XFire waterloop question*

So, I am planning on watercooling my GPUs (HD7970 and a R9 280X) and I am curious as to whether or not I should get a second 360mm radiator to give it adequate cooling for them. 

 

I'm swapping out my Corsair 300R for a NZXT H440 to fit the extra rads. Any suggestions are welcome! 

 

I'm clearly a retard. XFire.

Well I live in a region where I have to run them both on 80% when not on load. So watercooling them seems like a better solution for the longevity of them.

Nah, a thick 360 in the front should have you covered. I'd go with a 360 Alphacool UT60. 

 

AFAIK you can't have dual 360's in the H440 anyway. Thick 360 in the front, 30mm 240/280 (depends on thickness of the front rad) in the top.
