Hey guys. How are you all doing? I hope all is well.
So I decided to order 2 x XFX AMD Radeon HD 7970GHz cards, which I got for 400 each, saved over 80 per card, to replace my already sold GTX 670 DCUII SLI. I had originally decided to cancel the order and wait for the Titan but I thought again and here I am getting 2 cards for $800 and get 2x coupons for games (each card gets its own Crysis 3 and Bioshock coupon). What I want to know is whether or not a single, 280 mm radiator (thick) with push/pull is more than enough to cool the 2 cards. As you can see on my specs, I have a Corsair H80i for my CPU and I get less than 45 degrees Celsius under 100% load, meaning I don't plan on using the custom loop on it until I get Corsair 900D in the summer and have all the stuff water-cooled. I am going to be using the Fractal Design Define R4 with window and place the radiator at the front. Let me know if this works. I should have the cards and case by Wednesday. I plan to do the watercooling by mid march. Thanks in advance.
