Posted June 29, 2015 Author Do you think I can get away with a 280 rad and a 360? My case cant hold 2 360's also should I get a new PSU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted June 29, 2015 I just upgraded my CPU block to an EK Supremacy EVO. I got the clear version which looks amazing because you can see the coolant flowing through the block. It was also SUPER easy to install which was a big plus because my prior block turned into quite a headache when trying to install it. Yes a 360 and 280 should be good enough since your limited in radiator space. Get the thickest Rads you can fit for max cooling potential and some quality static pressure fans. As for the GPU blocks I have the EK full cover Acetal+Nickel and backplate. Again super quality and easy to install. EK really is a huge step above the competition when it comes to blocks IMO.
