This is the photo i took yesterday. This is the current status of the new rig.
I've installed major portions of what's needed inside the computer as well as the cooling system.
- Installed Reservoir and Pump around the back of the case.
- Installed 240mm ( Push / Pull ) Radiator and 360mm (Push) Radiator.
- Installed CPU Water block.
- Requested RMA on wrongly shipped products
If possible, i'm planning to do Push / Pull config on the 360 mm radiator as well. But chances are slim due to the clearance issue with the fittings. It's not too bad though, since 240 / 360 rad will be enough to cool my system. Though that juicy airflow from push/pull is something you definitely wanna get.
Full Spcs of my new Rig :
Intel I7 5820K CPU ( 6 Core / 3.3 Ghz ) - Will be watercooled overclocked
ASUS X99-A Motherboard
2 x 8GB Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR4 2400 Mhz Memory
MSI GTX 980 Twin Frozr - Will be watercooled and overclocked
240 GB Kingston HyperX SSD
480 GB of extra SSD (*Pending)
2 TB Wetern Digital Black HDD
1 TB Seagate Barracuda HDD
Super Flower SF850MP 850 Watts 80+ Platinum Fully Modular Power Supply
Coolgate EX240 & EX360

Ultimate answer will be no. Not too much. It's an overkill rig, and probably 120mm rad could have cooled the graphics card. But the thing is this is the first time i'm building the rig with my own money and i want it the way i want it. So i'm just putting maximum cooling that i can put inside.
