Hi,

Planning to go to a 4670k from a Q6600, I currently have a slim EK 360 rad but in the bottom of my RV02-EW it really limits what GFX card I can fit (roughly 260mm).

I was hoping if I fitted a 120/140/180 rad I would leave some room on the left of my case for a longer card to sit in.....the question is how small a rad could I get away with to run a 4670K CPU only loop.

I might be able to squeeze in 2 120mm rads, one in the roof and one in the bottom, if that would help. I might overclock at some point but I probably will never do a full CPU & GFX loop.
 
A single 240/2x120mm would be the minimum I'd air for

A single rad was just about enough to cool my Phenom II @ 4ghz with 1.45v but temperatures we're no better than high end air, and it was just as noisy.
