Zero Maintenance Watercooling

Motherboard: AsRock Taichi Ultimate

RAM: 64 GB Corsair Dominator DDR4 2666 mhz CL 15

Case: Phanteks Eclipse P600s

GPU: EVGA RTX 2080 Ti XC w/ EKWB RTX 2080 Ti RGB waterblock and backplate

Storage: 2x Samsung 970 Evo 2TB NVMe
3x Samsung 860 Evo 4TB SSD

This system was built for high-end video editing, music engineering, and 4K gaming. It was designed to be fully watercooled with little required maintenance, making use of acetal blocks and pump tops along with EKWB's Zero Maintenance Tubing (ZMT) and Mayhems X1 clear coolant. If you're looking for the performance and silence of watercooling without the troublesome maintenance, this is an ideal set up.

The waterblocks are from EK and Watercool for the GPU and the CPU respectively. The pump combo is a D5 in a Singularity Computers pump top and reservoir. The radiators are from Hardware Labs in the 30mm thin class and the fittings are a combination of EK and Bitspower. The Phanteks Eclipse p600s case is built for watercooling, with fantastic radiator capacity and dedicated drain and fill ports included.

The full custom PSU wires were made in house from 16AWG wire and MDPC-X Carbon BTI sleeving.
