Hi, i have an nzxt H440, a i7 4790k on a gigabyte z97x sli and 2 msi 970's. (my planned colour scheme is black and red)

I have a few questions on cooling my new build.

Is 2 120.3 radiators enough each running 3 Corsair Air Series SP120 in push configuration?

Is it possible to cool the 2 970's and the cpu in one loop rather then 2? if so what pump would you advise i use? Ideally, the res would be mounted on top of the pump.

thanks

D5s are generally quieter and more powerful, but a DDC would probably still be powerful enough for your loop - just with slightly higher temps than a D5.

That radiator configuration is more than enough for your hardware. In that case, I would definately recommend a single loop solution - it's not really big enough for two custom loops, and the performance difference between single and dual loops is minimal - it's really just for aesthetics.
The easiest solution for the res-pump combo would probably come fromEKWB - they sell ones with both D5, and DCP pumps (http://www.ekwb.com/shop/reservoirs-and-acc/res-pump-combo.html). If you are looking for something that looks a little nicer, you could get a bitspower D5 mod kit and top, along with one of their reservoirs.
