Radiator Capabilities
 
I'm putting together a new gaming/work rig with a w/c Classy & 980X and two w/c GTX 580's.

I have one 3x140mm Feser Monsta rads mounted at the top of the Corsair 800D and I have a Thermochill (the new kind) 1x120mm sitting on the bottom of the case between the power suppliy and the extra HDD drive bays. Dual D5's in that new Koolance 2 bay rasv so I could run 2 loops or 1 loop with 2 pumps.

Problem is, I'm thinking the 1x120 won't do much more than the chipset w/o the CPU while I'm also worried that the 3x140 Monsta may not be up to both the CPU and the GPUSs. Am I wrong about either of these?

I also have a Feser Duo 2x120, but I would either have to mount it on the back or cut out the lower HDD cage and slip it in the bottom.

Would appreciate some feedback since it's been awhile since I've undertaken a serious water build

thanks Bros

I still have the two feser quads, but I'm trying to keep this one sophisiticated looking :P

dude i'll be a really nice project system! 980 + 2 way 580!
yeah i'd say one 3x120mm per hardware i'll be REALLY cool! pump would be nice if it's like a fish tank pump of some kind...

or hell if you wanna have some REAL fun get a car rad and be done with it :P

Very Nice Rickss. I'm building a watercooled system myself as well - and i'm fairly new at building them. Know a good reliable place to get a Mo-Ra? would like to check it out.
Have some waterblocks in mind, but what would you guys pair with something like this?

Been looking at the Swiftech H2O-220 (dual 120s) & 320 (triple 120s)... and EK's equivalent for the i7 & dual EVGA GTX 570 SC based system that I'm putting together.

Thnx for the post MD :thumbsup:

Probably your best bet with all the mounting options... http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...ducts_id=26243

Another option with possibly more mounting options tho I have not tried this one... http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...ducts_id=27108
