Hi

Someone can sell me te kit for 80e but I wanted to Know.

Can I put different fan on the rad like ll120?

Might there be any issues fitting the rad? I have a h500m case

I read that the pump can be very loud, is that true?
Thanks

I was thinking about mouting it on read exhaust.

But being VERY sensitive to noise, my rig is pretty silent on idle, i was afraid that the pump noise will be an issue..

also on the rad, push pull is really worth it? could i use 2xLL120? Where the fans are supposed to be plugued?


Also, since i will receive soon a custom backplate (it's just supposed to be put above), does the backplate from the kit is the same as the one of the card?
Also, does the RGB header remain available?
Thanks !

Ok great ! Could I plug the fans to my Corsair commander too?

For the pump which one is it exactly?

Also, for the backplate, is there another one with the kit or will I use the same I have?

Ok great ! Is this one the right cable?

ok have to find it on a french website now :( I don't want to pay 20€ shippment for 7€ item ><

Oh i do have some last questions.

Even without push pull (i'll see later), the temps will be way better than stock? My main issues are the MEM 2 and MEM 3 going above 80c, with the kit will those be way lower?
Also, can I plug this cable to any fan header ?

The hybrid kit need to be plugued to a 12v RGB header right? Could i plug my rgb backplate on it after ?

I found the cable on amazon and it should be dispatched in an ok delay : https://www.amazon.com/gp...Q8OIL3FGVKZE&psc=1

Thanks

Well if I use the cable to control the pump speed I guess it will be fine?

I have LL on my corsair aio and it's OK

And with only one LL would it still be OK? Maybe I'll get another later but these are quite expensive fans :)

I see so I really should go for push pull configuration then? I was afraid it would be too bulky

Also do the thermal pads needs to be removed /replaced during installation of the kit?

Oh OK thanks but for the installation of the kit thermal pads replacement is not mandatory required then?

I'll try with one LL and I'll see later then. I have those fans in my case for my aio and they do a good job and looks nice :)

With even 1xLL120 which are not the best static pressure one I should see a big improvement?

I have 3 of those on my corsair h150i and they do the job.

Also, about RGB:

The Hybrid kit need to be plug to a rgb on the Motherboard right?
But could I after plug my rgb backplate onto the rgb header of the GPU?

Oh then i will be forced to plug my backplate on the motherboard right

No.
Or you can't actually do it.
 
I mean that shroud uses special rgb header, not standart RGB/D-RGB. And what is your backplate uses? This special header or standart header on the back side of gpu? If standart - then there is no problem at all. If this special - how can you plug it into your motherboard?
 
https://www.evga.com/support/manuals/files/400-HY-1484-B1.pdf - check manual here:

 

So your backplate and gpu shroud uses different rgd headers and there is no problem to connecting them both: actually right now this special header is used to power up your air cooler rgb.
As for question "do I need hybrid kit" - if you like your gpu right now, if you see no issues with noise and performance and worried only about mem2 temps higher than 80C (mem can go up to 95C) - no, you don't need hybrid.
 
But if you can get kit for a cheap price you can just try it and see if it worth it in terms of noise and temperatures. Or if you want your system be much quiter than righ now - in that case you should think about custom waterloop instead of aio sollutions.

In case of hybrid or aio sollution fact that all heat from gpu exhausted outside the case makes impact on cpu and ram temps. Not the fact that it is aio or water and gpu is cooler. But most impact is made by intake airflow.
And you actually don't need your ram be cool, it can stand up to 85C. As for noise - air cooled gpu in general is louder than aio. But this particular hybrid pump is awfull I think :) It is okay for load (masked with fans), but hell anoying at idle. If you have oportunity to check aio before buying - that would be great, you just need something to give it 12v and listen is it loud or not. I had loud pump, most complains about hybrid is loud pump, but some still says that they had quiet pump, so you could be lucky too. Controlling pump with voltage can do the trick, but it still better to check it out before.
 
I had a system with ROG strix and had switched to evga hybrid. In terms of temperatures and noise - gpu temperature dropped from 86C to ~70C and noise dropped a bit from ~3x 90mm 1500 rpm to 2x 120mm 1200 rpm. In terms of ram temps it was fine with aircooled version because of 3x140mm intake, but before that I had 360mm aio mounted as intake, that was restricting it and ram was hot to touch. So I moved cpu aio on top. The only thing is changed after hybrid installation is pch and nvme temp - dropped a bit because gpu was right near it. So with good intake air cooled card can't warm your case and it is warming up components right near it - like pch. Or if you have bad intake - your ram will be hot even at idle, because of bad intake and little air moving around ram, not because "your gpu warming up your case".

After a year or so I switched to custom watercooling and I can mention that it is my first experience with that and I can't say it require a lot of skill, it requier a lot of money though.

 
And in terms of noise this build is much better than aio: I can run some games with my gpu under 50C at fans at ~1100 rpm (water temp is 42C) or under 60C and fans at ~ 800 rpm (water temp is 52C). BUT. That build is hot in terms of case internals. I am dumping ALL the heat (~500w) inside case plus I am restricting airflow with rads. I also tried to switch top rad from exhaust to intake, that did a little improvement in terms of water temps, but next to zero improvement in terms of case temps. So right now my system can run a bit quieter and a bit colder in terms of gpu and cpu temps than aio sollution, but hotter in terms of case temperatures. Or it can run very quiet, like really silent - but very HOT in terms of case temperatures: under silent profile my RAM going up to 60C, HDDs up to 47C, ssds are fine (~36C), nvme is a bit hot (~60C). Before that I doubt I had >45C on my ram (I never checked that, but that was not even warm to touch) and my HDD were at 36C. BUT. 800 rpm. In games. Like rdr2 with dumping about 550w of heat. Both overclocked gpu (~2100) and cpu (5.2). Silent. Yep, my case side panel is about 35C and its warm to touch it, but! 800 rpm! :)
 
And that is not because watercooling harming internal components - but because I wanted to fit system in this particular case and I had no options but to mount rad as intake: there is no many places I can place any rads, only front and top, no bottom mount point, no side mount points.
