why dont want get the active backplate? that one looks good :eek:

Find it pointless? Top dun heat up as much as bottom... If i can cool the bottom VRM, then top dun really matter.

Besides, there is no water entering that portion... Works the same as a heatsink, based on pics.

Price update for AQC. If the amount u spending is quite a lot, do consider putting into 1 shipment and not to split it to siam GST. For my case, i would need to split into 2 shipments just to avoid GST, and it was alrdy at the limit of S$400 le.

34.90 Eur x 2 x 1.8 = S$125.64
34.90 Eur x1.8 + S$685 x 0.07 = $110.95 (may be lower due to exchange rates.)

I save around S$15+, depending on currency exchange.

Also, since im using FRANK card, with its 6% rebate, im practically paying 1% GST. Affordable i guess?

Coz, u r OC too much le.... the backplate cant release the heat as fast the gpu is giving out.

For me, at most +100mV nia for 24/7. No point going that high. More things to consider in which i have not considered, such as heat output.

Very good service i experienced from AQC. As 2 of my items were OOS and lead time was 2 weeks, i enquired if i could add on 2 more litres of coolant. The rep amended my order and sent back the invoice to me. At the same time, he recommended me to get the 5 litres instead as it was more worth the money.

So, i asked if he could remove the existing 2 litres and add in the 5 litres of coolant. After 1 hour, he sent me the revised invoice again and gave me the extra amount to be paid to AQC.

This is what i call excellent service. Wasnt expecting much, but he managed to save some costs for me.

Cheers to Sven.

Just an update, i have finally started to do up my WC rig... Fingers were burnt from screwing the ever-tight fittings... For now, i made a mistake in planning and need to get some more fittings from BP. So, this is the overall so far...

Using BP multi-z 250. Height should be 270mm, iirc.

The 750D already had a hole near to the window, i just drill a hole on the other side to make it straight.

your fill port just fill via the top rad?
btw the bitspower valve fittings is like tap ah? on and off?
off, insert tube, on, water will drain out?

I also planning to use XT45 for top rad and UT60 for bottom rad.

Yeah, white cables are frm congrad.

If u r gonna put the ut60 at front, den u cant use hdd cage le, at most near to the psu.

One advice though, dun get 250 res, quite a tight space in it unless u getting with BP pump top and self supporting stand. Not sure of its total height but it shld be better than what i did with my pump top and res... If only i gt a multi-z 200 v2.

The fill port is at the top of res. The mini valve acts like a ball valve, turn to open and close. I added a stop plug for more security. Insert tube and let water drain out. Dun on pump for that though, advice frm the pros there to me.
