I put together a new (to me) system and I am debating on watercooling my 7850 and possibly adding a second one for Xfire. It sounds silly, but I hate having a board with all the open PCI express slots. Besides I would like the system to last me a 2-3 years while running games at high settings. I currently only have a single 1200p monitor, but that might change soon. My main concern is the fact that I will have non reference cards which means I will use my MCW60s leaving me with an alternate means to cool vram and other pcb parts. I am not looking to shoot the moon on overclocks, my like have a good looking system that is relatively quiet and performs well. I have read that with good airflow I would be fine just cooling the GPU alone. I could use some stick on heatsinks but I am afraid they might fall off once they heat up.
Thanks for the input.
I am using the parts I have already for cooling:
MCR320
MCR240
Dual D5s on lower speed for redundacy
HK 3.0 LT
2 MCW60s
Med YLs unless I find something better.
