I'm getting tired of the noise on 280 SLI, so am thinking of going WC

Here's what I've chosen for the build:
Radiator: Black Water 122 Advanced rev.2
Blocks: AquagraFX GTX 260/280 x2
Pump: Alphacool AGB-Eheim 600 12V

Wonder if the radiator be big enough to go also for CPU cooling, or should I leave it on air (getting 3,6 without problems, and the cpu cooler also gets some air through all the chipset cooling on my mobo)
 
Maybe I'm a noob since I've never watercooled before.

However, if I was going to switch to H2O. Then the CPU would be the FIRST thing I cooled.
 
I don't do WC to overclock machine... I do it to kill the noise - and the SLI 280 is damn loud when playing, so I want to silence them first. I get good and silent cooling on CPU, so it can stay on air
 
I'm not familiar with that radiator so I don't know how it handles low speed fans. I know that the MCR320, PA120.3, and Feser 360 all like low speed fans however. You will probably need a 120.3 radiator to cool two 280 GTX's.
