Finally think I've picked my loop, note that the 8800gts block, I'm ASSUMING will attach to the 8800gt, i don t plan on buying this and then waiting to find out tho, the other way around in fact. I already have 3x 120mm 60CFM fans in my side door which I will swap for blue LED ones, and put the 60cfm ones in that rad.

I got a few problems though.

1. I think the CPU cooler is copper and the GPU block is aluminum, if someone can confirm this, is there any other CPU/GPU blocks I could use? I want to OC a quad so it has to be quite a good one for under £30 for CPU, or under £60 for the GPU.

2. Is everything there? As long as I select fittings for each individual thing, its all there right?

3. Is that rad enough to cool the whole thing? Ill probably add another GPU at a later date, hell I might even buy another when I get this. Is it still enough?

4. Is the pump strong enough to get the max cooling out of the rig?

5. Any possible improvements for the same or less money?

1: CPU and GPU block are both copper where they hit water (GPU block has alu parts just for the fets

2: I'd get some jubilee clips and coolant if I were you, but looks fine. Not sure on the fitting of the GPU though mate, not tried it

3: RAD should be fine imo. If you add another card (not worth it imo) you may want an extra/bigger RAD

4: Yes should be fine

6: Well with the CPU block you may get better performance from the Fuzion mebbe??

Cant get much bigger then triple rad unless I spend like £80 and thats only select shops. I guess I could always get another 120mm rad, put the heat through the CPU into the 120mm rad then through both the GPU's so it goes in a bit cooler.

Also cant warrant spending another £10 just to get 1degree better cooling.

Nice ot know aside from that it would work alrite though.

Ahh soz thought it was a double...triple would be fine
