Would it be possible to realistically water cool a 7970 and FX 8350 using only two 140mm rads?
One of my buddies is thinking of water cooling his system but he's running a HTPC case and can only fit in 2 140mm rads. He's thinking of using water cooling because he's having some thermal issues with the air flow due to the size of the 7970 blocking air reaching the cpu. He wants to cool the gpu and cpu using a dual loop with each loop using only one 140mm rad but I figure he'd be better off just focusing on cooling the cpu since the gpu never has any issues.
What do you all think?
