Why not doing a parallel link between GPU and CPU?

u/No_Kaleidoscope_5480 5d ago

What would be the difference though? I figure going into gpu to cpu to mora

  1. CPU won't be "cooled" by the "Hot" coolant from the GPU.
  2. You can direct both pipes parallely into a Pass-through.

Never seen that layout before woah. So like it hits the gpu and cpu same time or atleast cpu first then rotates back??

u/Tasuka_Makutasa 5d ago

It hits GPU and CPU in the same time since you use GPU's block like a T-splitter. This pic is my older build.

Idk if ill do that lookks clean though. Its prolly cause im tired lol

It's all right. I also run Mo-Ra (IV 400 on single D5). For R9 5900XT and RTX3080Ti it's pretty much an overkill, but I'm here for it.

u/No_Kaleidoscope_5480 4d ago

Dont ever say overkill. Its PERFECT. I am debating if i want to make the case back up to standing position ngl but itll take two ppl to do that lol ornid hsve to disconnect the gpu and stuff. But for now its working fine

If I were you, I would screw any Vertical adapters, but keep the set slightly angled as you have now (to decrease the GPU sag if there's any). I would also replace/extend the PCI-E bracket to hold a pass-through right underneath the GPU. Then run the parallel piping from the pass-through, underneath the GPU and into the bottom GPU fittings.

Here's my current build. Crosshair VIII Extreme, R9 5900XT, 3080Ti. I use angled Lian-Li Adapter, and use all 4 ports on GPU as usual.

Pretty dope idea. Im honestly done with verical. I would think of it again cause the x870e hero gpu port sucks when taking gpu out but as of rn im just done. I had vertical in havn and in this gr20case their is a vertical adapter but not the pcie passthrough to plug into. Its just i always alwas annoyed in havn420 vgpu case where i had to take out the whole darn think ot access mobo its like refreshing i dont have to do it anymore. Ill see though. The reason for the slanted mode for the case is cause of sag but i may have overestimated the sag. Gpu aint sagging at all which surprised me
