Ok

I currently am water cooling this:
EK Full Cover X58 classified
I7 920 (Swiftech Apogee XTZ)
EK FC5870 FUll cover block

I got 1 XSPC RX 360 radiator, with Scythe Gentle typhoons, a D5 pump, and a bay reservoir from XSPC.

If I wanted to cool my ram, 3x 2Gb Dominators (thinking of the EK wb)

Would I need more rads for it?

I got the corsair 800D case, so I was thinking, I could add 1 single rad on the vent, and 1 single rad at the bottom (If I am not considering cutting out on the bottom)
EVGA X58 3x SLI Classified
Sapphire HD 5870
Corsair Dominator 1600MHz 6Gb
Corsair HX 1000W
Corsair Obsidian 800D
LG LED w2486L 24" 2ms,1mill:1
Swiftech custom liquid cooling
Corsair GT 120GB

What kind of cooling you want, for cpu minimum dual rad, for single gpu the same.

try running them on the 360 and see if you like your temps, if not then you need to go dual loop, I like to go dual loop period.

forget putting ram on LC.

As I said I already got an XSPC RX 360 radiator in the top.
If I added another dual rad in the bottom, would it be wiser to have them in seperate loops or in same loop?

Separate loops will have better temps.
