'almost good' great name
Name it "Horrifically Inappropriate For Any Number of Reasons"
Tldr: with the one fan upgrade, bro is now cooking the halo lobby
can't wait to see the next iteration!
I still think adding copper fins onto the reservoir would have increased cooling a lot.
You can name it Sadie. A nod to Sadi Carnot, the French physicist who is the father of thermodynamics.
To explain the radiator stack issue, heat transfer is dependant on a difference in temperature between the air and the thing that your trying to cool, the way you have it the coolest air hits the hottest radiator which is initially quite good but eventually you have the hottest air hitting the coolest radiator dramatically cutting down its cooling. Having them piped the other way increases the effectiveness of the radiators later in the stack
I thought about a few names for the machine.. -Fanxiety -The Pump and Dump -No Delta-T for Old Men
i think the main issue is that for passive cooling, you want big fins not thin fins so the air can pass through easier
beautiful build, hope u don't leave the 200 fan idea
in Fancontrol you can create a Mix sensor and set the sensor to Max. Select the GPU and the CPU as the temps that the Mix sensor will monitor and which ever is hottest will show up as the temp for that Custom Sensor. Then you can use that for the fan curve to help the fan ramp when either devices (cpu or gpu) goes over a set temp. Great build BTW. Love that you went over kill on the Rads so you can use little to no fans. Something I have always tried to do just because noise.
I love your style, steel and bronze are the best!
Name it after a refurbished old industrial building that has kept it's old esthetic that you like. That is what it make me think of.
See, I told you you had a fan. You're alright.
Could you just reverse the water flow direction so it goes through the top first? It seems like with one plumbing tweak that might be possible.
I CAN'T WAIT for the Passive cooling PC v3. 🤤

Your builds are so insane.
I think "quietest possible" is a good direction to go since you're still interested in the passive cooling. what I hoped for from this build was the eerie silence of a machine that you couldn't tell was on, and you've convinced me that one big radiator and one big slow fan would probably create something close
2:15 kinda like counter-flow heat exchangers, air goes up so flow would go down in that case
