What are your temps after couple of hours with full load?

Idle temps are at around 28-35c
Underload (mind you I'm only using a single 2x140mm radiator to cool both CPU and GPU) range at 45-48c

Still really not bad.

What is the ambient temp?
ambient room temp yesterday was about 82f (it's been hot and the game room is upstairs, no AC. live at the beach) The ambient temp or outside temp of the card taken with a thermal scope from the back plate and the WB side read 50-52c I was surprised how cool the backplate was under load (to the touch) usually you can cook a steak on those back plates when they heat up.

Delta is a tad high, but the rad is the limiting factor there, overall I would say it is doing pretty good!

Sorry. But, a 980 to a 1080 is a big jump. You just cant be pleased. That is the difference.

I dont get it. Did he remove the led geforce logo from the FE cooler and installed it on the waterblock ? I never saw an EK water block with the geforce logo on the side like all the reference air cooler. How is that possible.

Some people aren't afraid to take their cooler apart for a nest effect. It looks as if the OP is one of those users that isn't afraid to take things apart.

I have a few extra GEFORCE leds bars from previouse reference coolers. It's extremely easy to dismantle a reference cooler and remove the LED bar. I had only to dremel a hole through the EK block to feed the connector for the LED bar.

this type of loop is a dual split. If you can figure it out, you shouldn't dare build a custom loop.
here the same type loop with my previous 980 block. It splits at the GPU block feeding the CPU and GPU both simultaneously then exiting on the other side of the block.
Well, you didn't show that in the first post did you? I guess I shouldn't have done this then.  But you have an OK beginners build I guess.

Not everyone is a professional at building custom water loops. Not everyone gets it perfect the first time. My first loop and build was an absolute disaster visually, but it performed flawless. My last few were beautiful, until they leaked. People learn along the way. There is no need to criticize anyone for what they have accomplished. The first time I saw a GPU/CPU parallel loop was when EK hosted it on their FB page, and I made the same inquiry.. Rather than going critical because I didn't understand, they simply responded "it's parallel, the pressure is even in both blocks" and it immediately made sense.. Rather than going critical is the key component.. P.S. DustinGG You inserted a picture directly in the middle of your text. Stones and Glass houses don't mix for anyone. My point rests below in bold. I figured it out and I still build loops. :-P Keep in mind "custom loops" don't have to consist of anything parallel.. They consist of the end user building something not manufactured by a company.. that makes it custom. If you can figure it out, you shouldn't dare build a custom loop.

Well, I had to stop my hardline bending because my heat gun broke so I finished with some soft tubing I had laying around while my parts are on order. I also need to do a new 24 pin because it is too short. But, none the less, you're not a pro. Get over yourself. edit: I used some descriptive words that were censored, too bad.

Everyone Absolutely has an opinion. My first custom loop: (my opinion is that soft tubing is the easy way out, but I was barely learning)  Most recent custom loop: (What you can't see is the disaster of cables in the back of the case) (P.S. Upgraded blocks and Lower loop, but only have a bad angle for the picture)   The newer blocks (these are 700 series blocks with the straight pass through) weren't quite as efficient as the newer 900 series and 1000 series blocks that have the jet plates in them. Going from the 900 series where the jet plate was introduced up to the 1000 series shouldn't have changed the performance of the block, but the wattage and heat output of the card should have been lower this generation. Not much innovation can be done to a piece of copper with ambient water temps running around.

don't want to bash anyone's egos, but I find watercooling to be a luxury more than anything. It's not necessary, and it just causes scenarios like this. While I would be interested in doing it, taking the time to water cool everything, I find it's not necessary. I do have an AIO for the CPU, but that's all. So am I am a rookie? no, not even that, pure newbie that knows crap about watercooling, but that's not going phase me at all, because I know my PC rocks. Everybody is some kind of pro in some way on here. We have all built our PCs, forget about what people say on here., but when people on here have good advice, I take it to heart. That's all.

Yeah a wattercooled build just need to fit for the owner :-) I can change my colors everyway i want, but for me it looks best with red / blue. Taking the LED´s white also it nice .jpg)

water cooling either closed or custom loop is essential if you want to overclock and maintain higher clock speeds, basically getting the most out of your hardware. Air cooling is limiting.

For me, during winter, watercooling is essential. That is when I move into a room with the windows open, and the fans set to 80% and allow frigid air to cool the loop, and try to keep my loop right around 0c. During the summer, it does keep the system cooler.
