    Dell Studio 7 no response

    But if it were the graphics wouldn't there still be some response from the machine trying to boot up like fans spinning or something with no response from the screen? Im getting literally nothing but the 3 blinking lights.

    Adding to the water cooling loop

    would my cpu be alright on a single 140/120 rad with another pump? and would the 240 rad at the top be able to keep two GPUs cool? or is the 240 to small?

    Adding to the water cooling loop

    What if i added another loop to the system? kept the CPU on the current loop but maybe changing to a smaller rad like a thick single 140 and adding another pump to the GPU's and running them to the 240 rad? would it just be a cluster of hose or would this be a better route to go?

    Adding to the water cooling loop

    you dont think even just GPU boards could be added? even with just one rad? i currently have a game running and has been running almost all day and its sitting comfortably at 22c this whole time.

    Radeon 6870 monitor help

    when you say not enough vram does that mean i wont have enough power to support 6 monitors? or power to support high resolution gaming in eyefinity? or neither. my last graphics card was a 9800gt that was pre installed on my system. im pretty oblivious to graphic cards.
