Custom loop layout question

Go to solution Solved by DirkW,

Let's put it that way: you should only ever connect identical blocks in parallel. So 2-4 GPUs (with the same block): fine. Completely separate loop or the parallel GPUs put in serial with the CPU in one loop: both ok. But GPU with CPU in parallel... just don't. Water will follow the path of least resistance, resulting in one of the (very different) blocks not getting enough flow. So, OP, no U-turn from CPU back through the GPUs other side.

Thanks everyone for all your input.

After putting together a quick test loop and looking it over in person along with the advise given I have released that it really won't work. I'm now currently in the planning of a nice clean normal loop.

Thanks again.
