"The nice thing about these parts are they make an all internal water cooling kit, so there are no untidy things hanging out of your box. You can get a mild cooling setup with the 120 and a little more heat dissipation with the 220, but both are mounted in the same way. With large slow fans, Swiftech is claiming 40dBA with an overclocked quad core CPU and two 8800GTXs."
Uhhh...... how does a 220 handle an overclocked quad + 2 8800GTX?
This is enough to bring a MCR320 crying. Infact i recomend members to split the loop up because the 2 x 8800GTX will impact the CPU performance quite noticibly.
Andy i cant believe your not saying anything about this. You have the config and so do i which is required for a dual 8800GTX quad platform.
Scott you going to sit calmly thought this statement as well?
Just some numbers for reference.
An overclocked quad will put out around 200W of heat. A GTX each will put out about 210W of heat. x 2 = 420w + 200W = 620W of heat you need to get rid of.
There is no chance unless you live in hell and it froze over, that a poor 220 will handle this heat load. Gabe needs to have them fix this statement.
