GPU Cooling

[sgtsmokey]

I want to know what is the best and most efficient "sealed" water cooler for a R9 290. Similar to the NZXT Kraken (Review is the voltage input temperatures go over 100c!) or the Arctic Accellero Hybrid. But i want to know if one is truly reliable and what is it.

If there is not one I am going to just have a dedicated loop on the GPU as I have a 8320 OC 4.5ghz running on a H55 50c under load doing ok

Maintenance free and simplicity is my only attraction and i have no problem with fitting a separate loop.if I have to.

G10 with the best Asetek-based AIO? NZXT Kraken x60 for example. The Asetek-based solutions are all pretty similar, look at the price.

all the g10 Kraken reviews say its good at keeping the core and ram speeds low but is in affective at keeping the power input components below 100c.

 

finance isnt a bugdet issue, after buying the R9 290 with 1 weeks paycheck water cooling is nothing. i just want the best!

The only ones I have heard of are the Accellero Hybrid and G10.  It sounds like a loop attached to one of those CPU cooler/pump combos would be the best choice.

Cheers guys if i go a head with it this way i will get the g10 and x60 from NZXT

after watching a hundred reviews, its the vrm modules that dont get efficient cooling from these things. just going to install a dedicated water loop on my gpu to a push/pull 140 rad

if you are going through all that for the GPU, just bite the bullet and include the CPU as well.

with two toasty devices you could use all the cooling help necessary.

a 2x 240x 60 radiators with 1200-1400rpm fans and your golden.
