Enthoo Luxe fan layout

Hey all,

Planning a new build using water cooling for the first time.

I'm going with the evga 980 ti which has its own 120mm radiator. Then for the CPU, I'm ... not sure which to go with. Got a 5930k and unsure If I should do a single 120, 140, or a dual 240 or 280.

Looks are everything and I want this case to shine. I was thinking use the top for everything? 1x 120 for the GPU, and the 240 (or 280, does it matter?) for the CPU.

Then, replace the front 200m with dual 140mm blue led's and replace the back 140mm with another 140mm blue led.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Also, use Phanteks 140 fans or Corsair AF140? I was thinking Phanteks because hopefully the blue led better matches.

I replaced all my Enthoo Pro fans with 140's. Corsair AF.

Blackbird, any particular reason? Are your Corsair's LED's? Do they match?

White LED's AF very quiet , but move a decent amount of air.

I got rid of all the Phanteks fans.

Oh, the stock fans .. but did you try these: http://amzn.com/B00E9NZW7A?

Think blue LED lighting with white led fans would look cool or stick to one color?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Corsair LED's look better.

Ok thanks, any insight about the water coolers? What size and location for CPU/GPU?

 

[adambean]

Heading to Microcenter shortly ... would appreciate any feedback on the CPU cooler. Just not sure If I should get the single or dual and where to put it.

Thanks

Cryorig H7 is a good one.
