Why are you not using 2 x 280mm? (it's 15-ish more percent radiator area if it fits)

That third 240mm rad is right on the munney!

I'm interested in some performance numbers. If we say that those rads dissipate around 160 watts with 1000 rpm fans per rad (~80W per 120mm), considering that you only have single fans sandwiched between double rads in the front how much would you say you've lost from the potential 320 watts of dissipation capacity? (I'm guessing it's not a small number)

It definitely does help with temps though... The GPU didn't break 43c at 1150mhz

It's easy for me to say, but I'm pretty sure you're not gonna like it. It would be really nice to know the temps when loaded in prime+furmark with and without the "most" front rad. Nothing scientific- over ambient delta averaged over say... 30 mins in 5 min intervals (for each configuration, after reaching "equilibrium" /although there's no such thing without a hotbox and a stable heat input/) would be more than sufficient.

I don't mean to sound demanding, there are just so many builds with no performance data and I find it incomplete. Also with the rather unconventional setup you've got here it could serve as a kind of a precedent to which potential builders could refer. (Of course I am aware of "the" thread on xsystems, but someone who's fresh to WC maybe isn't. Besides, independent tests never hurt)

Yeah.. that's what you get when you say "feel free".
