Not when overclocking your gear. Or if you want it to run both cool and quiet... or simply like bling!

Once the system has been thoroughly checked, all three GPUs will be overclocked to 900/1300MHz and CPU will be overclocked to 3.8 or 4.0 GHz to keep up with graphics.

The 5970 likes to run some 65-70 degree C even with the Arctic Extreme air cooler - stock cooler saw it running +80 degree!

On water I expect everything stays well under 40 degree...

Here's how the loop runs btw. - radiator and pump located in external case (will show later):


The market for watercooling has never been bigger than it is today, some links to enjoy:
