in my next build i plan on having the 7900gtx running in SLI. i also have a zalman resurator one plus and my question is wheather i should watercool the second card or jus leave the stock fan on. alot of people say that the fan cools the card pretty good but the size of the fan makes worry about clutter and dust.

P.S i didnt no if i should put this in this forum or in water works

Problem with the Resurator One is as the water starts to get warm so do the other parts. It is not a always on WC system. I would say invest your money in to a differant WC system and do both cards.

i dont feel like investing in another water cooling system im happy with this one. im jus worried that the second card could overheat if i do add it to the system.
what if i purchase a radiator like this

and mount with this

i was thinking i could place the radiator in the line after the first video card and before the second.
