    Gentlepeeps,

    Currently running a dual loop with 2x480 rads in an Enthoo Primo case but due to new office development, I would need to reduce the size of the case to something like a Caselabs M8 still need to cool 4770k & GTX780Ti SLI so 2 x360 rads would be ok?

    Current temps are around the 30deg for the 4770k- overclocked to 4.2GHZ and 28 deg for the GTX780i cards.
    What would the increase of temps be approx. by reducing the 480s to 360 rads?

    I thang you muchley

    You probably won't see any change on the CPU and maybe 10 degrees max on the GPU. Probably not even that much with decent fans on the rad

    Now looking for a case that can hold dual 360 rads but is both compact and doesn't require much (ideally no) modding

    You'd probably be fine with a 240 and a 360. There are loads of mid tower cases which can hold that.

    you wan't see any changes.. only a bit on the gpu probably... if you have big reservoirs you should't have differences

    I highly doubt you'll see a difference, and if you do it would be minimal

    The difference would be minimal for sure.
