That part of the case, or did you put it there?

quick forge Jan 11, 2022, 2:05 AM

Enermax SQUA, they're swapped onto a 3090 Xtreme b/c the included fans SUCK

quick forge Jan 11, 2022, 4:41 AM

which... wasn't straightforward

polar osprey Jan 11, 2022, 4:41 AM

#

i’m digging the cotton candy rgb vibe

#

Giga used reversed mini connectors for their fans

polar osprey Jan 11, 2022, 4:42 AM

#

really?

#

damn

quick forge Jan 11, 2022, 4:42 AM

#

so they're not just JST 4-pin mini connectors (common for GPU fans, easy to convert), they're male on the fan side, and female on the GPU side, which is the reverse on how like... every fan ever works.

polar osprey Jan 11, 2022, 4:43 AM

#

wait then how exactly did u get it to work

#

with some adapter?

quick forge Jan 11, 2022, 4:43 AM

#

so I have JST female coming out of the GPU, so I did a Male JST to female PWM cable (cost me like $6), then I'm backfeeding that into a 3-to-1 PWM splitter

#

so all 3 male ends of the PWM splitter are connected, and the female end, what you'd normally connect to a board or whatever, is just tucked

#

that’s sick, nice build man

quick forge Jan 11, 2022, 4:45 AM

#

thanks, I have more franken3090 pics if you want haha

#

#

@polar osprey you ever see those connectors on a fan before? heh

polar osprey Jan 11, 2022, 5:08 AM

Watercooled gpu?

#

Looks amazing

#

How are the temps?

quick forge Mar 21, 2022, 11:24 AM

#

Core temps are good. Junction temps suck

#

Hits 97-98 on the memory under load

wise sluice Mar 21, 2022, 11:26 AM

#

Interesting

#

Isnt 3090 well known for warmer-than-comfortable vram?

quick forge Mar 21, 2022, 11:32 AM

#

Yes

#

But other water-cooled 3090s hit lower junction temps

Eh
