I have to help someone with a system next weekend and I am needing ideas. I haven't water cooled in almost 5 years. The setup is in a Cooler Master Cosmos case. The client will not change cases and has hot hot temps with his dual GX2 setup and E8400. The E8400 is on a small cooler master water cooling kit. The client wants both video cards water cooled. Should we leave the cooler master water cooling unit in place or replace it all with a custom kit? I had planned on using Danger Den for all my parts. How would you do it? How many radiators, loops, pumps etc? Would you water cooler the northbridge? I believe the board is an asus striker. Thx for any advice.. until then I will keep reading!
 
You will need at least a 3x120mm radiator to cool those two GX2's, if you can find room in the case for another 120mm worth that would be best. (be it a 4x120mm or 3x120 + 1x120).

I would leave the CPU either in its own custom loop, or on the corsair kit. Don't cool the northbridge as long as you are still maintaining decent air flow in the case.
