Hello,
so I want to cool a 4870x2,overclocked Quad and maybe a mobo. Which is the best cooling setup i can buy for this.
Also if you can recommend me a case to fit all the watercooling stuff inside.
Some guys from another forum recommended me for this setup a 9x120mm rad(Watercool Mo-Ra 2 pro).
Is there a case that fits two triple rads? Will two triple rads have enough cooling power?
 
You can see my sig rig.

I am getting the XSPC Razor for my 4870x2 in the next couple of weeks.

I have the MCR320 for my CPU and will be adding another MCR220 for my GPU and NB cooling.

My case is a full tower the GS1000, but it is jam packed with my 320 on the backside and the 220 will go inside.

I am sure if you search the forums you can see the cases that others are using and look at their pics to see their setups that will work for you.

Good luck.
 
I am using the XSPC razor with my 4870x2. Very good block for only $85. I get 32-35c after hours in Crysis / 1920x1200 Very High settings.
 
You gotta tell us your budget. Two Triple Rads inside the case? That would have to be a pretty big case. I think the Feser Rads are probably the best just from what I've heard. If you look at the thread in my sig you can get an idea of what kind of temps you'd see with a Quadruple Feser Rad. The triple feser rads are a tad expensive though. The quadruple feser 480 rad is on sale for $149 at jab-tech. Not a bad price considering the feser triple is $139.

MCP655 is definitely good. If you decide to use a T line instead of a Reservoir, you probably should get the one that has the variable speed option. I find that having a variable speed pump is really unnecessary though if you have a big reservoir.
 
9.120 Mo-Ra 2 Pro is the radiator.
Pump should be silent(not dead silent). Max budget for pump:200$.
Are dual DDC Laings a good idea?
I heard that the Iwaki RD30 is near godlike but it tends to be quite noisy.

Click to expand...

You can get the MCP655 for around $70...so well under your $200.

I am not familar in the DDC laings and Iwaki items.
 
I got the one without speed control and I don't hear it at all. But I agree, get the one with speed control.
