i was under the assumption that the coldplate itself is also acting as a thermometer (changes conductivity across it as the temperature changes) but that would conduct to the IHS and the ground plane so i guess this is the closest we can get to 'cold plate' temp measuring
@halrichard1969 Жыл бұрын
Correct. It also seems rather inefficient to place the thermistor any closer as it would interfere with either conduction or cooling flow or both. In the end of a X vs X comparison, the ultimate comparison is the final temps of either the CPU or GPU depending on which you are testing.

I like this channel a lot. As to the QD's (I use the latest Koolance QD3 version). I find it convenient to orient QD's such that QD junctions are arranged to be uniformly flow oriented. I find this helpful for maintenance and to ensure that I reconnect the loop correctly. One possible convention is the QD;s are arrange such that coolant always exits the male connector and always enters the female connection. I have a many such junctions and found this helpful. I construct a loop from scratch, I tend to create a diagram indicating the orientation of the various connectors. This helps assess what connectors may need to be ordered.

"built-in cold plate thermal sensor" tells me that it's supposed to measure the temperature of the cold plate. You know, like a useful measurement point in between the CPU temperature and the water temperature. But the way it's set up, it's not going to be an accurate measurement at all. It's not a water temp sensor, because it will conduct some heat from the cpu. It's not a cold plate sensor because it's like 3cm away from the heat source. That means it's useless marketing garbage, just like everything else Corsair makes

Just get an AiO to start, with how big the coolers of modern GPUs are, they are cold enough. Or get a Hybrid card if you have the room in your case. You should plan your build with watercooling in mind, like how many rads you can have in your case vs how many you actually need, most Waterblock comes down to which one you like more visually as they all perform good enough, 1 - 5 degrees from eachother, don't cheap out on watercooling stuff either, no need to buy the most expensive either. Don't need Dozens of fitting nor hard tubbing either. Though if you are just cooling the CPU with it, jist get an AiO like I mentioned, they are good enough, cheap vs custom, easy to install, no need to refill unless it is a crappy one... just set and forget kind of deal. Make sure the pump block is not the highest in the loop, same with custom, always have the pump at lowest part or right next to the water reservoir and don't mix metals either if you are doing custom, copper block with copper rads or aluminum block with aluminum rads, aluminum parts are usually cheaper... though is up to you, EK starter pack is aluminum based and is very cheap, decent startin point, don't know if that is available yet as it has been a while...

I feel like a zig-zag pattern would be more ideal for coldplates. But that is more difficult to mass-produce. This time of thin structure is easier, since you can just make a 'shaving comb' to manufacture the fin-stack once you've milled down the surroundings to right depth. How ever, I do believe their water distribution is quite good. But I think their current design is more suited for lower flow rates than higher. A higher flow rate in such a non-restricting CPU block simply harms its performance, I reckon. It would be interesting if you added a 'valve' before the flow sensor. So you can play around with the flow rates and see what happens if you start on low flow rates and increase.

@@MyklCarlton I am taking a bit of inspiration from the Aquarium hobby and how people look at the use of UV bulbs. Light transmission and Heat Transmission isn't too different. Generally, in Aquariums, you want slower moving water across a heating or UV bulb because it provides more time for the energy to attach itself to the water column. In Aquariums, the complexity is less but the flow is generally unhindered through the components. The current design of this Corsair block is similar in that it doesn't really restrict flow. Therefore, I believe a slower moving water across the CPU block might be better for it. In fact, I believe it would be better if there was a slower moving water current over the CPU with a pass-through, that just returns to the radiator. Basically, high flow through Radiator, Low flow through CPU.

It will be too slow to run pump speed correctly, and probably too quick for fan speed. If it were closer to the center of the coldplate and bonded to it properly, you could get a delta T vs the die to confirm a good mount, but as it is it does nothing. Meanwhile, if you want a sensor for fan speed, putting it at the radiator inlet is ideal.

I'm surprised Corsair hasn't taken Aquacomputer's business, they already have desktop software so the hard part is already done. Temp sensors are dirt cheap, they could put one at water inlet, one at outlet, and include a few air temp sensors, and feed it all into their USB hub. Mid-tier motherboards don't include a temp sensor input anymore so Aquacomputer's market got bigger. With the latest hardware using so much power it seemed like water cooling might start making sense, but instead of innovating they've just raised prices. Rather than do maintenance on my loop I recently got a $40 Thermalright air cooler and my 13900K gets 40K Cinebench vs ~40.5K on water.

Flow rate is measured as a maximum (directily proportional to pipe diameter), in order to measure a restriction it would require a pump flowing water at its the control loops maximum speed, and then adding something to the loop in-order to observe a restriction. An example of this for memory would be: a single drop of water can move through a 1mm tube and a 30mm tube at the same speed, but a LAKE cannot move through tube at the same speed as another tube.

Hmmm on the notion of measuring the cold plate, could it be extrapolated through the use of: * The temperature probe that's as near as the cold plate and effectively measures the water temperature * Use the temperature of the CPU cores and assume that the IHS is mounted with the prescribed mounting pressure Then use a parametric temperature model of the cold plate, that is gathered through the use of thermal simulations/material properties and real-world simulation. Thus be-able to proactively estimate the temperature of the cold-plate real time. I think the use of such data can be used to more effectively tune the necessary flow rate and fan speed. On the other hand, it may be overengineering as the thermal conduction of heat ,for such a concentrated component such as a CPU is constrained by physics.

The cold plate spot to spot delta is presumably going to be quite minimal since it is metal. Having the sensor in the middle would be incredibly stupid since the cooling finstack/coldplate etc would have to be altered in ways that would negatively affect the one task it has, cooling the cpu it's mounted on. The point of a sensor like this is NOT to measure the CPU temp or have some actually accurate scientific measurement of objective reality, the point is to know when something in your loop is malfunctioning like the pump for the most part but potentially some other gunked up or messed up component restricting the flow to the CPU block, which would cause the temp to go up and ideally trigger some kind of alarm and/or system shutdown and notifying whoever is responsible that a malfunction or degradation of some sort has occurred in the cooling system. In my opinion anyway. That is how I look at it, this has now become a contender for the spot as cooling block in my system but I'm likely going to go with another block that does VRM's too.

The sensor mounted in this way could not measure precisely flow rate, if you read manual it says you have to keep at least 20-30cm (i don't remember the number precisely) of straight pipe to read flow correctly

I hope someone tests this to confirm, would be an interesting watch

I also remember this from their old sensors but with this one I checked the manual prior to installation and it doesnt say this. "integrate the sensor into your cooling system, directions of flow can be freely chosen. For optimum performance and minimum noise, the buttons and the white illuminated area of the sensor should be facing upwards." aquacomputer.de/handbuecher.html?file=tl_files/aquacomputer/downloads/manuals/high_flow_NEXT_en.pdf

Since he measured both the block in the same setup the flow difference will be the same......he measured the DIFFERENCE between the blocks.... Zzzz.....

It says "Built-in cold plate sensor" and that is quite clear and exactly what they deliver - it does not say "sensor built into the coldplate". That said it is not all that useful when the sensor is so far away from the contact-patch and behind a water-section. Meh.

Maybe, the difference is seen with a little higher flow? The changes might need that to do better.

about the noise from the pump, in my case the Hydro X XD5 I found out that some higher speeds made less noise, there's a question of resonance both inside the pump-res and mounted on your pc I'm sure...anyway, instead of running it at mid speed which is the worse for me too try a higher rpm desktop use I'm around 2000rpm but for "silent" gaming I run 3800rpm below that I can hear it, it's the beauty of using corsair commanders and icue...open your side panel, set speed to percentage and slide the line up and down until you find a speed that sounds right for you, I also did that with my 10 fans so am using weird rpms like 1537

I have a 14900K stock with no lapping. Would it be better to run the Velocity2 without a contact frame or something like the Heatkiller with a contact frame? I see EK offers a contact frame for the velocity2 but at a hefty price. I should mention I have never done a custom loop I have always ran AIO's and I'm running a 1/4 HP chiller with no rads or fans in this new setup. I guess I'm asking what block would work well for me? I'm still not sure on what pump to use because the chiller requires 1000 L/H and to get that out of a D5 would be too loud if at all possible from my limited understanding.

Not worth. Temperature sensor have to be in contact with coolant, if going to report as such. Otherwise is waterblock temperature sensor.

flow sensors in fuel systems on aircraft have to be calibrated in a long process after installing them, is that type calibration not needed in the flow sensor you bought?

What is your take on placement of intake/outtake and how it loops vs where the cores are? Potential differences would be something I would be interested in.

Would they perform differently with more head pressure or flow rate? You might have hit the sweet spot where they perform identical with the rate you're running.

@StaleRolfSbe Жыл бұрын
Perhaps you should measure power draw on the pump as well as flow rate. If power draw increases on the pump, it could indicate restriction.
@helium5912 Жыл бұрын
Not how that works.
@StaleRolfSbe Жыл бұрын
How so?@@helium5912 If the pump speed is pwm controlled. The pump setting is a percentage of max rpm if I am not mistaken. This means that with resistance to the flow, the pump will work harder to maintain the same rpm/flow, and thus draws more power.
