For the rad space, those are great temps on the cards.
How does seti@home compare to a 'proper' gaming load?
100% cpu + gpu load - ie, like benching

it's not "great" temps but it's sure as hell over 9000x quieter than air cooling
This is one thing which is pushing me more and more towards a custom loop. My air cooling is adequate for what I'm running but when you think the wife wants to go to bed and the reference cooler is running at 60% along with 4 case fans on full, its gets loud.
Do you think its worth going crossfire or should I look at single GPU with a heavy overclock first?
I do have space for a 3rd rad but it would block the 2nd PCIE slot.

when i briefly tested mining after building the loop, temps were 54ish on the gpu iirc, during summer too
You may have space for a third rad, but do you have the appropriate ventilation/airflow setup to support it?
Are you going to have a bunch of rads competing for fresh air or and/or feeding hot air into each other etc?
I'd try single card with nice OC first tbh
Fair enough. I still think you have a miracle setup there though
When I was mining, I tried dual loop with a 360 on each 7990 and a parallel setup with triple 360's and the rads still got saturated each time...
It did baffle the hell out of me tbh. It should have been perfectly fine.
have it all as intake, and use 2x80mm fans as exhaust
Just had a look at your build log, and I can't really see how you have space for a rad+fans at the bottom with two cards.
At the very least, it'd be pressed right up against the block.
Anyway, I agree with Tamzzy fwiw![]()
Yeah, I guess.
I still say to get the one underwater and see how you get on. You can always look into adding another at a later date.
True. You could also get Parvum to make you a matching pedestal for an extra rad.
That would be pretty sweet![]()
