ok so i'm soon going to be ordering my first water cooling setup and i have a couple questions for the veterans out there. all questions relate to the kit i am getting (Thermaltake Big Water 745)
1. I am buying the BigWater kit as well as a thermaltake GPU block. My question is can I tie the GPU (x1900xt) into the loop with the CPU and still be fine using the Big Water.
2. If i did tie the GPU in would the BigWater be able to handle both CPU and GPU on only the single 120mm radiator or would i need to use both?
3. Using one radiator or both what would be the best flow pattern for my setup. My system specs are as follows.
x2 3800+ @ 2.6ghz 1.45 volts
2 gigs G.Skill DDR400 2.5-3-4-6 @ DDR 416 2-3-3-6 2.8volts
eVGA SLI mobo
x1900xt (coming in Friday to replace my 7900gt)
e-Power Cheetah 520w 28a 12v
various others of little importance here
So throw me some knowledge and let me feast on it in preparation for my big jump. I have long been an air OC freak, now air can no longer hold me.
