AquaFusion

This is a refresh of my previous build, the Xtia XGeneration. More chrome, more bling, more fusion.

Upgraded with an RTX 4090FE paired with a Heatkiller Pro block. This is my main gaming rig/Workstation for photo and video editing.

Still to do:


  • 12700K to 14700K
    D30 fans to Alphacool Stealth Metal Fan.
    Additional temp/watts panel, looking for a micro lcd to display stats instead of the large 5" display i had previously.
    Possibly looking to change the angle fittings to chrome to match.
    Swap out Aquacomputers temp sensors for something else due to reliability issues. They break too easily.
    Custom Distro block still to be drafted and made, i held out due to looking to change gpu and block.

The rig consists of the following parts:

12700K Overclocked 5.1/4.2/4.3 1.37v offset
