@ fat italian. thanks so much for this!
Yes, I was looking at the 560s but they are expensive. Maybe I could find the extra cash.
One rad on top and one on bottom but in one loop? That would mean a lot more visible tubing right? I was kind of hoping to keep it as clean as possible.
Cooling this way would be better than sticking both down the bottom because each rad is cooling a separate part of the lop right? Sorry for noob question. I got to learn right? Or is it simply because they would stiffle each other?
I'll have to check out the noise blockers but again, it's a question of money. 12 GTs in England will set me back a fair bit!
I will get a top for the pump, though not sure how it works or why it actually works. But I've read the same point you make on other forums here, so I'll have to read up on that.
QDC on res is a great idea - will sort all my probs (had no idea how to drain or where).
If I go with one rad up top and one below, I just need to work out how to route tubing as neatly as possible.
Also, can I ask you to clear something up for me? I read different ideas about this - some say that there is no temp differences in water loop, and others say stick one component before another because the water will be hotter etc. Does it actually matter what order I put the loop in?
On this point too, does it make more sense to link CPU waterblock to pump as opposed to gpus to pump and then to CPU (as in my pic) because water pressure will be higher and thus CPU will be better cooled?
Thanks for all this input - it's really useful stuff. Much respect.
