I built a new system over the weekend. My kid asked me about how water cooling is done (yeah, like I'd know).
Maybe I'll point him at your article.
On the motherboard I selected I notice that there are four places where fans -- or pumps!? -- can be connected.

Yeh, more than likely, I noticed that on my board, it has a stack of them as well.
AIO Pump, CPU Fan, CPU Option, Water Pump, Chassis Fan 1, Chassis Fan 2, M.2 Fan, Ext. Fan
Things have moved on a bit since CPU Fan, Chassis Fan and that was it!

My chassis fan isn't connected to the motherboard; I think it's always on. But it's quiet.

Was very fascinating to read them... You got a pretty monster there to feed...
Can I ask how much you payed for the parts? In my experience building a computer instead of buying pre-made is 2.2 times cost more when the features within 85% barrier (means the pre-made PC has the power between 85% to 100% of the home-made)...
I built my last computer some 4 years ago, but nowadays I'm thinking that it is a waste of money to build a new one every 5-6 years instead of buying one ever 3-4... But utter fun!

In total it is probably a $6k build, I had the GPUs and PSU from previous update, so all the new stuff this time, MB/CPU/RAM/SSD + all watercooling parts + case was around €3.5k

At the risk of sounding thick why do you need water cooling ?

primarily noise.
Secondary, you can push overclocking further with watercooling over standard air cooling.

Hi Dave, nice to hear from you ! Looks like real life kept you away from minor Internet thingies, which all in all is a good thing.

Welcome back Dave! That's a very nice rig (drooling), and a very nice article about it.

And (no spoilers here!) realised that this song: Every Breath You Take[^] is the "Unofficial Stalkers Anthem", and that it was originally written and performed by the Police ...

I always thought that song could be misconstrued. Any guess what the 'Official Stalkers Anthem' might be?...probably 'Gonna Get Close to You' by Queensryche.
Also, the Police also did a song about teacher/pupil improper relationships.

Forever etched in my brain is a memory of it being played on ABC TV years ago, as the soundtrack to hidden cam video of police exchanging wads of cash.

Sting once said that he found it funny when this song was played at things like weddings as it is a song about stalking.
