I would like to watter cool the CPU too, but my hart is hurting becouse i wasted money on that CPU cooler. (this PC is 3 months old)

Well, seeing as watercooling isn't essential, you may as well save for another GPU if you want one and then save up for watercooling after that so that your CPU cooler gets a decent amount of usage before replacing it.

Hi everyone. I have a question. I have a GTX 780 EVGA SC and i would like to know if it is a god idea to only wattercool the GPU. I want it to wattercool it so that i could put a second or third GPU in there. My CPU is alredy being wattercooled. I want to puch my baby(s) to the limit :). Thanks. (the cablemanagment looks MUCH better now)  :)

If you have the money to do it, then go ahead. If you plan on using a custom loop, it would be a good idea to add the CPU into the loop too. Just need to make sure you have enough radiator space as you'll probably want 360mm total rad space.

I'm pretty sure that you can add another card without having to water cool.
If you're fine with the added work and maintenance involved, go for it! I love the look of water cooled systems, but would never do it myself. I don't have the patience to maintain it.
