Dual Xeon Watercooling
Dual Xeon Watercooling
I understand that this request has been made before, though it was nearly five years ago and I hope more suitable options have now emerged.
I aim to construct a new setup using two E5 2600 v3 Xeons inside a Coolermaster Cosmos II case, seeking the optimal water cooling arrangement.
Currently, I utilize the drive bays that could otherwise accommodate a radiator, though I’m not aiming to overclock the CPUs. My priority is ensuring they operate at peak efficiency, particularly under heavy workloads.
I frequently engage in parallel processing, utilizing both GPUs and CPUs from time to time.
I believe maintaining the stock cooling on the GPU cards—three 7970 units—will suffice for my needs.
The primary motivation for watercooling is to guarantee maximum cooling performance without overburdening the system board, as I’ve experienced firsthand how challenging it can be to detect minor board damage.
I’m evaluating options such as this setup for each CPU and wondering if there are more effective alternatives.
Any guidance or recommendations for shelf solutions would be highly appreciated.
