I've got this beast and I would like to water cool it in order to avoid the damn noise from its fan.

2 questions came to mind.

1) Is a single rad good enough for 1 high end gpu with a low rotating fan or better dual rad?

2) Is this res http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-008-EK&groupid=962&catid=1551&subcat= appropriate for my setup or should I go for the cheaper http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-089-EK&groupid=962&catid=1551&subcat=.

I only wish to watercool my gpu and nothing else.
 
It might not be worth it.
With the warranty voiding, and 590's dying left right and centre you should ideally put up with the sound.

Although, a single 120.1 won't be enough for a 590.

update pls :p?
 
I reckon you might get away with a single, but you'd have to have a high speed fan on there, negating the point of watercooling in the first place.

The small res will be fine, so I'd suggest getting that and putting a bit of extra cash towards a larger rad.
