  1. Do you think my current pump will be enough for the following build: reservoir -> pump -> 480 -> 360 -> gpu -> gpu(parallel or serial) -> 120 -> mosfet -> cpu -> ram -> 480 I just found this so mounting the two pumps next to eachother won't be a problem. I was wondering if I can control my PWM controlled DDC pump with a 3-pin fan controller?
  2. Okay, so doing them in parallel is nonsense and gives no benefits at all, so serial it is. Can I go reservoir -> pump -> reservoir -> pump, do I must go reservoir -> reservoir -> pump -> pump. If I think about it, the first pump pushing coolant to the second reservoir in a closed system would automatically push the coolant to the second pump.
  3. I don't really care about draining or possible problems. I would like a system that performs good and has no problems. I would prefer the two pumps in single loop scenario, but I'd like to know if connecting the two pumps together with an Y adapter would have any issues.
  4. Hello there LinusTechTIpsForum! I already own a custom cooled pc, however I'm planning to do a few upgrades. My case will be a Corsair 900d, and my Motherboard will be Asus VIII Formula. As you might know, the Formula VIII has a preinstalled mosfet block by EK, that's why I chose it. I will have a 480 on top, 480 and 360 on bottom, 120 rear. I have two EK DDC pumps and reservoirs. I will be cooling my 6700K and two GTX 1080s or the new Titan Xs. I'm also planning to watercool my 4x8 Corasir Dominator Platinums. So my question is the following: Should I create a dual loop system, or connect the pumps in parallel and create a single loop? I have a really good looking idea about putting the reservoirs over the pumps, connecting the reservoirs together, and connecting the pumps together with an Y adapter. I certainly think it would look awesome, however I'm not sure if the pumps connected together that way would suffer any performance or lifetime issues. Also I'm not sure which size of tubing to choose, the 10/12 or 12/16. The 900d is a huge case, and I'm not sure if the 10/12 wouldn't look too tiny compared to everything else. I would like to hear your thoughts about this! Thanks, Gegi.
