MarcParis]

You Know what I am thinking now? I will try next time/months, to swap the front 240 radiator with a 120, adding a 140mm fan in front of the GPU, and keeping exhaust the bottom radiator fans. Maybe I've found the sweet spot? BTW, I am trying to stay on AIR with the GPU for the easy task to swap/remove/change them! At the end is a workstation!

OFF TOPIC: Some one knows an aterlier or someone else in EUROPE that can od a job of mechanic precision? I want to CUT 4cm at the Heatkillers Tube, and re-thread the 4 aluminum bars. With the right tool and precision is an 30 minutes job, but I cannot find anyone in Brussels. That reservoir combo are amazing that I would love to have in my setup!

Cooling multi gpu like is always an headache to be honest.
Try first to put a slim fan on side if it's cooling down gpu temp.

 

[CantingSoup]

Do y’all think 10ft of soft tubing is enough?

Form Me 1 meters is enough, but take 2 to be sure

I will! For now I will enjoy it!

The pack I’m looking at has 3 meters. I’ve been able to find everything in red other than the angled fittings.

Edit:

My proposed parts list is:

https://www.google.com/amp/s/m.aliexpress.com/item/32712676032.html#ampf=undefined
Barrow 3/8"X5/8" 10mm(ID) X 16mm(OD) Soft Tubing Pipe Compression Fittings With G1/4" Thread Red (16)
https://www.performance-pcs.com/pri...tubing-3-8in-id-x-5-8in-od-bloodshed-red.html
PrimoFlex Advanced LRT 10ft Tubing - 3/8in. ID X 5/8in. OD - Bloodshed Red (1)
Bitspower DDC 3.2 Pump PWM
Black Ice GTS 240 Radiator in red (2)
DDC Mini Water Tank Ultra
Z-CAP III With G1/4" x2 (POM Version)
Bitspower Pump Cooler For DDC/MCP355 (Black)
EK-DDC Anti-Vibration Mounting
EK-UNI Pump Bracket (120mm FAN) Vertica
Heatkiller IV PRO TR4 waterblock

How does the list look so far?

 

[CantingSoup]

I may go with white angled fittings if I still can’t find red ones.

A small update, while preparing the first build log (I want to change few things, but I need to wait for example that noctua release the black chromax version of the slim fan)

The temp are under stress test and with all the panels on, no overclock: overclocking all core at 4.5ghz, the CPU temp goes at 85/90 degree.
The top Titan V run 5 degree higher, and I don't know if is better to watercool them. But I will use them for GPU rendering and CUDA job, so I don't know if is worth it.

The top Quadro is temporary (after I will put it in my small Dan Case system): I will wait november to evaluate if It will have sense to have a Quadro RTX 5000 to run Adobe Suite, Rhinoceros, Autocad and 3Ds Max, or buying a third Titan V to have more rough power.

The bottom fan are installed as intake, but as suggested by @MarcParis I think will be better as exhaust, because the GPU are heating a lot the air.

Soon a full build log!

PS: I've tried to switch off the Intel SSD Led, but even with the Intel support, seems that something doesn't work with the command line tool.

Enjoy the preview!

You think people will be impressed by that??

Hold my beer.

Wait. I can't even afford a beer, much less that much hardware.

But seriously, that is a beautiful build. Good job!

 

[CantingSoup]

Here's a drawing of the planned loop. Looking for ways to improve it (specifically the drain port.

Just finished my build and doing the custom wires

I'll get these added to the page tomorrow! (There's something big coming tomorrow, so perfect timing!)

I'll try and get a front filter for Cerberus mATX from them as well.
