I think Peeeduur saw your comment and decided to produce an upset.
Theorizing a liquid watercooling loop is tedious and time consuming. I have no idea how many fittings and what kind of I need lol. Guess I'm gonna check out the subreddit in hope of a visual guide xd
NZXT H200 case CPU & GPU: ryzen 1600 and 2080 non ti 2 radiators: 120 and 240, both 30mm (more doesn't fit the case) pump is prolly gonna be a DDC 1T reservoir size dependent on where I can fit it Noctua fans soft tubing
no serious overclocking intended, just want a small and silent pc for the occasional gaming excess.
as for tube fittings, G1/4“ thread is the standard so if it says anything else steer clear compression fittings are the usual type and it says the inner and outer diameter on there like 10/16 etc. that simply has to match the diameters of the tubing you get, the inner diameter of the tubing doesn't give any advantages past 10mm since the fluid is restricted by the aforementioned thread size
you need two fittings for each object in the loop, the blocks themselves come with the plugs for any extra inlets/outlets angled adapters 45 and 90 degrees can be helpful especially when working with small cases and can make for shorter tube runs, a couple of those don't really affect the performance
standalone pumps can be quite fiddly too, since I think that comes with 3/8 barbed fittings by default, so you'd have to either get a different housing for the pump or fiddle with 2 kinds of fittings, also for ddc pumps there are heatsinks but I don't know if they actually affect performance, it's really a timesaver to get a ddc pump ready with 1/4" threads
also, I assume you know this but the gpu block has to be exactly right for the model of 2080 you have

i did the math and it's actually cheaper since I live on the 8th floor
Thanks for the advice! I think after what you've said I'll be on the lookout for some angled fittings for the rads as well as gpu. About bends and stuff I won't worry since it's gonna be soft tubing at the start. The note about the pump actually having a different fitting size is entirely new to me (maybe should've read the description more carefully lol), so that's a really good point. The case is rather space constricted, which is why a pump-reservoir combo might just be too tall. I think there's about 10 to max 15 cm from the top of the case to the top of the GPU. Going to measure that at the end of the month when I can put my hands on the case. If there's 15 cm space, I can get a pump/reservoir combo. If not, I'll have to separate them.
The excesses of that game take hold. The plot loses a lot of steam with a shooting gallery that takes place on some dumb island. The narrative attempt to pull the gang apart is clear, but rather than simply having our characters trapped on an Island and doing mundane things to find a ship home, we are part of a revolution and some VIDEO GAME SHIT. It has to be the weakest part of the game that literally could have been skipped over or handled with a much slower narrative.
The final part of the game seems to have adopted some tropes of the Western that I am not fond of being repeated in Red Dead. I will have to see how it plays out, but the narrative has taken a sharp turn which makes the action the hero seem feel fruitless. It fits with nature of the character, but I know I have +10 hours left in the story. I have concerns that 10 hours of downer content will wear me down.
The long and short of it, there is a lot of game here and I’m not sure it is all good. Also the hunting is still a god damn pain in the ass because I cannot god damn see the things I’m hunting from far enough away.

The problem is you know what is coming. It is evident from opening of the game. You know that conflict you are waiting for and the game refuses to pull that trigger. The conflict is good. But I, as the actor in the game, am ready to get into it. But game won’t let me get in that fight.
It is the Game of Thrones problem with villains. Ramsy Bolton is a good villain, but the audience shouldn’t spend years waiting for that villain to get what is coming to him. By the time it happened, it wasn’t enough.
PS: I keep looking at Warframe, because god that game looks weird in ways I like. But I’ve installed it several times and every time it is a wall of pure non-sense and confusing progression.

There's a lot of different kinds of soft tubing, softest ones are easiest to work but they also kink easily, harder ones won't do sharp bends so the angled adapters get you halfway there.
My case is roughly the same size as the H200 and I used 5 or 6 angled adapters for 10 fittings, maybe could've used a few less but that would've taken at least a day longer. And it's really tough to work in such cramped space.
gotta be honest, the smash trailer with dont stop me now fits way too perfectly for not being designed that way, to the point i think it was designed that way.
i mean, even the lyrics fits the trailer lol
It's marketing on an unprecedented meta level
You put the trailer without music, people will put it and share it and you get tons of tweets and rt without needing to pay for the rights
