looking for recommendations on creating a loop for just my gpus. I've got 2 5870s that id like to water cool in a Panzerbox case that allows for a 120.2 setup to be mounted inside the case. Im not concerned about the processor as I have a corsair H50 keeping it under control. My objective is to silence the fan noise while keeping the gpus as cool at a minium as the stock cooler does...although im sure most any aftermarket cooler can accomplish that. Thanks for any info guys.
 
you didnt really ask a question, you just stated what you are doing. what recommendations do you want?

I figured that was the starter for a question...or revised...I want to cool my 2 5870s and only my 5870s, can someone recommend a good setup that includes a 120.2 radiator?
 
a loop is made up of a pump, resevoir, radiator, and water blocks (and tubing). you already know what you want to cool and what size radiator you want, so just go pick out the rest of the components and throw it together. if you are unsure as to how exactly- there are several stickies at the top of the forum specifically for that.

for instance
i put "5870 waterblock" into google and found this in the top 3, pretty good price too.

if you are looking for someone to do all the legwork for you and hand you a shopping list, you keep waiting for someone else to chime in.
 
Obviously im trying to "pick the brains" of the people that have used this stuff before and what, in their opinions, is the better equipment to use...because they have experiance in using this stuff. That's obviously lost on you as you think im just trying to be lazy, id rather the thread die then have your type of feedback thank you.
