BGR Milkyness

This wall mounted build has evolved over the years and has been tinkered with and rebuilt 20ish something times. It had a FTW3 1080ti for two years in it with a Thermaltake pump res combo that had a built in bracket from the case to hold it. Purchased an EK D5 RGB pump res combo when I got the 2080ti and slapped a 400mm reservoir on it to fill the void weird space... I'm completely aware it doesn't provide any thermal benefits! It just seemed like the best thing to do to fill a decent amount of empty space. I made this white and black so that any specific color with the RGB lighting could be projected. PSU is way overkill but this particular Corsair unit only kicks the fan when it gets hot so 75% of the time its not running. 8 fans in a push pull config with a bunch of different fan curves that I can hot key. GPU temp on my normal use fan curve maxes out at 49c. CPU is in the 70's under load but that's because its been abused for almost three years running at a 5.1ghz 1.39v .

This thing is a champ BUT the GPU is getting a bottleneck from the 7700k on a few games and loads. I'm waiting until the summer for something new to come out. 9900k is basically two of my CPUs slapped together lol but I think a proper upgrade would be the next gen I'm still getting by more than fine

Built a custom air channel device inside the case so that the hot air exhausts 100% out of the back and then right up the wall and out into the room its incredibly efficient.

As this evolved and my PETG bending skills increased I eliminated as many excess fittings and have it down to three solid bends of tubing for the whole loop. There were many fallen PETG soldiers along the way Emoji
