Good Evening Zotty,
I'm new to the Corsair Forums and have been reading your thread over the past few months for inspiration on my own Corsair Obsidian 1000D Build. (really great build by the way) :D:
I'm planning out a Dual Build System and have been struggling to plan out how to setup my system to have two builds in one custom loop (all watercooling parts are EK and Loop fans (Corsair) will utilise Commander Pro's and Light Node Pro's currently planning to use 25 fans in push/pull configuration).
I'm trying to plan the loop to allow both system in the case to power on the loop (not sure if it's possible). I haven't been able to figure out how to go about it. if possible could you help me out by making a diagram for this configuration.
I will be using a drain location directly after the pump (res is separated by fitting and tubing then connects to pump) after that will be rotary - x splitter - (attached to front of x Splitter, Back of x Splitter will be closed off with a Plug) rotary and (finally) Ball Baring drain fitting.
The reservoir will be placed in the area where mounting area is to the front of case (if that makes sense) pump underneath it.
my Builds will mainly be used for Gaming (4K HDR 60fps minimum), 3D Rendering, 3D Modelling, teaching myself how to code in Unreal 4 and Unity Engine, Texturing and playing around with game engines.
