Since this will be my first custom water loop build I will start with soft tubing.
CORSAIR OBSIDIAN 1000D BUILDS PRO
A Heatkiller IV Pro Copper Ni CPU block.A Heatkiller RTX 2080 TI acryl Ni RGB GPU block.EK-ACF Black Nickel fittings/splitter/ball valves/extenders.two EK-CoolStream PE 480 Radiator (front mounted).I mainly use the rig for gaming, but when working from home, I use it as a workstation. Maybe the system is a bit overkill, but since my current system is 5 years old, I plan to use this for a long time as well. The memory I have already bought, since it seems the prices will start to climb again, so I got these cheap (I hope). Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Formula (with EKWB waterblock integrated).I will replace this system with an AMD build in September/October when the 3950X 16-core comes out. My main workstation/gaming rig (which is old): I think I'll use only three, bottom, top, and in the back of the case.Ĭurrently the only system that is in there to stay is a my FreeNAS consisting of: Although I'm not so sure where to put the LED strips yet. So I ordered 8 ML120 pro's for the front, 3 ML140 pro's for the top, and a Corsair RGB LED Lightning PRO expansion kit.
CORSAIR OBSIDIAN 1000D BUILDS HOW TO
Thanks to Zotty I knew what to do with the RGB lightning and how to connect all the stuff. Initially I had no clue what to do with it, I wanted a water cooled system for a very long time and as this case being way oversized, I now definitly needed something to fill up all that space :-) But holly, the size of the box it came in was huge :eek: But I never really used the space of that case.
My previous case was a Phanteks Enthoo Primo, so the size of the Corsair didn't scare me that much. I fell in love with it in an instance, since I really dig the glass and brushed alu. I bought the case in May 2019 when I saw a build being done on Paul's Hardware (youtube). For my main system I even have to wait until September/October. Note that it is still work in progress since currently I'm awaiting parts. So I like to share my experience as well, since I ran in some trouble along the way. I learned a lot from the kind folks on this forum. I like to share my Corsair 1000D build with you guys.
