loving this build!!

Merci !!!

Will be eventually scaling back this build....will still be under water but moving into a smaller case. Sometime down the road...I picked up a Lian Li OC Dynamic XL ROG case and installed my old components...9900K...Maximus XI-Extreme etc, nice quality case to work with....will try for 3*360 Rads in it...

Nice build. Surprised you didn't go hard tubing, its just so much more clean. If I were to choose soft, 100% black tubing. Looks super clean. Great scores on your benches too. Your 12900K was definitely a better bin than mine.

Thanks Glor1
 
Yeah simply cant be bothered with Hard Tube....that level of aesthetics Im not looking for at all..flex is too easy.....I'm more about performance...although the Hard Tubing indeed is "super clean"!!
 
I can bench no problem with this 12900k P 5.3 E 4.1 reasonable voltages.....5.4 all core takes big leaps though!
 
Funny I was just looking at ordering some more flex tube and will likely go matte black this time around ;)

I see you too are from the land of the Creepy F***ing Dictator, as Joe Rogan so eloquently put it.
 
With that said, you likely order from Daz. I ordered 10' of matt black EK soft tubing from Daz. I have yet to have used it. But have been told it is nasty stuff. So maybe look at a different brand. I was going to use it for my last build (i9-10850k/RTX3070 Ultra), but went with Tygon instead.
 
And I agree with you on using soft tubing VS hard. Hard tubing does look a lot cleaner if executed proper. However, I have also seen some complete abortions with hard tubing. My builds are form and function. Aesthetics are secondary. I do take pride in my builds and make them as pleasing to the eye as I can though. But performance is always paramount.

Yep completely agree on all points ....even the Dictator ;)

Thanks Donta79....was hoping to replace the 3080Ti w an Evga 4080.....but looks like will probably be a Strix OC next round!

Great Superposition bench mark score .  "18954", especially at only 46C .  Really great temp. control 
It tops my 12900K + Gig Z690 + RTX 3090 FTW that scored "17062" at 71C with the same settings .
Unfortunately I had to use a 2K monitor, so it's not exactly the same test .
 
To the Moon ... with unbeatable graphics quality !

Thanks man....its a pretty robust Custom Loop w significant rad space. Last night it got down to 11c here outside ....my window adjacent to my tower was left open.
I booted up my system to find the 3080Ti idling at 10c .....would have been a great time to run some benchmarks ;)
