Fractal Node 804 - custom loop?

Just have like 1 120mm rad. Would be badass and hot.

Cooling an overclocked CPU and 2 R9 390 GPUs?

 

I don't think it wouldn't melt the case.

Dont recommend that ... one is ok ...

you'd want a 360mm radiator or a 240mm  and a 120, I would NOT recommend that.

I would get a bigger case if you want to do a custom loop. You're having the heat from 2 GPU's come out AND the heat from a overclocked CPU. Trust me, you don't wanna do it on a 240mm radiator.

Melt the case no, but it would not help thermals. It would look cool.

I don't understand.

 

You wouldn't recommend me watercooling a CPU  and 2 GPUs?

 

Isn't that what watercooling is for?

They won't be enough Rad space in my preference ... normally i would have a 120mm at least for one GPU(240 is recommended).

Doesn't the case have space for 2 120m's, 5 240mm mounts??

 

Of course I wouldn't use all the mounts, it would be a waste. But point being I'm pretty sure the case can accommodate as many radiator mounts as necessary.

Its not that he doesn't recommend it, its that you want a bigger radiator size to dissipate hear more effectively.

The bigger surface area the better, for a GPU you'd want about 120mm of surface area to dissipate the heat (Typically) and for a CPU 120 up to 240mm of surface area.

you're trying to cream up to 3 components that would need about minimum 360mm of radiator surface area and would like up to  480mm of surface area 

It ONLY has room for 1 120mm and 1 240mm radiator mount. Not to mention, where you'd fit the pump or reservoir. It'd be about impossible to do a custom loop with 2 GPU"s and a CPU in that case and if you really wanted to do that 240mm and 120mm radiator mount, you'd have to get really creative to make that work.

Hey guys check out this review. HardwareCanucks managed to fit a 120mm rad in the front, 240mm rad in the front top and a 280mm rad at the top back.

 

I have yet to figure out where he put the pump and reservoir but he shows it's possible.
