What would be the best sized radiator(s) for use with the NZXT phantom crafted Series chassis? The planned setup is a cooling loop that accommodates a core i7 cpu(4Ghz and may overclock in the future), two titan blacks in sli, and the motherboard which has built in 3/8" barb fittings. The preferred radiator positioning is on the top of the case since the phantom has the vent opening in the top. Advice on whether or not to put in a second radiator is also welcome. The chassis is specifically this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146079&cm_re=nzxt_crafted-_-11-146-079-_-Product The loop plan isn't at all mature in development but will definitely only have one pump and reservoir for the sake of simplicity. One decision is to put all the components in a series and have the reservoir feed the pump from directly above but the rest of the loop planning depends on whether or not I can get a dual radiator setup with one on the top and one on the bottom. Other sources tell me that component order doesn't matter as fluid moving into the radiator doesn't make a drastic temperature change before it exits. The greatest concern is whether or not the chassis can accommodate enough radiator volume in total to cool all of these components and if so what sized radiators will fit?
