Hey folks, quick question for anyone running one of these cases with the water-cooling kit designed for it…
I want to do a Hackintosh with the Hadron Hydro case, & I want to use the water-cooling for both the GPU & CPU.
Core parts list:
ASUS ROG Maximus VII Impact motherboard
Intel i7 4790K CPU
16GB Crucial Ballistix Elite RAM (2x8GB DIMMs)
250GB Samsung 850 EVO 2.5" SSD (OS & apps)
2TB Seagate Barracuda 3.5" HDD (Stuff)
EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti (baseline reference model)
For water cooling, I want to stick with EK parts:
EK-FB ASUS M6I monoblock; acetal + nickel
EK-FC Titan X full-cover block; acetal + nickel
EK-FC Titan X backplate; black
EK-XRES 100 DDC 3.2 PWM reservoir/pump combo
EK-DDC heatsink housing; black
EK-Uni Holder w/DDC add-on
Asst. EK compression fittings & 45/90 degree angle adapters; for 3/8" ID x 5/8" OD tubing; black
PrimoChill PrimoFlex Advanced LRT tubing; 3/8"ID x 5/8" OD; clear
PrimoChill anti-kink coil; for 5/8" OD tubing; black
Now that we know what is going into this system, the real question…
What are the dimensions/measurements of the two extender fittings that come with the Hadron Hydro water-cooling kit…?!?
I want to replace them with fittings from EK, just to keep everything uniform, and to keep the black fittings thing going…
I would LOVE to be able to use an EK rad as well, but the way the Hadron Hydro case is set up seems to lock you into the EVGA rad unless you want to start cutting up the case; which I do not. The thing that really sucks is that I am basically paying about 160 bucks or so for a simple 240mm rad with 'special snowflake' fitting locations. The rest of the kit will not be used at all!
I wonder, if I can get EK fittings to make the connection between rad & cooling loop, maybe I can get EVGA to sell me JUST the rad…?!?
Cross-posting this around the web, looking for answers…! ;^p
