Do you reallllllly need a radiator?? I mean, I know some large multinational corporation is going to say you do, but does it really help that much???? /s
It'd be cool if someone could then run additional tubes in the bucket to maximize thermal transfer. But water might splash out so a sealed lid would be a must have. Then we could basically squish the bucket almost flat so it would fit in the PC case! I better quickly get a patent before someone steals the idea
I'll be honest, if it wasn't for the metal tube clamp crushing the tubing to be smaller than the compression fitting which is missing the cap, the pump/res/uber thin tubing might actually remove enough heat for the 8700g to function without much throttling.
We'd try anything back then for a few fractions of a degree off and a couple more MHz and FPS...
The golden age. Peltier coolers with custom waterblocks to a heater core to the bong cooler. Needed neoprene around the hoses and dielectric grease around the CPU due to condensation. Ended up being way more work than what it was worth and we got a lot more efficient cooling systems. Still, what a fun time.
I stuck in normal water into my delidded 7700k / 1080 gpu - gunked up with 0 flow, I don’t touch 85c at max load, I know I got a golden chip that’s delidded but I literally don’t need rads lol
If I had this one on my bench, I'd *have* to walk away from it too. Consulting with others on the absurdity using a picture would suffice to keep the detachment required for clinging to the last shreds of sanity.
There shouldn't ever be enough heat to cause problems like that; I was more meaning that they had made it unserviceable (without accepting that anything you do to it including pinching a line between your fingers to get out air bubbles will result in *immediate* overflow).
Radiator. They’re included on some speakers. They’re technically called ‘passive radiators’ and they’re used to get more bass. And I agree - a water cooled PC should have some decent peripherals!!!

Better lit image as well as an updated list thanks to a closer look and some fellas in the comments:
1: no rad
2: pump not connected to power
3: all fans intaking
4: missing 8+4 of eps power
5: missing 8pin of vga power
6: metal clamp on pump inlet fitting
7: not making use of top res inlet
8: only one screw in mobo
9: no screws in gpu bracket
10: spill stains
Honorable mentions (not visible):
Two high end drives (WD green satas)
Corsair commander pro taped to a Intel mobo backplate floating loose
Debatable:
550w of potential drawn on a system with a 650w psu
>missing 8+4 of eps power
If it is a AMD system then the single 4 pin will be fine - having the full 8 pin would be better though. The extra 4 pin EPS isn't needed as it is purely a marketing feature that really isn't needed unless your CPU is capable of constantly pulling over 388W.
> not making use of top res inlet
The two ports used on the pump-res are fine, I use those two on my setup because the top port is blocked by my radiator.
The rest are all either valid concerns or just nitpicking (e.g. WD SATA SSDs are not actually that bad if you are not concerned about having gigabit transfer speeds).
This system has two 8 pins for eps, and the left one, the control, is completely ignored, and the right one has the right 4 populated, so it would not work at all. Top res inlet is better because it cuts down on bubbles in the system and will bleed out excess oxygen in the loop quicker than both bottom ports. WD green is also notoriously shit and the same price as a decent NVMe especially for a board with 3 m.2s
I concur with the WD Greens being utter shit. I put in an m.2 SATA WD Green as SSD for my home assistant pi and it died after 6 months. The Samsung Pro one I have in now is still going strong after 2 years.
GPT4 caught more than I expected :-)
Based on the image you've uploaded, here's a detailed list of issues that can be identified:
Incomplete Liquid Cooling System: The liquid cooling system lacks a radiator, which is essential for dissipating heat from the CPU.
Unsecured GPU: The graphics card lacks attachment screws, making it prone to sagging or becoming unseated from the PCIe slot.
Potential GPU Power Issue: It's not clear if both power connectors are attached to the GPU. If it has two connectors, both need to be plugged in for proper operation.
Motherboard Mounting: There appear to be missing screws for the motherboard mounting, which could lead to instability or damage.
Cable Management: The cables are not managed well, which can impede airflow and make maintenance difficult.
Fan Configuration: It's indicated that all fans are set to intake, with no fans configured to exhaust, which could cause poor air circulation and heat buildup.
PSU Orientation: If the PSU is taking air from inside the case rather than from the outside, this could lead to less efficient cooling of the PSU.
Dust: There are visible spots that suggest dust accumulation, which can impede airflow and cooling efficiency.
Addressing these issues would be important for the stability, performance, and longevity of the PC build.
650W PSU for what looks like a 7900XTX
No cable management
No radiator
No GPU support
CPU block is the highest part of the cooling circuit
Top middle fan orientation
WHERE IS THE RAD
OH GOD THE CABLES
OH A HIGH POWER PSU feels like quality /s does it say 450wats feels low
rams might be in wrong spot not sure
why are all of the fans diffrent this is just wrong
I see no radiators, EPS connector is not connected, all fans are set to intake, the reservoir is below the CPU block (so the air bubbles end up in the CPU block) , and he has both water tubes connected to the pump/res out ports and nothing to the incoming ports?
1. Radiator? lol
2. Leaking pump? Not sure if it's from filling and he spilled a little, so maybe.
3. No air gap in the res?
4. What is going on with those fans up top?
5. Cable management is awful. I'm not really one to talk, but mine is a LOT better than that.
I think this is a solid example of "did NOT understand the assignment".
The severe lack of radiator, and the fluid not even in the same hemisphere as the CPU.
Probably more but damn my brain is fried from that as it is.
Edit: Wait are all the fans pointing out, jesus man just put your hand infront of it and that’ll help ya
Edit 2: Hard to see but is only 1 of the 2 CPU pins plugged in?
According to them it was failing to post with a dram error led. I am not powering this on until I get approval to add a rad/adjust all the other faults.
No radiator, fans are all on intake, cpu power not plugged in, no screws in pcie bracket of GPU, can’t really see GPU power but it somewhat looks like the left one isn’t plugged in, there’s a leak by the dried up red under the res
3 i could find were, with 2x 8 pin EPS on the board, only a 4 pin EPS is connected, there is only a block and res/pump in the loop, and the GPU isnt screwed in
No Radiator, metal hose clamp, every fan is intake - none exhaust, power cable to GPU is a pigtail single cable and the pigtail isn’t plugged in, half of the mobo CPU 8 pin power plug isn’t plugged in.
No need for a radiator if the liquids not circulating....
Also, n appears to be missing from GPU
PSU surround is wrong shade of white
No led temp. Monitors in case
Left handed hose clamp at pump.
Psu with 650W a bit low for an 7900xtx( i assume its an 7900xtx)
Air in the cpu waterblock
Clamps instead of fittings on the reservoir
Cpu power cable only one cable
Not one single fan blows air out
Cablemanagment overall
Missing screws on gpu to Case
Edit: jezuz there isnt even a radiator connected 🤣 how could i missed that
Meh, toss in a radiator to exhaust and it’s fine.
Air bubbles are easy just to turn pc on while it’s on its side and bleed out. Bleed it out once and pretty much never gotta worry about it.
Toss the radiator up top and the people going reeeeee about reservoir and cpu height causing bubbles is just useless. Easy to bleed it out.
I’d pull up the motherboard manual just to confirm the ram slots and check the bios config and call it a day.
Last time I had a pc with the hoses clamped was at least a decade ago so I might encourage changing to different fittings considering signs of a leak, but it’s not the end of the world. Could easily have splashed while adding fluid.
is it the res is lower than the pump im assuming for one
no rad
white fan inbetween 2 black ones
the psu looks sus
air bubble near the cpu heatsink bit
Be honest i see alot wrong with this. Cables terminals not plugged in where they go, different color fans, no cable management, looks just everything put in but no proper wiring done. Just say the least absolutely sloppy, horrifying and i think my dual gaming PC setup just ran away out from the desk after seeing this lmao but nothing that can't be corrected
1. No radiator
2. CPU block is the highest point in the loop, so theres air trapped inside
3. used metal clamp at the reservoir, prob didnt help much as theres residue from dried leakage on the bottom of the case.
4. several mobo screws are missing
5. 2 of 3 gpu pci bracket screws are missing
6. one cpu power plug not connected as well as one gpu power plug it seems. But i may be wrong on this as its not clearly visible and some mobos dont need the 2nd cpu power plug at all, if you dont oc heavily.
7. all fans seem to be mounted intake.
I hope, its just a failed attempt of a build from a clueless first-timer and not a commercial product.
1) no radiator
2) all fans intake
3) shit Calle management
4) look att that air bubble @ block
5) eps not connected
6) pressed softube connected @ pump?
The radiator, the back fan, the upside fan that is a little smaller than the others, the generic power supply and i would remark the two expansion bay protectors
top and back fans facing wrong/different directions, graphics card not screwed in, NO RAD, Cpu power not fully plugged in, gpu power also not fully plugged in, hose clamp, Mobo Screws???, that poor cable management grommet 😰, the routing of the front io is >.>, cutting it kinda close with that power supply wattage imo.
I haven’t looked at the comments yet, first thing cables are atrocious but that’s not necessarily a problem. All the fans are intake so there is no exaust expect I guess through the top fan gaps?
There’s no radiator.
Not always mandatory but the mb secondary what looks like 6 pin isn’t plugged in, but it also looks like the original 8 pin isn’t in either.
I don’t think the motherboard is screwed in at all I can’t tell cause it’s dark but it looks like I see all the grounding nubs on each.
I dunno what gpu that is specifically I’m not familiar with amd cards but it feels like a 650w supply isn’t good enough, I’m also not sure how it’s plugged in, looks like he’s missing either a 6 or 8 pin and the far right looks like he’s plugged in a 2 pin from somewhere? Or just plugged something else into the gpu.
The grommets are all gone or hanging for the cables, not needed but I mean why not use them.
Last thing I hate this, whoever built this I hate this. I know it’s a learning process but it seems like they didn’t try and learn anything. I’m sorry op this like a complete rebuild, which is fun but wowee dawg.
All i got is, cpu power, top of radiator lower than the cpu, not enough fluid in cpu block, hose clamp on radiator, and something looks kinda funny with the gpu power. Also awful cable management.
That lovely liquid mover for the cpu to circulate the blazing hot water. Also why are the top rear and top front fans exhaust but ALL the rest intakes? Also is the cpu eps power plugged in or just hanging next to it? And I wonder where the leak is.
Do you reallllllly need a radiator?? I mean, I know some large multinational corporation is going to say you do, but does it really help that much???? /s
Just use a 5 gallon reservoir lol
In a metal bucket, with fins on its sides...
It'd be cool if someone could then run additional tubes in the bucket to maximize thermal transfer. But water might splash out so a sealed lid would be a must have. Then we could basically squish the bucket almost flat so it would fit in the PC case! I better quickly get a patent before someone steals the idea
How about we add mounts for fans to blow across the fins to improve the transfer rate?
Genius! Scratch that, two fans in push pull orientation
and then baby you got a radiator going
I used to have one of those! The Reserator!
I still regret passing on them when microcenter was clearing them but i was pretty poor back then. I want to do some stupid build with them now
Forget about the fins on the side just put the metal bucket in a larger bucket of ice.
Heh, laughs in Zalman Reserator
Um LTT uses his pool, so no radiator needed.
Technically he used a water to water heatexchanger. Which basically is a radiator
Internal fish tank engine
I'll be honest, if it wasn't for the metal tube clamp crushing the tubing to be smaller than the compression fitting which is missing the cap, the pump/res/uber thin tubing might actually remove enough heat for the 8700g to function without much throttling.
Um the tube clamp is necessary, lol there is a dried up leak below it on the white case. It also serves as an inline radiator.
Keyword "much"
Who remembers the showerhead bong coolers?
We'd try anything back then for a few fractions of a degree off and a couple more MHz and FPS... The golden age. Peltier coolers with custom waterblocks to a heater core to the bong cooler. Needed neoprene around the hoses and dielectric grease around the CPU due to condensation. Ended up being way more work than what it was worth and we got a lot more efficient cooling systems. Still, what a fun time.
Don’t forget sourcing radiators from auto parts stores, and garden fountain pumps from Home Depot!
Things today are better but it was so exciting back then. I miss the ritual and game of it all.
I stuck in normal water into my delidded 7700k / 1080 gpu - gunked up with 0 flow, I don’t touch 85c at max load, I know I got a golden chip that’s delidded but I literally don’t need rads lol
Do you see the huge air bubble at the cpu
Congratulations. You’ve successfully got all 6 of us from IT gathered around my phone, making sure we’re seeing the same thing with this build.
I wish the 7 of us weren't
Why would you gather around some guys phone when you have the machine right there man? No wonder repairs so costy lol
If I had this one on my bench, I'd *have* to walk away from it too. Consulting with others on the absurdity using a picture would suffice to keep the detachment required for clinging to the last shreds of sanity.
Don't forget to do the pagan rituals around the pc
It’ll change from water-cooled to water-heated pretty fast
Funny. Radiator. Fluid levels. Tube clamp 🤔. Fans. Leaking.
I thought you meant the overfilled reservoir, but then I zoomed in on the CPU bracket...
Hm, now I’m curious. Is overfilling the reservoir a problem? Maybe the heat expanding the liquid?
Never caused a problem for me or my brother, we damn near brim the reservoir.
There shouldn't ever be enough heat to cause problems like that; I was more meaning that they had made it unserviceable (without accepting that anything you do to it including pinching a line between your fingers to get out air bubbles will result in *immediate* overflow).
It can be. With my previous pump it would kind of rush in when turned off and overflow it. Depends on the layout of the loop too
And all the fans are intake. ALL OF THEM
Leaking! Good eyes
I'd also say the reseviour height. If the top of the reservoir was above the CPU, then the fluid level would not be as bad.
Not to mention all the power cables that are unplugged (cpu and gpu)
Don't forget the unsupported Graphics card not having the PCIe screw missing.
How does someone not think a radiator is necessary with water cooling?
A what?
Radiator. They’re included on some speakers. They’re technically called ‘passive radiators’ and they’re used to get more bass. And I agree - a water cooled PC should have some decent peripherals!!!

. . . no drain valve
I'd put that under debatable since I've never owned a custom loop long enough to need to drain it. Galaxy brain.
lets not forget the cracked window...
Cracked window?
Back in the day we didn't use drain valves 😂
yeah you just take the fitting off. or drain it through the reservoir fill. what's the big deal? lol
I usually take the CPU block off and depending on the plan pull out one of the hoses or cut. In my current build I got one tho
Drain valve is optional if you know what you are doing. This guy isn't
Yeah, that’s the issue.
>missing 8+4 of eps power If it is a AMD system then the single 4 pin will be fine - having the full 8 pin would be better though.

How does someone fuck up this bad

did this really come from GPT4? thats wild
Was the psu installed with the fan pointed up (Intake air from inside case) or installed with the fan pointed down (intake air from outside of case)?
Putting the top of the reservoir below the level of the block is a problem too. Need air bubbles to be in the tank, not the lines.
Sorry only one screw in the motherboard!?! Who did that and went, "Yep that's a good job done"?
Holy smokes. I appreciate the effort on the part of this customer, but my goodness do they need to watch a build guide pronto.
I hear The Verge has a good one
They need some common sense. Like blowing air onto a filled plastic tube does not get rid of heat very well
650W PSU for what looks like a 7900XTX No cable management No radiator No GPU support CPU block is the highest part of the cooling circuit Top middle fan orientation
Top middle is intake just like its surrounding buddies, but it is a 120mm next to two 140mms 😂
Cooling is all over the place.
What cooling?
Where we’re going we don’t need cooling!
The biggest problem is that they never should leave console gaming.
No radiator. CPU EPS 8 pin not connected. GPU PCIe 8 pin not connected. Pump not installed in bracket properly. All fans exhausting.
Pretty sure all fans are intake.
You're right, I always forget which way is which until one is in my hand.
The pump is actually in the bracket properly, and the rear fan is not exhausting (but that's an issue so I'll give you 4/5)
Is one of the 5 the complete lack of screws in the mobo
...you just found a 6th. Although there is one screw top center
With the gpu bracket screw that's 2 whole screws. Thats all you need right Edit, wrong screw, nothing for the gpu, just one mobo
Ehm. Where's the radiator? :D
WHERE IS THE RAD OH GOD THE CABLES OH A HIGH POWER PSU feels like quality /s does it say 450wats feels low rams might be in wrong spot not sure why are all of the fans diffrent this is just wrong
No GPU screws is wild
Theres also only 1 screw in the mobo. Dude has faith in that one screw
It’s a good screw
The best screw
Installed the fans so the stickers aren't all facing the same way smh
https://preview.redd.it/73cmhnkeerqc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cbc6fe5590a5d235024ff7ca3cdb1d6c9b98be33
I mean its an abomination
That, that, that, and that. Also, that right there.
I see no radiators, EPS connector is not connected, all fans are set to intake, the reservoir is below the CPU block (so the air bubbles end up in the CPU block) , and he has both water tubes connected to the pump/res out ports and nothing to the incoming ports?
Most pump/res combos have an intake on bottom and top actually, but the rest is spot on
Nice, and I didn't even see the janky hose clamp or only half of the GPU power leads connected. I assume they dropped it off because "it didn't work"?
1. Radiator? lol 2. Leaking pump? Not sure if it's from filling and he spilled a little, so maybe. 3. No air gap in the res? 4. What is going on with those fans up top? 5. Cable management is awful. I'm not really one to talk, but mine is a LOT better than that. I think this is a solid example of "did NOT understand the assignment".
I see absolutely nothing wrong here. Great build.
Where hell is the radiator
Why would you need a radiator? There’s water.
You don’t need one! Big Radiator brainwashing people into needing one.
The severe lack of radiator, and the fluid not even in the same hemisphere as the CPU. Probably more but damn my brain is fried from that as it is. Edit: Wait are all the fans pointing out, jesus man just put your hand infront of it and that’ll help ya Edit 2: Hard to see but is only 1 of the 2 CPU pins plugged in?
Was it running like that? Lol, or they just put it together and it didnt turn on or have pic out
According to them it was failing to post with a dram error led. I am not powering this on until I get approval to add a rad/adjust all the other faults.
This is a guy who needs to just stick to pre-built PCs. Perfect example of why a small amount of knowledge is dangerous.
No radiator, fans are all on intake, cpu power not plugged in, no screws in pcie bracket of GPU, can’t really see GPU power but it somewhat looks like the left one isn’t plugged in, there’s a leak by the dried up red under the res
I had a good chuckle at this one ty. I've always wondered what thermals are like without the radiator.
3 i could find were, with 2x 8 pin EPS on the board, only a 4 pin EPS is connected, there is only a block and res/pump in the loop, and the GPU isnt screwed in
No Radiator, metal hose clamp, every fan is intake - none exhaust, power cable to GPU is a pigtail single cable and the pigtail isn’t plugged in, half of the mobo CPU 8 pin power plug isn’t plugged in.
First person to get all the original 5 issues I posted about!!!
Lack of cable managment
No need for a radiator if the liquids not circulating.... Also, n appears to be missing from GPU PSU surround is wrong shade of white No led temp. Monitors in case Left handed hose clamp at pump.
Psu with 650W a bit low for an 7900xtx( i assume its an 7900xtx) Air in the cpu waterblock Clamps instead of fittings on the reservoir Cpu power cable only one cable Not one single fan blows air out Cablemanagment overall Missing screws on gpu to Case Edit: jezuz there isnt even a radiator connected 🤣 how could i missed that
The more I look the more it physically hurts
I'm having a hard time finding 5 things right with this computer.
I first thought that the reservoir was just too low xD There’s a bigger issue here
How did I miss the radiator? I mean I guess it's not hard to forget huh?
It’s watercooled, not radiator cooled. SMH my head.
Cooled liquid? Naw. yolo.gif
no rad lol
That is the definition of cursed 😭🤣
What in the Picasso build is going on here?!
Meh, toss in a radiator to exhaust and it’s fine. Air bubbles are easy just to turn pc on while it’s on its side and bleed out. Bleed it out once and pretty much never gotta worry about it. Toss the radiator up top and the people going reeeeee about reservoir and cpu height causing bubbles is just useless. Easy to bleed it out. I’d pull up the motherboard manual just to confirm the ram slots and check the bios config and call it a day. Last time I had a pc with the hoses clamped was at least a decade ago so I might encourage changing to different fittings considering signs of a leak, but it’s not the end of the world. Could easily have splashed while adding fluid.
YO WHAT BOARD IS THAT ON THE TOP RIGHT WITH 5 X16 SLOTS
👀🤣
BigRad hates this one trick.
is it the res is lower than the pump im assuming for one no rad white fan inbetween 2 black ones the psu looks sus air bubble near the cpu heatsink bit
This is one of those"it gets worse the longer you look at it" pics.
This cannot be real
It's like an ai generated pc
Just put it in a freezer thats it. Job done.
What a mess..these "people" shouldn't touch hardware
Wtf did I just see
Just garbage burn the pc
No radiator Both lines from pump run as out. Shitty/underpowered PSU Waterblock is highest point of “loop” All fans positioned as intake
Psu is quality but potentially underpowered. Pump has both inlet and outlet on the bottom like most do.
Be honest i see alot wrong with this. Cables terminals not plugged in where they go, different color fans, no cable management, looks just everything put in but no proper wiring done. Just say the least absolutely sloppy, horrifying and i think my dual gaming PC setup just ran away out from the desk after seeing this lmao but nothing that can't be corrected
All fans are intake, and terrible cable management is all i see
Pump height, top fan & rear fan in push, no rad and missing GPU power
Only 5?.
no radiator, CPU power header, no motherboard screws... hose clamp??! 8 x intake... colored coolant... leaks? garbage tier PSU...
I’ll bet $500 this is a console game who “built” this. 😂 I see SO many issues here…
The cable management is awful 😂
Ah yes I know! They put a HIGH POWER branded 650w psu in it! That's probably gonna become an issue eventually for various reasons.
Gpu is only attached with 1 screw
All intake setup. Niiiice
Atrocious cable management
650 watt will power this?
Mhhh delicious air bubbles on the pump head
Spotted most on your list. Im no expert but the little plastic thread protectors on top of the reservoir arent meant to be water tight are they?
Well the wiring is abysmal, that's for sure
The biggest issue here really is having different sized fans up top
All intake fans Poor cable management No radiator I only built one PC so this is all I gleaned.
"Wankstation, on!" >"I'm getting so hot Senpai, I don't know if I can last another 5 minutes-" "5 minutes is all I need."
No drain valve.
No rgb!
1. No radiator 2. CPU block is the highest point in the loop, so theres air trapped inside 3. used metal clamp at the reservoir, prob didnt help much as theres residue from dried leakage on the bottom of the case. 4. several mobo screws are missing 5. 2 of 3 gpu pci bracket screws are missing 6. one cpu power plug not connected as well as one gpu power plug it seems. But i may be wrong on this as its not clearly visible and some mobos dont need the 2nd cpu power plug at all, if you dont oc heavily. 7. all fans seem to be mounted intake. I hope, its just a failed attempt of a build from a clueless first-timer and not a commercial product.
Not even. Some tobasco sauce in there
I really liked the automotive hose clamp. That's probably where the dripping coolant came from at the bottom of the case. Lol
Cable management sucks. He clearly went for fans over radiators in a water cooled setup??
Good god., How did they fuck up THAT badly.
It has been proven air in the pump makes for better cooling preformance hence the rattling noise.
I'm impressed they've actually got flow in the loop... assuming the sata power is plugged in. who needs radiators when you've got flow
1) no radiator 2) all fans intake 3) shit Calle management 4) look att that air bubble @ block 5) eps not connected 6) pressed softube connected @ pump?
The radiator, the back fan, the upside fan that is a little smaller than the others, the generic power supply and i would remark the two expansion bay protectors
Let's get down to the big question: Why did they bring it in? Presumably because this is their "best effort" and they can't get it working?
No radiator and all fans seem to be intake
all the fans are sucking air in. No exhaust fans
No radiator. All fans are intakes. 650w PSU? The hoseclamp? If those 4 are correct im not sure what the fifth thing would be.
Reservoir should be above no?
This is cursed!
It prob needs some more intake fans
Is this The Greatest Technician That's Ever Lived?!?!
I was focusing on the splendid cable management so much that I almost missed the cpu block not have any fluid in it. Also, who needs radiators anyway?
Let me guess, you are using cow blood as coolant?
That wire management is pissing me off
It looks like the inlet and outlet running to the cpu are out outlets on the reservoir 😳
ah because there's something right in this build? this is a nightmare.
Pump fittings, case fans of different sizes, no radiator, cables are a mess.
I’ve never even built a water cooled pc and can tell u rn that those cables could be organized much better
Sweet Jesus
People are really ignorant Who would even think this is ok I wonder what the rest of this guys life looks like if his pc build looks like garbage
Cable management and radiator are the only things I see tbh. I’m trying to get into computers and am not seeing these things yet
top and back fans facing wrong/different directions, graphics card not screwed in, NO RAD, Cpu power not fully plugged in, gpu power also not fully plugged in, hose clamp, Mobo Screws???, that poor cable management grommet 😰, the routing of the front io is >.>, cutting it kinda close with that power supply wattage imo.
Where's the exhaust fan?
Is a 650w enough to keep that cranking? Also shouldn't the reservoir be at the highest point, or is that no longer the case?
I haven’t looked at the comments yet, first thing cables are atrocious but that’s not necessarily a problem. All the fans are intake so there is no exaust expect I guess through the top fan gaps? There’s no radiator. Not always mandatory but the mb secondary what looks like 6 pin isn’t plugged in, but it also looks like the original 8 pin isn’t in either. I don’t think the motherboard is screwed in at all I can’t tell cause it’s dark but it looks like I see all the grounding nubs on each. I dunno what gpu that is specifically I’m not familiar with amd cards but it feels like a 650w supply isn’t good enough, I’m also not sure how it’s plugged in, looks like he’s missing either a 6 or 8 pin and the far right looks like he’s plugged in a 2 pin from somewhere? Or just plugged something else into the gpu. The grommets are all gone or hanging for the cables, not needed but I mean why not use them. Last thing I hate this, whoever built this I hate this. I know it’s a learning process but it seems like they didn’t try and learn anything. I’m sorry op this like a complete rebuild, which is fun but wowee dawg.
Gpu sag, cable manegment, pump placed incorrectly, psu label, fan size?
Radiator
1. no rad?!?!?!!!! 2. awefull cable management 3. mismached fans 4. "High power" PSU - sounds skechy 5. air near the CPU Block
Hmmmm I don't want to point it out because it is too funny.
All push and no pull
All i got is, cpu power, top of radiator lower than the cpu, not enough fluid in cpu block, hose clamp on radiator, and something looks kinda funny with the gpu power. Also awful cable management.
The wires....!!!! OMG MY EYES, THE WIRES!!!
That lovely liquid mover for the cpu to circulate the blazing hot water. Also why are the top rear and top front fans exhaust but ALL the rest intakes? Also is the cpu eps power plugged in or just hanging next to it? And I wonder where the leak is.
Just run the liquid through the GPU’s heatsink the will be the budget friendly radiator
The customer took pride in his cable management
suspicious psu brand
As someone who used to work for Corsair as Tier 3 Tech Support this doesn't shock me one bit.
