Im wondering if i should add a second rad to my loop or if i should replace the rad i have I have a thermaltake kandolf case with a built in triple rad with stock 120mm fans and my liquid loop is as follows. Ek supreme cpu block, Koolance full motherboard block, 2 koolance 5850 gpu blocks, Swiftech p655 1/2 inch pump, ek basic 400 res, all with high flow silver barbs.
my tt rad is 3/8 and the rest of my loop is 1/2 inch is my rad restricting water flow to the point it should be replaced? i read a form here that states the benefits from running 1/2 inch tube is minimal compared to 3/8.
so do i add a a second rad to the rear of my case with a push/ pull high cfm fan set up or do i get a new triple rad and 3 new high cfm fans ? (cant push/ pull triple rad because of mounting location and i cant add a rad to the rear ( exterior) of my case due to the large res mounted to the out side.
my temps are great at idle 30-35 while gaming never breaking 50c although prime95 will run my cpu up to 58 - 60 after a half hour or so.
system specs:
crosshair extreme, 1090t, xfx 5850 BE xfire
cpu 4232
nb 3118
ht 2895
xfire gpu 765/1125
Any ideas would be great thanks
