Default Loop for 2 GPUs?

I was wondering what parts I should use for my first water cool build.

I have 2 6990s already with a block.
I was thinking running 2 360 Rads. If so what rads would be the best, and best in a medium price point. Also I don't want to spend a stack on fans either but want ones that are quite (I'll use a fan controller) and are good for their price.

Thanks

If you have a quick read of the stickies and hundreds of other threads and builds you'll get an idea...

55 degrees ? Thats pushing it mate (in terms of water cooling vs air). My gpu runs 19 idle and 34 load.

The amount of heat a GTX670 puts out is like a fart in a cyclone, so you're not comparing apples to apples.

2x 6990s will produce shitloads of heat so dont skimp on rad.
