Corsair 540 "Cube" Sandy Bridge E/SLI Titan

Thanks for the reply, I've got my 780 Ti at 1.21 running clocks of 1250/3850 stable but wouldn't mind a bit more voltage play :)
 
Nice work :)

So we're getting there. The only few snags to tidy up are that before Christmas I didn't get any 90 degree fitments, which I do need to sort out some of the odd tubing sections now. The worst is the inlet of the top rad, I only had 45 degree fittings so I have to loop the whole thing around to route it out the back. The tubing is a little long too - but I'll leave it that way until I pick up a good pump at some point.

Just a few snaps of things going in. There is a reason I'm missing a top titan, it's primarily because it decided to go pop. For what reason, I don't know, but it's being sorted now so no worries. I'm bracing it for the time being as removing the waterblock itself would mean I can't even use the system as I don't have a second blank and remove both is a HUGE pain in the butt as the O rings are almost impossible to fix in the right place on these new design ones.

Top is an ST240 rad with push/pull fans with air exhausting out the top, front is an ST360 rad with the fans pulling in as an intake. Have one rear SP120 acting as an exhaust too. I would really like some fans intaking from the bottom but I don't think I want to hack away at the case - I'm not huge on messing with cases like that. Stock fans are all removed. Damn thing is already full of dust though!!





























 
Yep, hence the statement at the start - I have no 90 degree fittings as specialtech were closed! Need to order them next week.
 
Liking the night shots, that hose at the top deffo needs sorting, is that a loop from the rear section coming up to feed the radiator?

Facebooked anyways but will be great to see it evolve

Yeah, the OCD in me is currently kicking me in the face with that hose. Specialtech owe me a few parts so I'm going to order from them when they open again which isn't until around thursday I don't think!!
 
Its beautiful!

Also: To the moon :D

Hope my 540 will look remotely like that when I'm done with my watercooling project ;)
 
Awesone build! I'd like to get a 540 for my first watercooling setup.

Can you tell me your full load CPU and GPU temps? I just want to know if two ST30s ( 240&360 ) are enough for a 6-core Intel CPU and a single titan-like card, with noctuas NF F12 ( only push )

Full load I'm not sure with just a single card if I'm honest! With two Titans they would hit around 55ish on full chat, CPU wouldn't often go above 62ish. This was testing them separately though, as when running benches SLI cards can take quite a bit of CPU, so trying to run a CPU bench test at the same time as a GPU one ends up dropping the GPU usage because the CPU can't keep up.

At idle, GPU around 23-26, CPU is around 27-36.

Thank you!

So i think that a ST30 360mm and a XT45 240mm would be enough for me :cool:
 
Finally got word that my original titan is heading back to me.

That now means I can get inside and sort the stupid hoses out as well thank god.

Update to come in the next few days.
 
Looks amazing keep these updates coming! I'd love to see a Mini-ITX or Matx cube case in the same style. Should look nice for a smaller built or htpc. But any way this is off-topic :p
 
Looking Good so far, will be better once you get the loop tidied up. Look forward to the upate once you have you titan back.
