Recommended cooling for overclocking

[Ghgsrt]

This question isn't solely pointed towards GPUs but here goes:

With an overclocked setup with a GTX 1080 Ti and an I7-7700k what would be the optimal cooling combination?

Im talking full system liquid cooling or just some combination of hybrid/air cool fans 1080 and liquid cooled/fans for the i7 or any other possible cooling option for these two. 

Note: these will be stuffed in a mini-itx case

Also what wattage PSU would you guys recommend?

Thanks!

As long as you don't have the Armor 1080 Ti you'll be fine with the stock cooling on your GPU and a reasonable air cooler/AIO on the CPU. With ambient overclocking it's more about the tradeoff with silence than maximum cooling; keeping components cool enough to not throttle even with a respectable overclock isn't difficult.

 

There are plenty of great 550W PSU's on the market if you're on a budget; anything over that will work too.

 

What 1080 Ti, motherboard, and ITX case in particular?

I was thinking if hybrid one of the EVGA ones otherwise looks like most likely the Zotac one (sorry for no links). 

Mother board is the Asus z270i pro gaming 

and the case I was looking at was the new BitFenix Portal

That case is a bit limiting for liquid cooling; a single 120mm fan slot is pretty much all you have. The advantage of the case is ample room for intake around the GPU; an air-cooled card would be preferable. The ideal config would be a 120mm AIO on the CPU in push-pull (you have the space for a fairly thick rad) and a normal graphics card.

The reason I brought up the option of full system cooling actually is that if I can remember correctly it should be able to fit EKWB s120 or s240

The only thing with that though is it's very expensive and at that point I'd have to go for a special GPU with one of the water cooling casings to save the $40 more it'd cost to get EKWBs waterblock

It's not going to cool better. A single 120mm rad is not ideal for both the CPU and GPU. The Zotac custom loop card is good but the case just isn't made for that sort of setup.

Alright, so you don't even think it's worth going for a hybrid card?

Not at all.

The ASUS STRIX version has the best cooling out of pretty much all the 1080ti cards. Consider that. 

 

You can get 50C using liquid on GPU. The GPU doesn't need as big as a rad as a CPU.
