I am starting a new build and will be using a EVGA X58 Classified with hopefully a i7 950 @ 4G +, Liquid cooled with a chipset waterblock, & 2 - liquid cooled graphics cards and an air cooled Physics card. I will be using a Swiftech 220 ultra system, will this system do the job?
In the SLI systems I have seen the two graphics cards are tied together, the coolant which is heated from the 1st card goes directly to the 2nd, so the 2nd card is cooled with heated coolant from the 1st, Is there any reason the tubing can't be split after the CPU to go to both graphics cards so they are not tied together?
Additionally I would like to use two temperature/ flow meters. One before the radiator & one after the radiator. Is there a better location for these meters?
Finally the CPU pins are to be lubricated, what should be used for this?
Thank You for your time & expertise
