Hello everyone, I am completly new to watercooling and would like some imput from u fellow OC members regarding this set up I have in mind. I just bought this http://www.frozencpu.com/ex-wat-19.html due to my opteron ideling around 40 c load 54c. With that in mind I said what the heck lemme just cool my video cards too... so Im thinking of getting this now too..http://www.frozencpu.com/ex-blc-185.html. Now my question is will I be ok in adding this to that water kit or will it just not work as good. All of this will be going into my current sig. Will water pressure drop? Will I have to upgrade to dual radiator? thanks.

If it was a single card it would handle it but because you got the SLI its going to be on the edge, the rad could handle it but you need a very high CFM fan and that would mean alot of noise.
Bottom line, yes it could handle it but its not recommended because of the noise levels.
You can sell that rad and get yourself a BIPII for like 35$ from DD.

Ok so I got my dual radiator and sli maze 4 sli gpu blocks. I have one question whether this setup would be ok. Im planning on going
pump>single radiator>cpu>dual radiator>sli maze 4 blocks>resovoir>pump.
The single radiator would be inside the case and the dual will be outside on the back. Would this be ok? All using 1/2 inch tubing. thanks

Order doesn't matter, just use the setup that uses least tubing and make sure the res is before the pump.bf2 said:

Hehe... I will post pictures as soon as I get my new motherboard on Friday. I got the Asus a8n32 deluxe, due to fact that my current mb, I think died or wont post for some odd reason. I had recently formatted my drives I installed the creative drivers, rebooted and nothing.. no post, no picture nothing. I even swaped out cpus and video cards and nothing no post... oh well wanted to get this new mb anyways.
