Do I need more radiator?

Hi, I'm currently running a 60mm triple 120 rad right now, and wondering if that plus a 60mm dual 120 rad would be enough to cool dual 780 plus the CPU.

I'm thinking maybe I'll add a single thick 120 on the back but i don't want to spend more if I don't have to

I say go 240mm per CPU (ESPECIALLY with your haswell, your haswell) and 120mm per GPU, so adding that 120mm would be good

even following your argumentation 360+2x120<3x120+2x120. Mathematics, dude.

 

No you will be fine. I am running a 4930k and dual 780s with a 360mm and 240mm rad, both 45 thick.

he's going to do 360 rad + a 120 rad <- he's adding just 1 120mm rad

He has an 360mm rad so and 120+120+240 is 480 so yeah. I think you should learn how math works.

My Pc: Cpu: I7 4790k @ 4,8 Ghz @1,25 volts, Motherboard: Maximus VII Formula, Graphicscard: 2x Titan X @1,4 at stock voltage (soon to be replaced), Ram: 32 gb Corsair Dominator Platinum 2133 Cl 9, SSD: 2x 850 Pro 1 Tb in Raid 0, 2x Samsung 840 Evo 1 tb raid 1,, PSU: Corsair HXi Series 1000W 80+ Platinum, Case: H440. Soon to be watercooled again, maybe, probably, the Titans are too loud.

Yes 480mm rad-space should be ok. I would go for more rads because if you have dual 780 setup saving money is kind of a joke.

haha yes you're correct

 

 

looks like i would be fine. okay. Time to watercool my GPUs I shoulda went for the 900D instead of NZXT 820 =/ that way i wouldn't be restricted with space but yeh

It's that he wrote that he has a 360mm rad and the topics name is do i need more rads? Yes because he needs 480mm... We were talking that he should just get an 120mm extra.

750D is the around the same size as the 820... plus I still need hard drive cages. Haven't got the feel to get a NAS yet though I really should.

I'm sorry, i should've worded my question better. My original intention was to ask whether 360+240 was enough >_< my English is so darn bad.
