    Hi all,
    I'm in the preliminary stages of planning my liquid-cooling loop for Project Poseidon and wondering if I can get away with a single 140mm radiator for my HIS 6970 - anyone know the heat output in watts.

    I have the IceQ Turbo 2GB version if it makes any difference, and I don't plan to overclock :)

    Cheers,
    Craig

    Yes should be fine. The 6970 is a reasonably warm card, mine used to max out about 85C, but a single 140 rad will be ok for just that card.
