Completing my WC setup

[meistah]

Hey all, going to be going to WC in January. My goal is a verrrry quiet computer with no modding. Rad(s)
inside the case if possible. I will be cooling the following.

q9300 (already had a d-tek fuzion v1 given to me)
dfi lanparty p45-t2rs (was also given a swiftech chipset block)
2 XFX 4890s (have 2 full coverage blocks for these as well)
guess the rest of the specs don't really matter.

It's in a cm690 (the nvidia one). Not too worried If i have to spend a bit extra to get it all inside the case. But my thought was that I would do a dual rad up top and maybe a single at the back if necessary. For the fans I'll get something with strong airflow and use a fan controller for when I'm not gaming. Again I dont want to have to rip the case apart (eg, modding the top to fit a triple rad) Now I just need to figure out the rest of the parts I need and how I'm going to put em in.

Suggest away!

Don't forget to price match ALL water cooling parts at Direct Canada.
Noctua fans are stuck for the price, but Gelid Wings can be PM'ed down to $11.70 @ NXsource.

Yea, budget isn't too much of an issue, those parts seem easily doable. Is the price difference worth getting those parts over their swiftech equivalents?

If budget is an issue, you might as well get the Swiftech Rads instead.

However these rads are very well known for great performance with low RPM fans.

Here's a comparison of several models in the triple variation.

If you get large case like Cosmos S or HAF932, you can fit triple rad inside without any problems. If you are after silence, the game is easy: bigger rad(s) + slow fans balance.

I suggest against GELID on radiators specifically, try YL or Schythe or, if you can afford, 38mm/55mm fans that under volts well (you will need fan controller for that).

Better CPU block will help too, but it is optional.

I would recomend the Gentle Typhoon fans for sure for radiaotors. Grab the 1850RPM, and a fan controller (if you want) and your set. NCIX.com - Buy Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120MM Case Fan 1850RPM 28DB 58.3CFM - D1225C12B5AP-15 In Canada.

Yea, well im getting the cpu block for free so I dont want to go through the hassle of buying a new one and selling it... A new case Isn't a bad idea though.

[meistah]

Ok, based on second-hand deals and assuming I keep my case this is the setup I have come up with. It consists of a 120x2 swiftech rad w/ res. a 120.1 swiftech rad, laing d5 pump. the fuzion v1 cpu block and ek full coverage blocks on the 2 video cards.
Also included is my colorful failed mockup

Is there a T-line or res?

How will you fill the loop?

[meistah]

the 120.2 swiftech has a built in res.
