As the title says, I'm in the process of getting the parts for my first full hard line set up & I dont know if I've made a mistake or not as my case
(Silverastone FT02) isn't the best for watercooling & I need some advice.
I was planning on using a twin bay Monsoon m2 reservoir in the bottom two bays with 16mm tubing, running to a Evga gtx1070 FTW then up to a 120mm 30mm
Alphacool radiator with a 120mm fan then down to the 7700K then down to the 360mm 30mm Alphacool ST30 radiator then back up to the reservoir but...
I suddenly started thinking that the reservoir might be too low as the 120mm top radiator will be 5 or 6" higher up than the reservoir ?
I was considering on not using the 120mm radiator & just using the 360 30mm but don't think the 360 will be enough on its own,
also the reason I'm going with the 30mm radiator is that I only have 40mm clearence to play with.
I'm also unsure about running the 360mm 30cm radiator on top of the stock 180mm fan's in the case or whether to take the stock fan's out &
just get new 120mm fan's instead as the 180mm fan's are at least 5 yrs old now & use new dust filter's to replace the case's stock filter's ?
thanks
