Is this all i need?

Going to go for a watercooling setup within my current corsair 300r case.

would this be everything i need or enough rad size to cool 2x7970 and a i7 920?

just flicked through the guide and i seem to have everything, though im unsure if i have the right sizes and rights amount or rad space to cool efficiently

Sorry for poor paint skills, a quick mock of of whats in my head

i already have all corsair af fans ready, would this work or have i fundamentally got some bits wrong?

Yes if I need the d5 I will

Thanks that's the kind of help I was looking for.

Do I have all the other components right? Will the rads be sufficient to cool my setup? Or maybe I could remove the hd cage and change the 140 for another 280?

Heard great things of xspc rads. Haven't really looked into the blocks, the ek clear one looks good and is cheaper! So win win!!

Wanted all clear, so will change, thanks for pointing it out. Going for a quiet system so will keep the 120 in and use two 280s.

All my fans will be on 7v and are whisper quiet. Want a rig that's quiet as possible!

Do I need some kind of special connection between my two cards water blocks?

Thanks guys this is the help I needed, will be ordering tonight!

For all your help I'll go with the watercool for 89! Haha
Are the backplates purely for show? No heat purpose?

Also I will remove my DVD drive and add a fan controller, I can't remember the last time I used it anyway! Windows 7 and 8 both on USB sticks now.

Again thanks for your help! No doubt ill have more questions when it all arrives!

Two for the pump! That's what I didn't count.

Thanks guys, I'm sure you can tell I'm an absolute novice to wc'ing!

Do I need some special connection to go between the two watercool blocks on the gpus?

scorchedbee · 24 Jul 2013 at 21:19

Thank you for that! Yes that set does use compression ones!

And why do things by halfs! I was just going to do the CPU, but may as well go the whole hog! It's been on the cards for months, finally jumping in!

I'll just use tubing between gpus!

Though looking removing my hd cage seems like it might be a pain, so may go with 140 rad in front as it my dreamel skills aren't the best!

I feel like I need luck here!! Should be nice and quiet by the end!

scorchedbee · 24 Jul 2013 at 21:37

They are mate. Any reason? I find them quiet. Until you crossfire, then the top card plays at 100% and over 80 degrees!

I'll keep my drill away and get a 140!

scorchedbee · 24 Jul 2013 at 22:52

Yeah I think it's a reference PCB. Thankfully, if all goes well ill see if anyone needs the wind force cooler here!

scorchedbee · 25 Jul 2013 at 08:01

Not ordered yet! Yes that's my cards, is t a custem pcb? If so what are my options?

I've seen the gpu blocks that aren't full card but I wanted the memory cooling too really
