Recommend Rad for CPU & GPU Loop

[Hay11Mac]

Hi Guys

I am trying to sort my watercooling system out, can anyone recommend a rad that will be good enough for CPU (I7 920) & GPU (GTX 295)

I brought the XSPC RS360 by mistake

I found a RX360 but when I do the blow test (Blow in one hole, while covering the other) air coming out the other end.

Also can you recommend Fans & will I need a Push - Pull config???

Thanks

Hayley

Push pull makes 2c difference, nothing else. I normaly just use push pull for looks tbh.

Rad wise, *please take note* still a thermochill for a single rad. get a PA120.3 and youll be fine. Otherwise its dual loop (seperate loops) and that gets expensive

Thanks

Doesnt matter really Hayles, Yate loons are good, Xilence work real well with them too. All depends if its looks or performance you are after.

Well i'm cooling CPU (I7 920, overclocked to 4ghz) & GPU (GTX 295, got the Koolance waterblock) so i'm guess performance is the goal

Thanks

They are the mental Loons, you can use the mediums without a worry. Thermochills dont require tornado fans.

bugger i just ordered them, would they be ok, or should i order the medium ones instead, maybe send the mental ones back???

thanks for the help

Youll need a fan controller, Thermochills work better at low fan speeds.

Yeah I have order the Zalman ZM-MFC1 Plus fan controller, so will be able to use the mental fans but on a low setting, right???

 

[tinytomlogan]

aye that will work

 

[killablade]

Atleast now you have fans that CAN run at a mental speed

I agree with tinytom. Thermochills are the best, but need lower rpms fans to work best
