Hi guys,

I'd like to get some ideas from all the sifus here icon_question.gif

the specs: i72600k; Nvidia GTX 580 1.5Gb

I'm planning to put 2 rads on my rigs,, 1 is xspc ex240, the other 1 is hwlabs gtx280.. now which 1 should i give the bigger rad, the CPU block or the GPU block?

I'm planning to make it : ex240 --> CPU --> gtx280 --> GPU --> res/pump or is it better to make it gtx280 --> CPU --> ex240 --> GPU --> res/pump ? or it doesn't even matter? rclxub.gif

I'm quite new with this so, need alot of advise please...thaaankss icon_question.gif icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

bigger radiator for cpu, so u can OCed more.

smaller radiator for gpu, since gpu cant oced too much. There is no fun behind it.

True Story.

Rather to have CPU chilled off then GPU cause it can't OC that much compare to CPU and the overall performance too .. nod.gif
