Water Loop Q

R

I am planning on have my loop as follows:

________cpu
Pump<_______> radiator - reservoir
______gfx card

(i had to use lines above b.c it removed spaces, so _ = a space)

i would like to use Spliters to split the tubes and bring it back together.
i will be using an ek full waterblock for my 9600gt and a dtek fusion for my cpu block
how would this work? would the flow be affected? would one thing be cooled better then the other? would the water for some reason only flow well through one side? is this more effiecent at cooling then having the lines go straight from my cpu to gfx card?

please criticize my planned set up and tell me all your thoughts, and if you link the splitting idea is a good idea!
 
your setup is paralell, and wouldnt work very well.

Because in a closed loop the path which is least restrictive will get more flow.

I would just recomend you serialing them, adding them one after another.

What cpu and GPU are you running?

And what is your rad?
 
cpu block is a dtek fuzion on a q66
gpu block is ek full block on 9600gt
rad is a PA120.2 wit 2 late yoons
pump is MCP655
res is a microres
 
You'll need more rad for decent cpu temps, a triple at least, a single with a double on a similar loop got loads on my quad around 45 c.
