I have a small form factor case, so there is very limited space, but I also have (relatively) low power components and will not be overclocking. I'm using an i5-3350P (69W) and a GTX 750 (55W).
What can I get away with? Would a 40mm triple be okay? That would be the easiest for me to work with. I could probably make an 80mm double fit with some modding.
The reason I'm considering water cooling at all is because I need my video card to be single slot to fit in the case, but the cooler currently makes it a dual slot. My CPU fan happened to burn up before I even had a chance to install an OS on this new computer too (Thanks, Staples!), so that got me thinking about a possible water cooling solution.
