Hey all,
I've been reading about liquid cooling for some time and stumbled upon this forum.
Recently, another user made a post about his hardware and some questions and i semi-started to hijack his thread. Another user mentioned it might be best to start my own so here we are!
So here's my hardware info:
Fractal R4 enthusiast case
Intel i7-4770K
MSI Z87-G45 Gaming mobo
2x MSI lightning GTX770 SLI setup
G-Skill 16gb pc17000 ram
850W power supply
I've started to compile some products to build my first setup. Here's my cart items so far (I'm missing the radiator and video card blocks atm):
*EDIT* I'm no longer getting the coolant as I've come across many threads stating distilled water and a biocide is better (and cheaper)
*EDIT* Here's a link to the GPU blocks and top mounted radiator i'm considering for this as well:

Another user mentioned it might be best to have 2 radiators for SLI. I was going to use a 240mm radiator - would you think it best for me to throw another 120 or 140mm in there?
Here's the layout I was going to use and what i was thinking of doing after reading this:
(quick 2 second MSpaint diagram)
Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
