360mm RAD

[andrew1795]

Is a 2x180mm Radiator good enough to cool Overclocked 2600k and a GPU I'm thinking 6950/70 or 570

A 360 rad is usually defined as a 3x120 rad, but I can see where you get '360' from. When in doubt, simply stated as <number of spaces> x <fan size format>.

Yes, I believe you'd be fine with a rad like that, can you link to it for us?

You'll be fine with that one...

2x180= 400mm x 180 mm x 35 mm= 2520000 mm^3
3x120= 396mm x 120mm x 30 mm= 1425600 mm^3

Significantly larger total volume than an almost equivalent Magicool 360 rad.

Sounds good. I'll link a build log for my Raven 3 when I start

We need to get a few more Raven watercooled builds and we could start our own sticky

 

[rubix_1011]

Yeah, I know its a popular case, but not many people watercool with it (yet).

Agreed, I'm going to throw in my old Rasa 120 today just to scope things out, I can post pictures if you like. Would the pump included be ok for a cpu and gpu loop with that rad I posted? It's rated at 450lph
