Going to have a 480mm RAD and a 240mm RAD to cool CPU & GPU (EK Supreme HF block for CPU and EK VGA Supreme HF for GPU)
1/2"ID 3/4"OD tubing and fittings.

MCP355 up for the job?

I have the 18W version but it is the one with the XSPC restop! is it bad then?

I use a 355 with a 200ml XSPC res top running a pair or 240mm rads and a cpu an 2 x 580's and it works fine.

Totally different subject but where do you have your RADs Krony? Top and Front or Rear and Front?

Here is martins spreadsheet will give you an idea of what to expect from a loop covering a variety of components, flow rates, fan speeds. Your pump will be fine

Click my sig and u can see some bad quality pics

Stupid upgrade bug lol, looking at upgrading to a LittleDevil PC-V8 ATX/HPTX case now lol but they are £400 ish atm and i would probably add in a 120.4 RX rad at another £110.
Personally i hear good things about the 655.
