hey guys i have a 650d case and with some modding to my case i could get a 420 rad in the top using Koolance 3x140mm Fan Radiator Shroud, Black now i want to cool my cpu and gpu i could fit a 200mm rad in the front but research tells me there rubbish i would use a d5 pump/res combo i could buy a 900d if the 420 isn't enough but then that's another 280 quid i can afford it but i like this case :)


my cpu is i7 950 @4.2
my gpu is gtx 780 @ +130 gpu clock
+300 mem clock


thanks
 
You sure the 420 will fit? I'd just go for a 360 rad, personally. That'd give you all the cooling you needed, and you could add a 240 to the front if you really wanted - don't know how the 200mm rad is meant to fit though.
 
You won't find much difference between 360 and 420 rads.
It will be actually easier to use 360 because all best fans come in 120mm size.
I'd just use 360+120 and you'd be fine.
Depends on the rads you use, but I'll tell you what I have in my S8.
I admit that I have 3 360 rads, but they are set in push only, with Enermax sub1k fans, D5 set at 3 speed setting and my temps are great, especially on my 780s ( max 33 in Unigine Valley, a bit over 40 oc'ed ).
Anyway, just go for 120.x rads, it's much easier to get fans for them.
