@mad73 Cheers mate
Got it exactly how I want it, for now.@mightyman Nah you wouldn't put hot coolant from the GPU into the CPU then into the Motherboard. If you're going to do the job properly you want individual feeds after yhe radiator. It's a little more work but it is a noticeable difference. Remember if the average temperature is lower, then the radiator/fans has to do less work to cool it down. So it increases the lifespan of components.
The DT is modified so in theory needs a bigger radiator. On hot days it will see 100 degrees centigrade. Which was always worrying for me. But I am not convinced the Lanza radiator made that much difference. A proper Ally rad will though. So if you fabricate a proper ally rad to the dt the temperature difference will be mental. YZ runs with barely little coolant and the temps are like 50 degrees. That's half that of the dt.

Been busy doing some more upgrades to my PC. Another 16 Gigs of ram, another SSD and a HDD. New pump and reservoir and have mounted an OLED screen hooked into an Arduino which in turn is hooked into the motherboard.
Eventually the Arduino will poll the motherboard for CPU temperature as well as time.
Always Originate, Never Pirate!

@CYBER-NINJA Cheers mate, it's good to have a PC again lmao.
I couldn't have chosen a worse time to rebuild this PC, as soon as I did the bloody forum started falling apart lmao!

Another great looking iteration to you coolant loop! Hard line takes time but excellent finish to it. Is that the OLED screen at the top left of your case?
@Mightyman Yeah mate, that used to be the headphone and microphone port, but I never ever used them so I ripped it all out and put the OLED there in its place.
@Minia I always felt flexi pipe was a bit of a get out for people who don't possess the skill to do it in hard lines.
To me this build was a step down in technical ability. In the initial build I bent every single piece as one solid item. But this one I didn't. I used a get out by using prebuilt 90 degree bends. Uhhm those bends are 16 quid each. So guess how much this build cost me....
This build looks so much cleaner than yhe original go. I was a bit more aware of what was needed. I am pleased with the results... For now.
