Curious, are those rigs build for folding or have a man cave for gaming?  Are you a owner of a computer shop?

My Titan and GTX 980 4-Way are my main Gaming being the Titan the Primary.
They all a for Folding and Crunch (BOINC) including my GTX 980 Hybrid Rig my 2P and redo of my 4P and last a T630 with two GTX 1080 Cards.
I do this all for fun, building or as same call assembling computers that is.
But to I hope to help find a cure along with my Teammates.
No I do not own a Computer Shop.
 
I do live in a man cave though.
I am Retired ATM.

About Bitspower Aquapipes. They do make 16-22mm models too just for the setup like yours. I don't know about availability where you are, but they do make them - http://www.highflow.nl/aansluitingen/fittingen/bitspower/silver-shiny/bitspower-silver-shining-mini-dual-g1-4-adjustable-aqua-link-pipe-16-22mm-bp-dg14aalpm.html - Aquapipes cover 2/3/4 SLI/CF no problems.
 
Also I particularly like Bitspower quick couplings - D-plugs - http://www.highflow.nl/aansluitingen/snelkoppelingen/overige-nl/bitspower-premium-black-sparkle-d-plug-set-normal.html . You get them in 15, 20 and 25.4mm. Perfect for the job of 3 SLI or connecting blocks on VRMs. Super-duper tight fit, never had a leak on those - o-rings are really beefy and it's not easy job to separate them.
 
I admit. Getting Bitspower fittings or stuff always makes my wallet cringe and running wild. Mega expensive stuff when compared to competition... and for a good reason it's so expensive (unlike Asus offerings LOL). I usually try to get EK as cheapest high grade stuff (because of location), but EK selection is quite limited if you need something specific. For next build I will try new Alphacool Eis-whatever line. These are supposed to be Barrows just with different branding. Thinking about this more like "Bitspower for slightly less money". Heh!

Once you go Bitspower, you can't go back.

Thanks, Without pressure 15mm is what I have found to be the max between Blocks.

While I did order the Bitspower as posted in #36
I think I like what I now have installed and I have good water flow, so for now I will keep it the way it is.

But you can go sideways. ha, ha
 
In most cases anyway it's true. Exceptions for me are that dual D5 top which is known to be extremely restrictive while being very (most) expensive to acquire, and single D5 tops have problem with very limited space for fittings (13/10 - 1/2" is max). Some upgrade is long overdue with BP D5 tops considering how many folks moved away from thin walled, soft tubing to something more beefier and durable.
 
That aside, BP is in class of it's own I think.

I said I would give them a try and they are about 2mm to big with 4 Graphics Cards with HC Blocks.

Brand New Swiftech G¼ Male-Male Lok-Seal Short Extension Fitting (11-18mm Range) - Black

 





You should never double stack an oring. If they designed it that way, that was a poor design.

Most do have 2 O-Ring Slots that is why their are 2 O-Ring. I have 5 Different Brands and all 5 have 2 Inner O-Rings.
Myself I did not stack them that is how they come.
