So, basically I'm doing a full new build next month hopefully and getting all my parts. However, a mix up has occured so I originally designed my loop for this waterblock:
However, what I received was this:
Now this has meant a re-design of my loop, however, it's actually meant I thought about it more... so my orginal design had:
PUMP > Radiator 1 > GPU > CPU > Radiator 2 > PUMP and so on...
However, when thinking about this waterblock design I received, it made me think... should I not be looking at:
PUMP > Radiator 1 > GPU > Radiator 2 > CPU > PUMP and so on...
That way I cool better? This is my first build BTW and pretty much got all the bits now although I seem to have bought 32mm rads and I wanted 27mm rads really as they will be slightly higher now than the port hols on this waterboard... so might send them back or will need plug adaptors to align.
I assume if cooling CPU and GPU, then you would want a radiator factor inbetween them or if not, you'd in my case be pumping warmed GPU water into a CPU without cooling it. As I'm typing this I';m actuallyt hinking this is a silly question and I'm right... but somehow typing it out makes you think about things more. Problem is, I don't get my case until fathers day so I can't even get the piping in etc at moment hahaha
