The Quadro has an over current protection. if the fans use too much power, the Quadro will turn off and the fans stop spinning. Nothing burns and no damage is done to your hardware.Am I going to burn out my Quadro or possibly damage the fans?
Thank you, Hufeisen! After reading your reply and doing some critical thinking I've decided to buy a second Aquaero 6 XT for four extra PWM channels and a higher safe output level. I was able to get one on sale and felt it would be the safest solution to keep everything running. I'm going to use 4 fan PWM splitter cables to pair 4 of these fans to each channel of the two Aquaero 6 XTs, using 26.4W max per channel. I'm adding passive heatsinks on the Aquaeros to raise the max safe output, giving myself more headroom just in case.
The over current protection started making me think of all sorts of other possibilities that would happen in the event the protection is triggered and the Quadro shuts down. If the fans shut down my cooling loops become useless and the CPU/GPUs are threatened. I work 10-14 hours a day and the computer will stay on 24/7, so if the fans stop spinning I could come back to all sorts of heat-related problems and it would kill me to lose an entire system that I've worked on and researched for so long only because I wanted to save $90 on my fan controllers.
If anyone else has any input I'd appreciate it, as well. Thank you again!
one Aquaero 6 XT is more than enough to control upto 40 fans then why another one
Your PC could easily be watercooled with one 360 rad for the CPU with 3 fans (NF-A12 for example) and 2 x 420 Rads for the 3 Gpus with 8 fans, all of that connected into a single loop or if you really want a separate loop, but this would already be overkill. One single Aquaero6XT would easily suffice for this setup to be honest.Zitat
I am building a system with two watercooling loops (one for CPU, one for triple GPU), four 560mm radiators and 32x NF-A14 IPPC-3000 PWM fans (8 fans per radiator in a push pull setup). Two radiators (16 total fans) will cool the CPU loop, and the other two radiators (remaining 16 fans) will cool the GPU loop. All of this will be powered by an EVGA 1600 watt T2 powersupply.
I thought about this for a while but I went with the XT for symmetry on the case, mainly.Zitat
You can buy an Aquaero 6 LT without a display to save some money. Then set the Aquaero with the Fans into Slave Mode. This allows you to control the Fans with your main Aquaero.
I knew this was overkill from the get go. This started a month ago when my AIO Threadripper cooler began failing and instead of replacing the cooler I replaced my Obsidian 900D with a CaseLabs THW10 and began a journey to fill the whole case out with watercooling equipment. This is much more of a want for me than an actual need. I have always been greatly impressed with the thermal performance of proper watercooling (AIOs are neat but I always wanted to try actual loops and when the AIO failed it gave me the perfect excuse). That, coupled with my enjoyment of building and working on things was enough to justify the grossly exorbitant quad 560 radiator, 32 radiator fan + 4 case fan setup. My worry was getting all of the fans to work properly as they are so power hungry.Zitat

Very impressive! Did you go with a reference 1080 Ti or a different brand? Is there any difference at all in terms of overclocking performance when going with a third party brand (EVGA, MSI etc) over reference if you use it in a loop? I understand all of the unique cooling setups each brand develops but if you strip it down to the PCB and add a waterblock does it really matter who "made" the card? Also, what fans did you go with?Zitat
I have a setup with 2 Rads (360 + 420) for both CPU (7700K all cores @ 5GHz) and GPU(1080ti @ 2076MHz) in a single loop and my water temp at full load is at 3°C higher than the room temperature with fans at 2000rpm in normal use I set the curve so the water temp stays at a delta T°C of 7°C under load with that setting the temperature of the GPU is 40-41°C and water temp is 31°C (room temp is 24°C thanks to the PC heating it) without load the GPU is at 28-29°C and water temp is 28°C and the noisiest component is the 4 disks raid array which i only hear when disks are working.
I bought the second Aquaero 6 XT because each fan draws up to 6.6W of power and the channels on the Aquaero can only handle 30W stock, 36W with heatsink, or (from what I've read) 40W with liquid cooling. It's also powered by a MOLEX connector which caps out at 11A/132W on 12V. 32 fans at 6.6W each would run too much current and cause issues.Zitat
