mcr220 and 2 gt's

[disruptfam]

Can a mcr220/ yates med handle 2 gt's heat?

is there much point to putting these on water? I've read doesn't help overclocking unless v modding.

cheers

I have 2 8800GTX's on a loop with a single MCR220 and they stay sub 50 degrees. In the same loop is a X3210 quadcore at 3.2GHZ, and the 680i chipset, with another MCR220. My temps are awesome.

so your saying i'm good to go with a mcr220 and 2 gt's?

Yeah dude, totaly. Videocards put out way less heat than todays CPU's. You have nothing to worry about. A single rad would handle those GT's

Did you really just say that?

[biglipzit]

Yeah i had to read that twice also!

I mean, in a performance rig. How much power does a 8800GT draw? Im going to hazzard a guess, somewhere around or less than 150W. Now, a Q6600, overclocked to 3.6GHZ on average 1.45V. I'm going to guess around 200W. Therefore, more. Now, a single RAD would be pushing a Overclocked Q6600, YES, but I fully believe dual GT's in a lone loop should be FINE. I have no proof, and am just making uneducated guesses, so please, DO Prove me wrong. I am always glad to learn

i'm talking about heat output not wattage drawn.how much does a single put out...

IN computer heat output IS THE SAME THING as power consumed. All electrical energy consumed is converted to heat somewhere on the board.
