Please help to build crazy water cooling system

[matvey]

i need to cool Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 Yorkfield 2.66GHz 12MB overclock to 3.40-3.60 Ghz and 3 way SLI GTX 260 SSC.

Ok, you feel that you need water cooling to overclock a Q9450 to 3.6 GHz? That can be easily covered by aircooling, hell a high end one could be overkill.

Do you plan to water cool those GPUs?

 

[matvey]

i want to install water cooling system mostly for the GPUs because they get HOT.

For the three GPU,s you would most likely need a triple radiator and FC/fullcover
waterblocks as dpending on how close they are together a separate waterblock with
ram/mosfet heatsinks may not fit.

If you include the CPU probably a triple radiator and a dual radiator would be
best. Maybe a dual loop set up as well.

the problam is that i can not find a FC/fullcover water block for GTX 260 so i'll go with gpu water block and ram/mosfet heatsinks. you saying that triple radiator will be good for 3 GPU and CPU?

Here are some for the 260,s.

A triple for all of that will work but your temps wont be all that great
probably, the video cards would be much cooler than stock cooling though.

is this a good company?

 

[sirheck]

Yeah it should be, their CPU coolers are REAL popular and good.

 

[matvey]

thanks a lot man!

 

[matvey]

one more question does this block work with 260 55nm?

 

[sirheck]

Hmm, not sure they are compatible with reference PCB,s only.
Not sure if the 55nm is the same or not.

I,ll check and get back with ya.

 

[matvey]

thank you

 

[sirheck]
