Hi,

I've currently got an EX240 and a EX360 crossflow rad in my system but I'm not happy with my temps.

I think the problem is twofold - the 240 rad isn't getting enough air (need to dremel my case) and the rads are not thick enough to cool my 4770k and two 7950s, all oc'd.

Can anyone recommend a 60mm 360 rad with cross-flow ports?

Edit:
This is to go in a 800D by the way :)

800D is a pretty big case, are you sure you need them to be Crossflow?

What are your temps and what fans, 600mm of EX rads should be fine for your rig but i suppose that depends on what you class as acceptable temps/noise.

I have a bay res/pump so to keep it tidy I have the 360 connected at the front end and then at the back it goes into the nb/cpu. I didn't want lots of tubing running across the case.

I'm using GTs on the rads set to 1200rpm so they're almost silent and the D5 pump is set to 2.5, also to be almost silent.

GPUs are 35c idle, hitting 57c on load (oc'd to 1125gpu/1575mem) and cpu is 39c idle, hitting 62c on max load (4.6ghz oc). Ambient temp is about 24-27c. Water temp is 32c idle up to 40c under full load.

Maybe thicker rads are not what I need I guess. I think if I change the position of the bottom 240 rad (currently on it's side blowing hot air towards the non-window side of case) so that it's flat to the bottom of the case (pushing hot air into lower section of the case) and cut a hole in the bottom of the case and mount a grill for the rad it might help?
