Just redid the loop in my Cosmos S. Added a PA120.1 and switched to an Apogee GTZ from a GT.

just a couple of quick questions for you why only a 750 watt psu? and what did it look like before you redid it over?? No need for anything above a 750W unless a person is running dual X2 cards. (No need for anything above a good 620W for a single gpu) 
Here's the initial internal 320 loop... 
The big push for this one was to fit the lower rad, move the pump to the back wall, add a second fan up front, and locate the res top/center. (The whole build can be found here...... http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/ca ... mos-s.html ) |

Thanks for sharing the pics and info What PSU were you running? But yeah... if I were going to run 2 X2 cards I'd be looking for a good 1000W (or bigger) PSU. It's not always needed, but I don't like to push my PSUs more than 60 - 70% of their continuous rated specs. PSU quality has come a long way in the last year or two, but IMO, even the highest quality PSU will start doing funky stuff if you push them beyond that with any regularity. |

i am running a 750watt ocz and i just dont want to mess anything up especially the cards i dont want to be replacing them anytime soon thats why i took one card out to try and take a load off of the psu i just wish i had one now or so one that had one 1000 watts of larger i would buy it really fast |

TS Approved Thank you sir.
I'm quite happy with the way it turned out, however ambient temps are crazy high in my basement right now so I'm not really seeing any benefit to the upgrade.
