Hey guys,
I'm running an Asus R9 390x Strix DC3 OC Card, which pumps out some serious heat even with a custom fan curve (can hit 75+ degrees). As I'm going to fit an NZXT Kraken X62 or X52 to my CPU, I was wondering where you would advise fitting the Kraken radiator in the case and which Kraken you would go for?
I'm worried that fitting the radiator to the front of the case in place of two 120mm fans, I'll end up with a lot of built up heat in the case, even with three exhaust fans (2 top, 1 rear).
Has anyone got a suggestion for what they think would be the best layout for the radiator and fans in this case? I have plenty of AF & SP fans to play with.
Many thanks!
(I've given up on the idea of watercooling my card, as after seeing results of a 390x, its just not worth the money.)
