First Watercool Build (CL STH10)

[deuce]

Hey Guys,

I Need your advice for my first watercooled Build.

Hardware: i7 4770k ( i buy a preselectet 4.5-4.8 Ghz)
Titan SLI (also try to oc for 24/7 gaming)

First i thinked to make 2 Loops because of the optic and that monumental amount of Space....but..i think the tubing is very weird.

Target is cool and quiet as Possible

Second Plan looks like this:

Would you put more radspace in one of The configs? Which to choose? other ideas?

I thinked to go with Phobya E loops 120mm fans (with shorud for pull)
and Corsair Af140 quiet edition for the 140mm

Sorry for my bad english

why titan sli? 780 sli is almost half the price and performs better in certain benchmarks.

also please wrap the links in

I have still a Titan. And often gaming Skyrim/GTa IV with mods/ENB

I wouldn't really recommend dual loops unless you change GPUs very often. The added cost (additional
pump, fittings, reservoir) and added complexity in the plumbing are rarely worth it IMO (that's just
a personal thing though).

If you want it to be as quiet as possible: The more radiators the better, though the law of diminishing
returns does strongly apply here. At some point the added benefit of more rad surface will become
rather small compared to the added cost. So I'd say it depends a lot on how much money you're
willing to spend.

If you're willing/able to place the PSU in the main compartment (Caselabs make an adapater
for that, or you can create a DIY solution like I have in HELIOS) you could theoretically put four
560s into an STH10. Overkill, to be sure, but possible.

I wouldn't really recommend push/pull for 60 mm low FPI radiators, the performance gains are
rather small compared to the added costs. The Alphacool Monstas do profit from p/p though.

Bottom line: Both your setups (or a mixture thereof) should work fine. Whether or not you wish
to add more rad surface mostly depends on your budget IMO. It's probably not exactly what I'd
do (I'd either go for something similar to HELIOS in an SMH10 or for four 560s in an STH10,
but that's just me), but it should get the job done.
