Hi, I will be building a computer case as part of a school project and i think i have pretty much settled on this design.
The components which will be used are those in my sig and probably a 680 if i can scrape the funds. If not then i will make a custom block for the 560Ti

What i'm asking is if having radiators in this configuration is suitable for the hefty cooling required for a good overclock on my 3770 and a GPU?
I can extend the case to make room for dual 360mm rads but i figured this wayy would be overkill for a single GPU setup.

Also any comments on the general design of the case and opinions would be appreciated. Thanks :)
 
that really does look like the dogs proverbial danglie's tbh

a 240x2 rad set up should be more than enough for that chip and pretty much any upto date graphics card, baring a crossfire or SLI setup.
 
Sweet thanks, appreciated :D

Don't think I'll be going SLI for a good while yet, bit unnecessary for me :)

Can't see me starting building much before August but I have some rendering and detailed modelling to do before then
 
Is the entire back of the case perforated? That would be required for either exhaust if the rads are pulling air in, or as intake if the rads are blowing air out.
 
That is an option, however the plan was to blow air straight through from left to right or vice versa. Having not water cooled before i'm not sure how much difference it would make having slightly warmer air through the second radiator?
