Water Cooling Question

synergygreen459 · Oct 15, 2014

I am water cooling an overclocked i5-3570k and a gtx 780 in the phanteks enthoo luxe i want to run this in one loop with one rad. i have room for either a triple 140 or 120 in the top of the case but i can only do push pull if i go with a thin radiator like this

is it more effective to do that or would i be better off with a thicker rad and just either a push or a pull config.

Don't See any fpi listed the higher the fpi the more static pressure you need which usually means push and pull for optimal airflow but also with more noise. All depends on what you prefer.on I would do a thin 140 in push and pull should be a hair quieter than a 120 with more Rad space as well

The thinner rad with push\pull will be more effective across any range of fan speeds.

Rad thickness isnt to important, except for noise and the likes. Low fin density= low static pressure, High density= probably want more sp.
