Notes

The Story

The first time i saw the DG-87, i fell in love with it. But with all that space, a single card wasn't an option :) so why not two? 1080? Yeah let's do this! In the mean time i've decided to skip the X99 platform, really too expensive. First i've built it without watercooling but i soon saw that the main 1080 was getting hot (the cards are too close too have a good air flow) and dropping the boost clock even at full fan speed. So my watercooling project was born.

After weeks reading reviews and making sketches, i've started to list every part needed. My first goal was to go for hard tubing but the overcost was a little too much, so i stayed soft and very glad with it :)
