Hey everyone i have done one watercooling setup in the past but i only cooled the cpu.

I dont want to run 2 rads and 2 loops too much of a head ache for me lol. As the heading said would i be ok with the 1 360 rad. I will only be overclocking the cpu.

I don't think so. 4 GPU's and a CPU is a lot to ask of a 360 rad. It would cool it at stock CPU speed, but not enough to put on a decent OC.

The usual information here on OCN is that you want 1 120mm per cpu/gpu. So I would say no.
Upgrade!!!

Question should be... 2x 360 rad for 4way sli and cpu? biggrin.gif
Btw, you don't need to run 2 loops in order to run multiple radiators

You can run a single loop with dual rads, and it would be highly advised to do so. If you are going 4 way sli, I'm guessing your budget could allow for a case to house it. I think you could get by with something like the NZXT Switch 810 with a 360 in the top and a 240 in the bottom, or mod an 800D to do the same, or maybe you want to look into a CaseLabs solution.

I currently have the haf x. I was thinking last week maybe 1 140mm rad for the cpu (just for a 4.2 oc max) and leave the 360 rad for the gpu.

It'll work, but it wont be the best temps. I don't think I would worry about a dual loop however. I would still highly suggest getting a bigger case and more rad, or mounting another rad externally.
