custom water cooler 6700k.......

I can say an Aquaero is some of the best money you can spend for water cooling if you have it to spare. I love mine. There is just so much you can do with them.

btw Kong, do you remember my issue with the EK fans? Turns out the PWM frequencies dont play nicely with the Aquaaero.

Tested several others via local store since I took my controller with me to show them the problem. EK Vardars although great performers did not sound nice on the controller. The frequency whine is incredible. All other ones they had were fine.

There lies my issue no bays to mount it in as I put the third 360 in the front to allow me to have hdd slots lol got just under 10 tb of storage


I have a nzxt sentry mesh but as said the whine on this type of controller is atrocious

you dont need a front panel, there is a version to mount it hidden inside i think. just hook it up via USB and use the well detailed software.

I think JR23 did this in one of his builds and looked outstanding.

So which do you suggest?? I have a total of 19 fans 18 120's and a single 140

AquaAero all the way my friend. You will need help in the beginning as their software is quite simple, yet complex as hell if you have strict cooling requirements on how you want pump flow, fans speed, auto shutoff etc.

Kong has great experience with it and has helped me out in the past so he can assist you i guess.

I'm thinking based on your comment about the bay that the Aqua Aero LT without display is more for you.

Kong what do you suggest?

If those fans are pwm, you can run every single one off 1 channel.

I currently have 12 on channel 1,
3 chassis on channel 2
2x pumps on channel 3.

You can even connect their fabwerk LED lighting if thats your thing, pump flow meters from them via their aquabus connectivity.

Basically they open up some crazy solutions all of which can be controlled by this little baby

Don't need pump control it's set and forget plus I cut off the rpm wire to aide in cable management

AC 6 LT/XT etc is still the best on the market in my opinion. outstanding controller even for just fans.

That is odd. I know the first revisions of the 6 did not like more than 5 Corsair fans. That was fixed with a capacitor revision.

The LT would be great. Make sure you don't need to buy a mounting kit for it. If they would have made the 6LT when I bought mine, that's what I would have went with. Aquasuite is awesome for the control it gives you. Add in temp probe support, and how you can build fan and temp curves.

But make sure you get the 6LT. The 5 will be a little cheaper, but it is not digital, runs less equipment, and gets hot.

What about the grid+ v2
