aduman Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hi! I'm planning to buy this kit. http://www.ekwb.com/shop/kits-cases/kits/ek-kit-l240.ht... I can't buy parts separately since they are not available in my country. (I am going to buy this kit from a foreign country.) It will be installed in a Corsair Obsidian 550D. Is it possible? If it is, how? Btw: I'm going to cool both my GPU and CPU. Is there any other thing I have to buy except this kit? Thanks. Sorry if I asked some noob questions.

peanutz94 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hi Aduman, your link is broke, but if it's the 240 version of that EK kit, yes it should fit fine. The 550D has native support for up to a 240 RAD . That was actually my first full loop. It's not a bad kit at all for what it is. Mine is still in use in my other system and it performs very well!

aduman Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hi! Thanks for the reply mate. I am really sorry for the broken link. Here is a working one: http://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-kit-l240.html Will there be enough space to place the motherboard in the case after the rad and fans are installed? I don't want to do any modding to the case and I want both the fans and radiator to be inside the case. (Mounted on top.) I'm going to upgrade my GTX 590 and get a GTX 780Ti. The card is not released yet and there is no waterblocks available. I just wanted to know if just a waterblock is enough with this kit to cool the GPU. Thank you so much. I know I'm asking a lot of questions but my only option is to buy this kit from a foreign country. So I only have one chance to order. Sorry for bad English. Btw: Is a 240mm radiator enough for cooling both GPU and the CPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Will there be enough space to place the motherboard in the case after the rad and fans are installed? Should be, but I'm not sure about a push pull set-up depending on the heat sinks on the MB. I'm going to upgrade my GTX 590 and get a GTX 780Ti. The card is not released yet and there is no waterblocks available. I just wanted to know if just a waterblock is enough with this kit to cool the GPU. I honestly cant say for sure with that kit one way or the other. I don't have anything but a CPU on it. Although it stays pretty cool anyway even under full load. So it may be just enough to add a gpu . All i can say is try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aduman Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Again, thanks for the reply. Another question: Is the 240 radiator included in the kit enough for cooling both the GPU and the CPU? CPU: i7 2600k GPU: GTX 780Ti (not released yet.) Motherboard: Gigabyte Z68AP-D3 rev 1.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aduman Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Btw the heat sinks on the motherboard are next to the I/O shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
