Loop in Enthoo Pro M

[Hazorazor]

I currently have an i7 4790K which runs at 4.8GHz with 1.3V. I have been using a Silverstone Tundra TD02-E which has not been sufficient in cooling it when overclocked, especially due to the heat in summer. I also have a MSI R9 390 Gaming which runs quite hot despite great airflow in and out of the case by two Noctua NF-A14 Industrial PPC (3000RPM).

 

So currently I was considering a custom loop if a block gets released for my graphics card. I am not sure if I can fit say a 280mm or another 240mm rad in the front with the drive bay still in its normal position in the Enthoo Pro M.

 

Current idea is to get:

 

CPU Block: EK Supremacy Evo Nickel Plexi

GPU Block: Whatever becomes available.

Pump/Res Combo: EK XRES 140 Revo D5 PWM

Radiators: Unsure

Fittings: EK ACF Compression Fitting Nickel (3/8 ID 5/8 OD)

Tubing: PrimoChill PrimoFlex Advanced LRT Clear (3/8 ID 5/8 OD)

Coolant: EK Ekoolant EVO Clear Premix

 

Any suggestions would be great as it is really hard figuring out what can fit in the Pro M nicely. Would really like to use 1x 240 Rad and 1x 280 Rad if possible due to already have 2x NF-F12's and 2x NF-A14's.

The Enthoo Pro M has pretty flexible mounting but you can fit a 280mm rad in the front, you will need to move the drive bays though, in the top a 240mm or even better a 360mm rad would do great, a bit more than needed for a single CPU, GPU loop but will give great silent cooling if your wanting that.

Thanks for replying. I really don't mind adding a little bit more rad space than usual needed for a single CPU and GPU. Basically tossing up positioning and sizes. If I were to keep the hdd cage as is do you think a 240 in the top and a single 140 in the front would work well? Only reason I was looking at a 240 or 280 in the front as well is the pricing for it isn't that much more. I was also looking at some of the Hardware Labs GTS XFlow rads. If I went with two of those I was thinking 280 in top and 240 in front might work?

It would be better to go with longer rads like a 360mm since longer rads tend to provide better cooling that a bunch of shorter ones. In the front if your ok with 120mm type rads it is fairly flexible in mounting with slots for the fans/rads instead of fixed mounting points:

EK say they have a block coming soon for your gpu btw

Anyway I guess ill see what I can decide on. May just end up going with the EK Predator 360 and adding the GPU block to that.
