can i cool my 9900k and msi 2080 ti with Ek a360g

[Optic]

right now i am cooling my 9900k with the kraken x72 and want to switch to the ek A360g so i can get better temps and be able to water cool my gpu. I dont know if i can watercool my cpu with the a360g, can someone let me know.

I wouldn't expect better temps vs the kraken even without the GPU. With the GPU your CPU temps are probably going to be worse than they were before.  If you go that route you should probably get at least another 240 rad to go with the kit.  Personally I recommend you don't get the A series stuff from EK. I know it's cheap, but it's also aluminum, which makes it incompatible with anything other than EK A series parts.

what do you think i should get to water cool my cpu and gpu that will get me better temps?

Go with quality stuff, not budget alu. EK makes great pump/res combos, their ZMT tubing is really easy to work with for a first build. They make good blocks too, but Watercool's Heakiller IV line is my personal preference, they're built a bit better IMO and they perform really well. I have a GTS slim rad IIRC, it's a really well made, nice rad, designed for airflow and such so you can run lower rpm fans. For a 9900K + 2080 Ti I'd go for at least a 360mm, if you have room I'd personally run two slim rads vs one thick one, then you can set your fans lower, making your rig as quiet as possible. What case have you got?

I remember wh en I had a custom loop from thermaltake a long long time ago.  The pump was nice no noise.  I had blocks on the CPU and GPU and my GPU always stayed at 40c , to 50c on load and the CPU stayed cool too, I don't remember what temps it reached tho.  You can suffice with a single rad,, a 280 or 360.  At some point your temps are so low and its a matter of what the card can do and its limits.

It's not necessarily a matter of a 360 rad being able to cool a CPU and a GPU, it's a matter of that rad being able to cool that CPU and GPU. Those are both high-wattage parts. Without even an OC he's looking at 400W+ of heat to remove under load.  One of the good thick 360 rads out there could possibly do it OK with moderate fan speeds, but the EK aluminum rads are basically aluminum versions of their SE line, which are their thinnest and worst cooling rads. You would have to run fans at high speed for it to work worth a crap, and even then the temps aren't going to be great.   IE it's going to be noisy and your temps will be sub-optimal and that's just assuming he doesn't OC.

I have personally cooled a heavily OC'd 3770K (4,7ghz @1.44v) and an OC'd 1080ti (2100mhz) with a single EK 360XE in p/p config and got pretty good temps with a good ambient (21C) running fans at about 1200rpm. The 360XE is almost twice as much radiator as the one included in that kit though. You could look at EK's X360 kit and throw a GPU block in with it. It will be manageable, but if you want it quiet you're still gonna need more rad space.
