yes watercooling makes a pretty big difference if built correctly. around 40c load is possible if you have good ambient temps. I would say one double 120 rad would probably get you some pretty good results i wouldnt suggest getting two seperate radiators.

Helps ALOT. It can be made to run quieter, but mine sounds like a jet.

No. Get a quality Rad and call it good. 2 crappy rads aren't better then a nice rad.

No...I think you are crazy for not wanting it to be lower

Do you mean all one loop

pump>rad>cpu>gpu>gpu/chipset>res type of thing?


To the first post.
My load with temps around 70 degrees F is 40-41 Full load, I run at about 34-35 Idle during that time. (cooling is what is coming - Im currently using a TT Bigwater 745)

I vote no. You're better off spending your money on slapping some fast, loud fans on a big rad. You loose pressure and flow the more components in the loop and the longer the loop is.

it may help performance minimally but u'd still be better off with one triple rad. By having all those radiators your going to severely decrease ur flow rate. believe me it will cool way better than u are expecting.
