hey everyone, trying to figure out which is my best solution for my hardware and case.

i'm trying to figure out how to make this all fit.
2x loops in a
HAF 932 case

hardware to be cooled:
------------------------
EVGA classified full water block (NB,SB,MOSFETS)
i7 920
4870x2
-------------
WC stuff
--------------
250 EK vertical res
EK dual bay res

------------------
2x mcp355 + XSPC tops
----------------------
120.3 black ice extreme 360 rad

2x 120.1 rad's (not sure which ones yet)


basically what my concern is with the CPU loop,
i have 2 120.1 rads place around the case.
they going to cut it for cooling it?

heres a pic of my new thought out plan.

The only way i see this working out as planned is with an external 120.2 instead of 2x internal 120.1's. Also, res before pump always, it just helps with the "natural" flow of water.

yeah that was my original idea, but i got no clue where to stick it. i was thinking maybe put the 120.2 perhaps against the HDD cage but not sure what direction to have the fans shooting the heat, either over the HDD's or over the system
