Will this loop be cool enough.

Planning to cool an Intel Core i7 4790k with a safe/moderate overclock and an Asus Geforce GTX 980 4gb in this build: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/221177-rog-themed-build/

 

Here is the image at the bottom of that post: post-143539-0-31993900-1411522566_thumb.

 

Will it stay cool enough? The computer will be situated in an sealed room with a heat chimney and the ambient temperatures will be fairly low most of the year round.

 

Regards,

Sobaka

Welcome to the forum.

Looks like it will be enough. What fans are you planning to run on this build?

Cooler conditions around the pc will help with cooling in general.

The fans are Bitfenix Spectre Pro red led. There are two 120mm in the top of the case exhausting, one 140mm on the rear radiator in pull and two 120mm on the front radiator in pull, totalling 5 fans. Yeah the place I plan to move to is pretty high up in terms of altitude and gets snow in the winter. Thanks for the welcome  :)

To make sure I have the loop straight it goes like this (Starting at Reservoir): Reservoir->Pump->CPU->Radiator (140)->GPU->Radiator (240)?

Correct. Res - Pump - CPU - 140 - GPU - 240 - Res.

While the spectre pro's may look nice, their static pressure is fairly abysmal. http://www.anandtech.com/show/6177/choosing-the-best-120mm-radiator-fan-testing-eight-fans-with-corsairs-h80/5

I would avoid using them on the Rads. Corsair SP120's or NF-F12's would be better choices for the rad mounts.
