Site is super slow...y'all mfers better not have bought all the gunmetal stock!
Preorder submitted, stoked for my first SFF build!Been lurking since February, 100% would preorder the Gunmetal Grey
If your successful and have no intentions of profiting off your design it would be great to see a collaberation with @Wahaha360 and see if you can make a product available to sell... we dont all have access to fancy 3D printers.
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 definitely room to make it work better with the T1, the reservoir part could probably be extended a bit and have a straight-line connection to the GPU block.
Nice, is that the 1T Plus PWM? What is the heatsink there? Or which one are you going to use?Everything came within 3 days via FedEx.
The o ring which comes with the magic cube, do I use it instead of the one which comes with the pump? Also should I get the ek heatsink for the pump?
And now for the real test. Does it blend... I mean hold pressure
UPDATE: It holds pressure! Not only that, the guys at ppcs tested the pump after they sleeved my cables so I know everything works. I finally have 1000% confidence in the most critical part of my loop which is nice.

The thing is, it is pretty hot where I live, around 30-31C ambient temp and I don’t turn on the AC if I’m not feeling uncomfortable. Also, the cold plate is making good contact I believe, seeing as idle temp is only 42C. I’m under the impression that NZXT’s radiator is trash and not to be taking seriously at this point, who knows ?Those temps seem really high for just running cinebench on a 240 AIO. Maybe reseat the cooler because if it shoots up to those temps instantly then maybe the cold plate isn't making good contact with the CPU.
2020-08-14: Big Batch Preorder Open now!
Sorry we didn't open preorder on time today (9AM PST).
However, we are opening up preorder for the big batch, shipping October to November. Hopefully it's plenty for people that want one
My room is usually 27-28c, so I don't think an increase of 2c would make that much of a difference. It really seems like something is wrong with your cooler. Idle temps seem normal, but those load temps really don't. I would give your cooling solution a complete once over to see if anything is wrong. Check the pump to see if it is working (just put your ear to the pump and see if you can hear anything), check your fans, check the radiator (hold your hand over the radiator's exhaust and see if hot air is coming from it) and check the mount if you have extra thermal paste.The thing is, it is pretty hot where I live, around 30-31C ambient temp and I don’t turn on the AC if I’m not feeling uncomfortable.

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 inlet/outlet placement, and arguably a cleaner design(ES 1U is too industrial for the T1 for my taste). I'll share any prototypes that do work and let's see how things go from there.If your successful and have no intentions of profiting off your design it would be great to see a collaberation with @Wahaha360 and see if you can make a product available to sell... we dont all have access to fancy 3D printers.
That is one crazy looking pump top. I don't have an SLA machine either but my college does provide SLA printing and consultation on the process at a reasonable price so I'll probably prototype that way. I did manage to make a few simple watertight cups with my Ender 3 but it is, like you said, definitely not reliable for use in a watercooling loop. Excited to see your crazy design materialized as well!Yeah! And this guy also made a pump top with SLA! I had a crazy design in mind but I don't have an SLA... ? watertight designs are hard with FDM. Anyway... He actually offered to print my design so we'll see how that turns out!
Pump is working (noisy as hell), rad and fans are also working. I applied the paste like a snowflake shape so I think I’m good there. Anyway, I have swapped the AIO for the EK Coolstream SE 240 and an Alphacool Eisbaer LT Solo. Waiting for the 2 slots bracket for my 2080Ti to arrive so I can put in my Ghost S1 to do a test run before I swap to my T1 which is supposed to arrive in later this monthMy room is usually 27-28c, so I don't think an increase of 2c would make that much of a difference.

did someone else got hes order return to shipper? Just got my tracking # today and know i check and says return to shipper
Yeah i saw it kinda weirdThere's a thread on reddit withultiple people reporting that their case was returned to shipper. Even @gwertheim ...must be something more widespread going on... Maybe with DHL?

@gwertheim do you know if replacement parts will be available for purchase? My front and rear panel arrived with some blemishes.
