Quick question guys and gals

afternoon internet people

 

I'm about to start my Acrylic bending filled afternoon/ night and i have found that my fittings won't fit in some places

 

My question is :

 

Is there a big difference in temp with stacking rad as in (Rad -pulling fan pushing- rad) air in that orientation and by stacked i mean no gaps in the rad  the water loop would enter through  the rear rad through a sli joiner into the front rad to cool more then out to the rest of the loop

 

I planned this as i have no were else mount another rad

I think he means some sort of fucked up inverted push-pull where there's 2 radiators on the outside and fans in the middle.

Does stacking Rads increase the cooling efficiency

Because it lessens the air flow, looks terrible and you are blowing hot air directly into the second rad.

they would happen to Alphacool 280's  by 60mm and the case is my custom draw case

 the rad samwich was to be mounted on in the bottom holes drawing air in  then up the  and out the back behind the mobo panel

 i see but with  fans i felt the airflow through both rads and it seems like a fair bit and the water from the blocks would be entering the rear Rad  then passing throught the front

Well think about it. The coolant can only get as cool as the air. So your blowing air from the first rad which (I think) is about the temperature of the coolant. The second rad is wasted.

Theres nothing stopping you from giving it a go and see how it fairs. If it doesn't work, then try again.

i am asking all this as i'm having trouble  fittings of it but if the verdict is that it won't increase the cooling affect that much then i'll only run one rad in saying that will one 280 rad be enough to cool one R9 290 and a I5 Neither of those will be OC

if a single UT60 280 can cool a non-overclocked LGA2011 and 2x 780 cards,

you shouldn't have an issue. only when you push the voltages is where you'll

get into trouble and you might not like the fan noise. actually undervolting the

stock multiplier is a life-line to consider. makes it 10-15° cooler on CPU and

5-10° on GPU.

 

just say no to rad-sandwiches. the water flow is to intense and fast, the

saturation from one to the other would almost negate the use of the radiators

in the first place.
