Hi guys
I am considering selling my new Phantom 570 plus my Gigabyte 460 for £400+ and buying 2 480's for sli - some great prices for 480's at the moment, ive seen more expensive 560's
. Which would only seems to make sense if i could put them under water - i hate excessive noise.
Also going to be getting 2600k/P67/1000wPSU upgrade too - and modding my H50 for CPU cooling
The thing that makes it difficult is that i'm using a P180 Mini which is a small case, only capable of holding a 240 rad after modding.
Would a 240 rad with 4 fans in push/pull be enough to cool 2 480's??? Bot looking for exceptional temps. Idle @ around 35c and loading @ around 60/65c, for example, would be considered acceptable, low noise is the big priority.
Am considering using EK-480 Blocks + Resvoir/Pump combo - trying to keep it as simple as possible.
Currently just brain-storming so there is no rush, but would like to think i could put together a nice enough dual-gpu water-cooled rig without having to sell my case and go regular atx.
TIA
