My first PC was an ultra budget Optiplex- style build with a 4th gen CPU and a GTX 980, so I’m not counting it as a full PC build.

Anyway, I have a 3090 with a waterblock, an AM5 block for my 7800x3d, and my case and motherboard.

Right now I’m only missing coolant, tubing, and fans for my 360 and 240mm radiators.

I’ve installed my DDR5 6400 RAM into my motherboard with my CPU and installed a new bios so my B650 will run.

What’s the next step? Do I install the motherboard in my 011 Vision and start on the loop, or are there other steps to do next?

I’d appreciate any help from experienced water coolers, because there’s a lot in the line and I want the build to go smoothly.

Any advice / criticism is really appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hi, I’m 15 and I’m going to be building my first proper PC build. Is there anything I should know about custom loop watercooling it?
