360 enough?

Hi there everyone.

I am building a PC soon and defiantly plan on water/liquid cooling it.

I have picked out this case: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=15715

This radiator: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=15840

These fans (x3): http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=8022

This CPU: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=16531

This GPU (just one): http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=16060

This water block (CPU): http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=18563

This water block (GPU): http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=18398

This pump: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=11767

This reservoir: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=18303

Is this a good water cooling setup and will it keep my temps under 10 degres Celsius?

Thanks!

Very good choices all around.

I don't know much about that LanBoy case- they look spectacular, but haven't seen anyone build a water loop in one. But, don't let that discourage you.

Under 10 degrees Celsius? No, you can't go below ambient temperatures with straight watercooling; you would need a chiller or a different form of cooling altogether to get sub-ambient. Are you speaking about 10C delta-T? Possibly, but it I doubt it since you are running both CPU and GPU on the same 360 rad. You are likely looking at a 15-18C delta-T (also depending if you overclock the CPU or GPU). Either way, 20C delta-T is still respectable if you aren't shooting for the greatest delta and just want cooling.

Thanks! I have configured a new water cooling system with 2x280 radiators in this case http://www.aerocool.com.tw/index.php/products/chassis/28-pgsb/138-xpredator-white
