Is 1 D5 Pump Enough?

[dbennett1027]

Right now I have a XSPC D5 Photon Res/Pump combo running a 420mm rad, 360mm rad, 1 2080ti block, and 1 1950x block with no problems. I just purchased a Obsidian 1000D case because I am tired of the airflow problems on my Thermaltake View 71. I plan on taking advantage of mini itx space in the 1000D and getting a 9900k w/ ASRock Z390 PHANTOM GAMING-ITX in there because lets face it I am not happy with the threadrippers gaming performance especially with the bottleneck on the 2080ti. So now on to the question, I plan on keeping everything watercooled except the GT1030 im putting with the threadripper which will become a server. So will the one D5 pump be enough for 2 CPU blocks, 1 GPU block and Im thinking of switching the radiators for 3 XSPC TX480's and possibly a 4th one or a TX240 on the rear of the case. I know that is probably overkill but I want to use all that 1000D space as much as possible. Also for more information the Current threadripper block is a XSPC Raystorm Neo and the GPU is a EVGA Hydro Copper, and for the 9900k I will most likely be sticking with XSPC for that as well. I know I could keep the 2 systems on different loops but really the threadripper will probably be underclocked and undervolted so it will be producing next to nothing in heat.

Yes it's more than enough.

Yea should be fine., u'd probably be surprised how much restriction you have to add into a loop for a single D5 not to be enough.

Yeah, I know the D5's are powerful but I know CPU blocks can be very restictive so I was concerned about there being two. Thank you for the quick answers and clarification.

Modern CPU blocks aren't that restrictive, so as others have said you should be fine.

For reference, my HEDT loop order is pump/res > graphics card blocks (2 parallel) > 480mm rad 1 > 480mm rad 2 > monoblock > back to pump

 

Single D5 does just fine.

Ran mine with 3 rads and 8 blocks. Worked fine. Even tried two pumps to compare.
