Hello all, long time lurker, first time poster.
First venture into Water Cooling, need direction and opinion on parts I'm looking at.
Yes, I've read the sticky, extensively.
Parts:
RIVBE
i7-4820k
GTX 770 x2
Goal here is to water cool the cpu (of course), chipset, MOSFETs and the 2 GPUs, overclock and do it quietly. I probably will not overclock higher than the pre-programmed OC options in the BIOS, so about 4.5ghz on the CPU, no real preference on the GPUs, just whatever I can get.
I've already settled on this to cool the board: link
(I'm open to input concerning the full board block)
Which leaves the rest; I have already calculated my overall loop TDP to be 700w total(plus pump), overclocking to 4.5 (I believe) assuming I've calculated correctly, yet that TDP seems a bit high(?).
Parts I'm considering:
Pump:
Swiftech MCP355
RAD:
XSPC EX360 Triple 120mm Low Profile Split Fin Radiator
or
Swiftech MCR320 "Quiet Power" Triple 120mm Radiator
In short are these parts acceptable or am I way off base here. Skineelabs seemed to like the MCR320, but that was posted in 2011. Am I going to need two?
Looking for any input you fine Ladies and Gentlemen can offer...
