I'm looking to add liqued cooling to my two 6970 GPUs. I now have a Antec 960 CPU cooler on a AMD 1100T on a ASUS CrossHair IV MotherBoard.O.C to 3.990,runs nice at about 26c at idl and about 37-45 when gaming.The GPUs on the other hand runing all out at 950 MHz & 1450MHz with power to 15% Fan speed 70% (a little noisie) Temp tops out at about 82-85-87c ,to hot for my likeing.Having enough room inside my case ( CoolerMaster 932 HAF) and outside I just wish to cool these Jems.I was thinking of building a custom loop setup somehow.I would just like the best.Money is no object.But I could use some advise,Thankyou Sorry It's a Antec 920 CPU Cooler

Give the Sticky a read-through and let us know. I might need to update a couple of things and add more info (which I think I have a few things to add) but for the most part, it's all concept, design and hardware considerations. If you have any questions, let us know. I wrote it, so if you need clarification, we need to know so I can clear up any confusion and specify items that should be better discussed.

There is a lot of data out there, it's a matter of understanding what all you need to consider when building a loop. Most people think you just buy the first thing you buy that says 'watercooling' or 'liquid' on it and that's good.

It isn't...for either step.

No problem...good luck.

Don't be afraid to ask questions, but also don't be afraid to learn for yourself...your planning, purchase and building of your loop will be a much more enjoyable process once you understand some fundamental concepts.
