Which came first the GPU Cooler or the CPU Cooler???

Since we don't have a watercooling forum yet this thread is going here for now. Anyways my question is weather to put my CPU cooler first or my GPU cooler first in my watercooling setup????Running an Exos and by first I mean the first to be cooled in the setup.

Should be the processor, this wil lcreate the most heat usually depending on graphics card. If its a FX (which I hope for you it isnt) they create a helkl of a lot of heat.

Definitely the CPU first. GPUs are not nearly as hot as CPUs (my tbird idling at 48C for example ).

The FX cards reach over 80*C

I think he means that GPU's arnt a sensitive to heat as CPUs are.

It was the same. I never really posted that much at the old site. I always visited to see what was up but never really posted. Since my browser had icrontic.com as a homepage I knew right away when it went down. I check now and again till it came up. Then I just kinda decided to start being a better member than I was last time. Kinda like a second chance I suppose...
