Hey guyz!!1

Just in the process of sorting out bits and bobs for my new rig:

main bits:

i7 920
2x 260GTXs (SLI)
on an Asus P6T Motherboard.
All inside a Coolermaster ATC-410-SX1

W/C stuff i'm thinking of,

Swiftech GTZ block + 1366 backplate.
2x Koolance GTX 260 full cover GPU blocks.
Danger Den dual 5inch perspex res
Laing D5 pump
Thermochill PA120.3 radiator + 3 high speed 120mm fans.
1/2" tubing all around.

Any thoughts on whether this would be a good spec to get my 920 to around 4Ghz, and to remove the bonkers amount of heat coming from the gfx to allow me to push them a bit more.
 
Have you already bought your main bits? If not Id recomend just getting a 280 or wait a few days and get a 295, rather than buying 2x260's
Sorry cant help with your WC kit, air all the way

Sigh... I wish I had a pound for every single time i've heard this sort of thing every single time i've bought ANY graphics card at just about ANY time!!!!!
:rolleyes: :D
 
I wouldn't do a separate res with a D5, better to get a DDC with the XSPC res top unless you think a visible res adds 'bling'. other than that you should be fine with that. Make sure you put the fans on a fan controller because most of the time you simply won't need "high-speed".

Cheers, already bought the pump, would *personally * like the bling, what decent fan controller would you recommend? I was thinking of putting them all on a Scythe!
