Simple question guys.

a thick 360radiator is enough for cooling the FX8350 mildy OC-ed with the new R9-290X?Or i need a 360 with a 240 together?

And what radiators can you guys suggest.

Thanks in advance.

The 360 should be enough. I cooled my oc 8350 and a 6990 on a thermochill pa 240 with no problems so you should be fine.

They will run hot and you wont have much overhead on the card if you want any OCing. I will be using a 240+360 for the same set up.

it wont run any hotter than a 6990.I will be running the same setup but thats only because thats what I have atm to run my tri-fire setup as well as the ch5's northbridge and mosfets and 8350.
