do different rads make much difference.

im going to cool my CPU in 1 loop and GPU in another loop.

CPU block will be D-TEK fusion. GPU block full cover EK

pump will be a D5 or DCC

but i dont really want to spend nearly 60 quid on 120.2 thermochill rad

can i get away with do cheaper half decent rads?

Ok so i get a 120.2 PA for my cpu, but the GPU doesnt need such a performance rad, as i wont be raping the overclocks.

q6600 at 3.6 1.4v

i cant fit 120.3 rad in my case and the GPU is 8800GTS

Well i would be dumping close to 400watts of heat into the loop if you take everything into account, which means i would need some hi flow fans. I dont really want a noisy pc, dont mint a bit but not what my current air cooling is like.

yes i am going to overclock the cpu to its max

does the rez make much diff to the performance of the loop?

would it be ok to put a 120.1 after the cpu and before the GPU

like CPU ---> 120.1 rad ---> GPU so on.
