Overclocking help

[xo4ox]

hi, i finally have all the parts needed for my system (except for the coolant which is on the way) and i wanted to ask a Q, will the pump&res handle another radiator same as the one i ordered (res, pump and rad) and if it will, how should i configure the loop? is 1strad->res&pump->cpu->nb->sb->2ndrad->vidcards->1strad good?

thanks guys

yes it will. heres how you are going to want this to go

Pump CPU>NB>RAD>VID>SB> RAD that would be messy and would be alot of tubing(possibly a pain to set up). but would work the best imo. NB and SB really dont add a detramental amount of heat to the loop.

thanks blue, ok another question, is it worth it if i watercool the volt regs also? because if im getting a second rad i would like to add the volt reg blocks too.

Water cooling the v-regs greatly affects your pc's performance during higher overclocks. I would recommend it even if you only plan to overclock moderately or even just for benchmarking/speed runs.

thanks Exterminator for the help

can someone help me find a volt reg block for evga 680i mobo! i cant seem to find one anywhere

[Exterminator]

Do you know the exact model #? I dont think Koolance has any, but Ill check around.

if you mean the mobo model # here is it:
EVGA | Products

vreg cooling will really only prolong the life of your mobo, but may help vdroop. EK i think makes a water block for the 680i from evga.
