I'm planning buying a new setup but i'm a little worried about whether a single pump will be able to handle everything i wanna put in the loop...

basically here's the components:

2x mcr120 radiators
d-tek fuzion (maybe an apogee gtx seeing as no-one has stock of the fuzion)
a swiftek mcw60 for a geforce 8800gtx or a Swiftech STEALTH GeForce 8800 vga block.

I'm getting 2 singles cause there isn't too much space in my cm830 stacker to mount a dual radiator properly. I can mount one at the bottom but only just...

I'm getting a alphacool ddc pump with the alphacool top preinstalled, going to be using the top inlet, do you guy think it will handle this setup okay or will i need two pumps? I really dont want to pay another $120 for another pump if one will be okay.

Try putting all the items into Martin's flow rate calculator:

fepple is right, try the calculator but I can already say you would be fine.

The pa 120.3 really dominates, It is truly a amazing radiator.

OMG wrong thread lol! Multiple windows FTW!

Are you comfortable with loud fans?

If not you will need more radiator.

Why not get the 3x120 swifty and hang it off the back with a radbox?

A single DDC 3.2 is adequate for a FuZion and a MCW60, but not enough for a FuZion and a Stealth. Anyway, I think a FuZion and a MCW60 is a good combination.

well, i don't want an external mount simply due to the fact that i might want to lug the case around a bit...

as for the mcw60, its $40 cheaper than the stealth and i don't know how long i'm gonna be keeping my gtx...

I've seen from one or two other case logs that i might be able to get a dual rad mounted at the bottom of the case, maybe even a triple...

as for fans planning on the yate loon medium speed thin fans...
