Hi :)
TLDR: will a 360 and a 240 HWLabs Nemesis GTS be enough for a 6800k and 2 GTX 780 Ti's (or equivalent TDP cards in the future) ?
Fan setup will be Push only on the 360 and push/pull on the 240.
It's been a while since I was last around, been to busy with enjoying my rig and real life and stuff. Time has however come for me to upgrade my pc and in this upgrade I have decided to finally go over to the dark side and drop the thing under water.
The planned parts are currently:
Intel i7 6800k on a EVGA X99 FTW K and a single GTX 780 Ti(but will likely expand to a SLI setup at some point)
My case(a Fractal Design Define XL) is a little problematic, as it was never designed with watercooling in mind, and while I could replace it with something more suited, I like it a lot and think it would be neat to watercool in it. Some modifications will be necessary to accommodate the watercooling parts and space will be at a premium.
Having meassured it out, the best I can fit is a 360 and a 240 with a maximum thickness of 30mm. I have already gotten a hold of a HWLabs Nemesis GTS 360 and really like the build quality, so I will be ordering a 240 of the same series.
Now if I have already decided which parts I'm going with, why ask? Well, I like knowing the boundaries of the parts so I'm a little more prepared and can plan ahead better. If for instance you guys unanimously tell me that the rads won't have the heat dissipation necessary to keep 2 cards and the CPU at an acceptable temp, I can plan ahead and buy the strongest single card I can get my hands on within my budget instead.
Thoughts?
