So I am stuck with these GTX 480's for a while and even if the heat allows me to enjoy a personal BBQ in my office 365 days a year it's not a good time.
So I have been going around and around for a WC solution and was thinking just do it, enjoy looking at it at night, enjoy the office with out enjoying pot lucks being served off my Corsair Graphite Series 600T.

Looking at solutions I've noticed that most setups only have a CPU cooler and one video card setup. I have not found a solution to run a water cooling system that allows 2 or even 3 video cards along with a CPU due to space in the case like my 600T.

Is there a kit solution that I can just add an extra cooling setup for this SLI or maybe a 3 card WC solution and that will fit? I was looking at some kits and looked maybe adding things like this would be the best way to start.
Cheers.
 
You will want to read this first, will explain all you need to know about water-cooling to get am idea of what your doing.

You can buy a water-cooling kit like an XSPC Raystorm D5 and just add more radiators and blocks to accommodate the GPU's.

With the 600T, you are going to be limited in radiator space if you want to keep it internal. Without modification, it can hold a slim 240mm and 120mm radiator, which will be enough for the CPU and single card I suspect. To add more radiator space, you would have to externally mount a rad (which is possible, the Raystorm kits come with the brackets for it) or remove the HDD bays to mount a rad at the front.

But anyway, read the sticky and come back with any questions you still have.

Just a tip: When your trying to figure out how water-cooling loops configurations in particular cases, literally do a Google Image of the case name and water-cooling. There are plenty of results for the 600T.
