I really want you to do a build with this one Jay! You have me seriously interested in doing a water-cooled build at some point. I've always been too scared to do it, but you have made me want to give it a go.
In college, my engineering physics professors opened my eyes to how thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and materials science actually work in real-world systems like the consumer PC space when water cooling started to take off. They dispelled a lot of the misconceptions I picked up and formed on my own in the enthusiast pc builder space. I would love a series where guys like Jay meet with actual scientists and other industry professionals to explain how the thing we as pc users take for granted actually work and how to better make use of them.

"The science doesn't change, just your understanding of it." Great quote. Somewhat open to nitpicking in regards of science not changing but gets the point across poignantly nonetheless.
I'd love to see you do that black & yellow build you were talking about a while back. Use the black 7000D and the new pump/res and make a baller build.
Hi Jay, I did this exact build about a month ago with the exact setup you showed in this video. It was my first hardline custom build. It took about 20 hours. I used the white airflow 5000D and all white components (rads/pump/res/and fans). Thanks for the video!!
The 5000D Airflow case is pure perfection. I watched the build that Jay first used it and I knew I had to have it. I bought one back in May for my new build and I had so much fun putting it all together.
Except when it comes to Samsung monitors, where he will completely sell out and *somehow* not know about, or at least learn about and cover in a separate video how way too many people owning the monitor had QC issues with it and the HDR was completely inexistent.
I usually watch your videos on custom water cooling just for the entertainment, but I’m actually excited to see how a build with this will turn out and what cool runs you can do with it.
They do have the XD7 in white. I think a rigid tubing build in a Corsair 7000D case would look great with frosted tubes and Corsair's chrome fittings. Glad to see others doing distro plates, and this implementation of it looks really good.
Yes, do a build with that! I think it would look awesome, and I would love to see this working, I'm kinda curious how it will lit up with the water and such.
I am literally so close to doing this build in my 5000D I'm stressing since it's my first time and you're answering every question I had about this distro plate thank you!
Hey Jay, to help with the two points you were curious about, if you haven't figured them out yet. The bottom two ports are drain and temperature sensor ports. Either can happen in either port, but that is why they are there. And yes it does come in white
I feel like this reservoir only looks good when mounted on the front, mounting it on the side like in the video leaves the pump revealed which I'm not a fan of.
hmmm, get a case with a full psu / hdd space across the bottom, then mount it so the pump is in that space and doesn’t show from the front? Maybe it will take a case evolution, but they will think of it sooner or later!
I actually have seen that on Corsair's website when it was announced and thought about getting it to put in my Cosmos C700M case with Ryzen 5900X. It was just financial struggle and the part that I would need to take time to rebuild the PC and rip out the current Corsair setup first. Both of which I cannot do right this moment. Cannot wait to see you build a system with that Jay.
Yes!! Please do an all black build with red fluid and lighting! You got me from being scared to open the side panel to build my first pc. Next up is an all watercooled corsair build, it would be awsome to see how its done with this!
I really enjoy watching you build things. I was modding computers back in 1979, with my trs80. It lived in 4 different cases in it's lifetime. I miss that. I just ordered a new machine from origin, to get a video board, I hope to see it in a month or two. Then maybe I will mod the old machine......
Would love to see this as a build. Have the xd5 pump myself. While I like it. I could see a lot of advantages with this. But would love to see a build of it first. And even then I'd wait like a year haha. Just built it a few months ago, and rebuilt like 4 times since. Just did final rebuild 2 weeks ago to add a active backplate to my gpu.
I want one of these to put in my 5000X case. It would work out great in my case and it would finally push me to water cool my pc lol. I have an AIO for my CPU... but my 3080 is still air cooled I'd love to see a build with this res/pump
I was literally laying out my first custom loop, looking into proficiency, and shopping for parts... My back ground sound (this video) started answering my questions for me. Misconceptions answered!! Thank you!!! I was trying to route through a rad after the GPU... before the CPU... while using a distro-plate to retain the largest thermal efficiency like a noob.
I’ve been waiting for you to finally review the XD7 - it was launched and nobody reviewed it - nobody I watch and trust anyways. I have been curious about it since it was launched over six months ago - yes there’s a white version also. I’m new toi watercooling - gathering parts.currently for my very first loop (going hardline cause of you) - and I was concerned with the XD7 being listed as only holding 140ml which I didn’t think was enough fluid to keep temps low in long use sessions, even with the volume in the whole loop. If someone or you can explain how this affects the cooling effectiveness with a small volume I’d be grateful. Can’t wait to see a build incorporating the XD7 distro.
it doesn't change anything substantially really. The onlything that will royally piss you off is when the time will come to fill the loop :) with 140ml, you will have to start/stop/refill a lot of times before the water goes full circle. A bigger reservoir makes it faster. That's about all there is to it for PC use. I have started with a tiny EK pump res about the same volume, and now ith a bigger one that's over 400ml (the loop + reservoir holds just over a liter). The only thing that made a difference in cooling performance is the fans, for obvious reasons. More water means more thermal capacity. the loop will take slightly longer to reach steady state, but the performance itself will not change since it's dictated by your heat exchanger (the rads + fans). Adverse effect : it also takes longer to cool back down after gaming. TL:DR : don't worry about res capacity :p
The liquid cooler takes patience to install, especially when all the wires needs connecting from the cooler, to the cooling fans.Then trying to find a pump header inside your motherboard to connect your liquid cooler to the motherboard.Took me 30 minutes to figure where all the wires go. By reading the instruction manual, inside the liquid cooler box i finally got it :)
I like that this is geared for the 5000 and 7000 cases, leaving 6 fan slots open so you can fill up the case without having to work in a second controller. I personally like the idea of having it set up to the front with MB fans as intake.
Please do a video. Im trying to do a watercooled build but I can't decide on what parts to use for it. You doing a build with this would help have a better understanding of this part, and I believe knowledge is power when it comes to these watercooled builds.
Build!!! Build!!! Build!!! Build!!! Additionally, would it be possible that the bottom ports of the reservoir combo are also inlet/outlet ports for the radiator? It seems to me they aligned perfectly with the front radiator ports... Thanks for the video, guys!
I used this very pump/reservoir combo in my system. Aside from what I feel is a little lax flow pressure in conjunction with the Corsair Commander Pro, it was a very smooth process. My loop (currently) is Pump/Resi to GPU to CPU to Radiator to inlet in a Corsair 5000d. The pump/resi are mounted in the front 360mm area, radiator is mounted (fans on inside pulling air) on the side intake. EDIT: You really need to use BOTH of the bottom drain holes. With the pump facing you, the bottom left port drains the egress loop (output of the pump to your GPU/CPU block and on) while the bottom right port is the reservoir/return section only. The pump in this is an amazingly effective one-way valve essentially.
Documentation states that bottom ports are only for use as drain. You can use the most convenient one for the build. I am accumalting parts to build this and would love to see your build. Also, I am using an Asus z690 Formula MB so I will be cooling MB, CPU, and GPU.
The Corsair 5000-series with that XD7 pump/distro can simultaneously fit the following with an EATX motherboard if one mounts the distro in the front: 2x 360mm radiators (top, side) and 1x 120mm radiator (back). In this configuration, fans may be mounted inside the case on all radiator positions. One can also push/pull the top radiator if one does not mind fans sitting “outside” in the gap between the “top” and the top cover.
Please do more beginner to advanced water cooling guides. Especially if one utilizes the lian li o11 mini Snow White edition so I can copy the work lol. Awesome as always thanks for all the vids Jay.
That's actually a great idea for a distro plate. I just personally hate distro plates because they are a huge pain in the ass to drain. I think they are cleaner and look cooler but my next build will not include one. Servicing my loop will take several hours instead of an hour or 2 because of how long it takes to drain the fluid enough to remove components without spilling.
That would fit perfectly in the side fan mount for the 5000D/7000D without compromising airflow of the front and top fans. That's a hecking cool setup!
What you're trying to explain is the relation thermal gradient and flow rate. That is, if the water loop passes through a 85° GPU plate and then through a 45° CPU plate, it would carry the 85° heat from GPU to 45° CPU and heat it. It doesn't work like that. If the ambient temperature is 24°, the water coming off the radiator will be roughly 25° or 28° C. Upon contact with GPU, it may absorb maximum say 5° to become 30-32° before getting pumped out of the GPU block. This water then goes to CPU and absorb another 4° there and becomes 34-36° and then to radiator where it drops back to 26°. Since this is a continuous loop, the more the flow rate, the more it cools.
To avoid the difference in water temperature over components, I split the flow with Y-connectors. So CPU and GPU get the same cool water from the pump (: 3080ti and 3700x stay below 60c even with OC applied (I know it's useless, but I wanted to try it)
Since I seen the automotive themed PC I've thought about doing a shaved and tucked watercooled PC build . Search shaved and tucked engine bay for reference . Having everything tucked and hidden from view even the hoses , think it would have to be in a smaller case that way it done just look empty as well.
Specific heat of water is 4.2J/Kg. So if the water is pumped at 2l/min (really slow) we have 33g/s going through the loop for a net heat capacity flow of 140W/K. So if you have a total system heat load, the total temp rise through the blocks is just 3.6K. Practically a heat loop distributes all heat evenly through the loop. The heat transport capacity is so huge you can think of the loop as one big enormously efficient heat pipe coupling all your heat sources and radiators.
Jay another good explanation of the loop order stuff, I've heard a heap of them from you, this one I thought was the best, the description of the delta in coolant vs component I hadn't considered, previously the equalising of the loop temperature at a given load was enough, but what you're saying here also makes perfect sense.
I would like to see a build with that. Black case with blue or red fluid would look pretty good. If you go white I think gold would be the best choice. Kinda Roman themed.
Do the black 5000D build! That's what I have for a case and have been considering almost that exact setup :) Also covering how you chose the fittings, adapters, and such would be great
I built and designed cooling systems on air compressors for close to 50 years. I always found it worked much better to send the hot air through a fan cooled radiator. The difference was quite remarkable! I could knock off 15 degrees with liquid coolers but not much more than that. With air coolers, I could take the temp down from 175 degrees, to cool enough to hold a hand on the pipe instantly. Of course, this drops moisture out, then that has to be dealt with. Too bad computers can't seem to do it efficiently.
A distribution block that doubles as reservoir is great. The only thing I'd like to start seeing these manufacturers doing is to make all the RGB cables modular(OPTIONAL!). Make it so RGB cables can plug in if you want them while allowing you to remove the mess of wires if you do not.
Flip it so pump goes into where cable management is. Would leave plenty of space for extra fans then for the front ;). Might have to get creative with tubing and a drill though for that to work and select a case with a deep cable management area.
Hey Jay I just want to let you know I really appreciate what you do. I saw your beginner's guide to water and cooling and I think it's awesome, now could you possibly do in advance water cooling video please?
Yes! Do a build with this. Would be cool to see.
Heir, will you do a Warhammer 3 build in the coming months before release?

I have that case and that distro/pump combo. It's really nice. The bottom ports are drain and temp sensor ports.
Really like the look of that. See how neat you can get the runs with a build. Will hopefully allow for dead straight tubing across from the res.
What you're trying to explain is the relation thermal gradient and flow rate. That is, if the water loop passes through a 85° GPU plate and then through a 45° CPU plate, it would carry the 85° heat from GPU to 45° CPU and heat it. It doesn't work like that. If the ambient temperature is 24°, the water coming off the radiator will be roughly 25° or 28° C.

This water then goes to CPU and absorb another 4° there and becomes 34-36° and then to radiator where it drops back to 26°. Since this is a continuous loop, the more the flow rate, the more it cools.
Yes!!! I want to see what looks like in use.

Having everything tucked and hidden from view even the hoses , think it would have to be in a smaller case that way it done just look empty as well.
I use that component in my build right now it actually works pretty good the only problem is filling it takes a while to get all the air out
do it Jay,. you KNOW you want to!!!! Zero dislikes so that proves everything.
Specific heat of water is 4.2J/Kg. So if the water is pumped at 2l/min (really slow) we have 33g/s going through the loop for a net heat capacity flow of 140W/K. So if you have a total system heat load, the total temp rise through the blocks is just 3.6K.
Practically a heat loop distributes all heat evenly through the loop. The heat transport capacity is so huge you can think of the loop as one big enormously efficient heat pipe coupling all your heat sources and radiators.
YES. PLEASE DO A BUILD WITH THIS
Jay another good explanation of the loop order stuff, I've heard a heap of them from you, this one I thought was the best, the description of the delta in coolant vs component I hadn't considered, previously the equalising of the loop temperature at a given load was enough, but what you're saying here also makes perfect sense.
You can do push pull on two of the spots and do pull on the third. I've done this in the past for more cooling, not wasting money or eyesight on LED's
This would be an awesome build to see you do. Always down to see a new build
You make the best videos when your winging it with new and exciting water-cooling parts!
I would like to see a build with that. Black case with blue or red fluid would look pretty good. If you go white I think gold would be the best choice. Kinda Roman themed.
"The science doesn't change, just your understanding of it" - words of wisdom by Jay, that can be applied to so many things...
I built my 1st custom loop with this. Put it on the front and use a back rad and top. I did hardline and all fittings, no bending tubes.
Yes, Please make a build, showing the distroplate in action :)
Do the black 5000D build! That's what I have for a case and have been considering almost that exact setup :) Also covering how you chose the fittings, adapters, and such would be great
I built and designed cooling systems on air compressors for close to 50 years. I always found it worked much better to send the hot air through a fan cooled radiator. The difference was quite remarkable! I could knock off 15 degrees with liquid coolers but not much more than that. With air coolers, I could take the temp down from 175 degrees, to cool enough to hold a hand on the pipe instantly. Of course, this drops moisture out, then that has to be dealt with. Too bad computers can't seem to do it efficiently.
A distribution block that doubles as reservoir is great. The only thing I'd like to start seeing these manufacturers doing is to make all the RGB cables modular(OPTIONAL!).
Make it so RGB cables can plug in if you want them while allowing you to remove the mess of wires if you do not.
Watching you and linux helped me to take the step towards pc gaming. Thank you :)
Flip it so pump goes into where cable management is. Would leave plenty of space for extra fans then for the front ;). Might have to get creative with tubing and a drill though for that to work and select a case with a deep cable management area.
Yes that would be a cool build. I would love to see you build with that!!
Hey Jay I just want to let you know I really appreciate what you do. I saw your beginner's guide to water and cooling and I think it's awesome, now could you possibly do in advance water cooling video please?
Jay, please do a hardline build with that pump res. I would like to see how you run the hardline tubes.
I actually use some reservoir/pump/flow meter combos that take up two 5-1/2" drive bays, which I really love having.
