custom water cooling
Hello,
I’m looking for your assistance.
I plan to purchase a custom water cooling system for my PC and also for my 980ti Strix SLI.
I came across this kit: https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-kit-x360.
Will this kit be sufficient?
Additionally, I need to buy two blocks for my GPUs.
What other components should I consider buying?
My case is a Corsair 760t.
Thanks.
I would consider adding another 240mm or 280mm radius, depending on your case, to ensure sufficient surface area for overclocking.
In summary, you'll need:
The two graphics card water blocks
A 240mm radius
Six fittings (same size as the kit)
And possibly additional fans—though you likely have enough already.
It would be a great choice to begin with, far superior to many options, and I believe this kit will eliminate any initial doubts!
The CPU water block is excellent, the pump works well, the 60mm radiator is nice, and the Vardar fans make it a solid selection.
You should verify that the 2 Full Coverage GPU water blocks are compatible with your Strix cards.
Will this be sufficient?
This depends on how you define "enough."
Are you wondering if it will work without overclocking?
That would be an ideal starting kit, far superior to many that begin with it, and I believe you’ll avoid any initial regrets!

You’re already aware you should get two Full Coverage GPU water blocks to match the Strix cards.
Will this cover everything?
Your question hinges on what you consider sufficient.
Are you checking if it’s enough on its own, or do you want to know if overclocking is necessary?
By asking about sufficiency, I’m wondering if there’s anything else required besides this kit.
If I also want to cool my GPUs effectively, I’ll just need two more blocks—would that be sufficient?
I’ve never assembled a custom build like this before.

We need a few additional fittings (two per new component) such as two for each GPU block, two for another RAD, two for another res, etc. You'll also require extra tubing and possibly one more 240 RAD. The standard guideline is 120mm of RAD space per part, plus an additional 120mm after each addition for safety. (For example, 1 CPU with 2 GPUs uses 480mm of RAD space: 120 + 240 + extra 120 for stability.) Would you like me to adjust the layout accordingly?
