Wi a overclocked fx 8350 and a gtx 780 be able to run off one 240mm rad. My fx 8350 is oc to 4.6 with cm glacer 240l and never reaches past 45 degrees in battlefield 4. If I add my gpu to the loop would the tips be ok. I suspect it will be higher than a normal water cooled unit but could it stay in the safe limits without gpu throttling. I have 850w psu and phanteks enthoo pro case with 10 fans so cooling is great

how hot is your gpu getting currently?

With the cpu running so hot currently (my h100i - 8350 doesn't get over 47c at 100% load)
I don't think adding a GPU would be wise, that would bring your temps up uncomfortably high.

If anything, all you'd have to add is a second radiator -- preferably a 120mm, that will accommodate the extra cooling capacity to deal with that new card in the loop.

Well my gpu never reaches past 60 without changing the fan curve. so it's more for looks than anything. Maybe I'll keep the gpu stock and just put clear hoses with mayhem blue berry mix to give the cpu loop a nice look
