This is what I might be buying. The H60 + NF-F12 are for the CPU (Athlon X4 760K), the H90 + NF-A14 FLX + NF-B9-PWM + NZXT Kraken G10 are for the GPU (R9 270X) (I will be buying VRM and RAM heat sinks as well becasue It improves vrm temps dramatically) and the 2 x NF-R8-PWM are for exhaust from the case. Would this be a good way to go? And would the G10 fit in the Corsair 250d as it is a 2 and a half slot cooler?

The H60 will be mounted on the dual 120mm fan side (the right, since the radiator is 120x152x27 will I be able to put another 120mm fan next to it?) And the h90 will be mounted at the front of the case.

The radiators would all fit, but I seriously doubt the G10 would. Even if it did, with the amount of money you're spending on it I would just get a 280X instead. I realise a 270X plus Kraken won't cost you quite as much as a 280X, but it does make the step up reasonably small considering the extra performance you'd get.

You *might* be able to fit the Kraken G10 in there as it appears to be 2 slots + some breathing room for the card. However it would be a very tight fit or you'd need to mod the kraken or case to make it fit.

Any particular reason why you want to use the G10 on a 270X? You could upgrade something else in the system for the £99~ you'd save

Also you might want to remove the ebay link before the mods come along, these heatsinks are cheaper anyways

Thank you for the link to those heatsinks I removed the link
What should I upgrade instead? I am still going to water cool my CPU with the h60 or h100i. And I'm not really sure why I wanted to use the g10 just love the idea of water cooling but don't want my own loop... Scared xD
