I recently had a leak in one of my rads, and since I need to replace it, I decided to just upgrade most of my parts. Since my other 240 rad is working fine, I'm wondering if I should add it to the new EK XE 480 that I'll be setting up.
I'm using a dual D5 (with bitspower top) in series, but I decided to keep things simple and get a single EK X-res 140 with integrated pump.
It will be cooling my 6800K (overclocked to 4.2-4.4 I'm assuming), and my GTX 780TI overclocked as well.
My question is:
- Would that single pump-res combo be good enough? Or since I already have dual D5s, should I integrate those as well to the loop?
- Would adding the 240 rad along with the 480 make any tangible difference? I do like silence, so the fans would be running low most of the time. Although I would like to keep things simple and go 1 rad, if adding the additional 240 rad would help with the cooling at lower fan RPM speeds, I would be down.
Thanks!
