Was wondering peoples opinions on what would be best for a build im working on.
Basically its rampage 3 - i7 2.8 - 6gig dominator - 3x 480 gtx - 1200w psu - all in a 700d case.
The cpu I would like to take to 4ghz+, and im not really that bothered about clocking the 480s, I just want them a bit cooler and a bit quieter
I would like to keep everything inside the case so my first idea was two loops.....cpu+chipset first loop, 3x 480s second loop.
first loop would be a 360 rad on the top of the case, second loop would be a 240 rad on the bottom of the case. I could do it the other way around but as I mentioned I am more interested in clocking the cpu than the graphics cards.
Other option could be a single loop with the two rads, one before the cpu/chipset, 2nd rad before the gpus but I thinking this will give overall higher temps?
Any other suggestions / opinions? Is a 240 rad enough to cool 3x 480s safely ?
cheers,
ten
