Slowly preparing for my first custom water cooling set up. Not sure how many radiators I need. I was planning to cool an intel Core 2 cpu E6400 @ 3.2 and a Nvidia 8800 GTX. Would two radiators with a 120 fan on each be sufficient or is three needed? Two would be easy to put in my case with no modifications. Three will require some modifications. Cooling the northbridge is a possible option. Thanks for all the respond.

You should be looking at a SINGLE 120.3 radiator if possible...

I believe you can put a PA120.3 in the bottom of the TJ07 if that is the case I am thinking of...

It is possible to put four radiators with 120s in the bottom (120.4) but you must remove the hard drive bays. Two fit easily without removing the hard drive bays (120.2). I will measure to see if I can leave one hard drive bay in place and get a 120.3 underneath. I was just trying not to go beyond neccessary.

Thanks

A 120.3 is a SINGLE radiator that can accomodate 3 120mm fans.

Excellent illustration. Thanks, I will just have to move the hard drive cages, a 120.3 is the answer. A 120.2 fits without removal of both hard drive cages but if a 120.3 is needed I would rather not spend the money, time and effort to end up with less than adequate cooling. By the way I have seen a 120.4 in the bottom of a Silverstone J107

Thanks to all for the imput.

PA120.4 doesn't exist. You must mean a GTX480 and yes I believe massaville has one in his TJ07.
