Does this flowrate seem low for a D5 on setting 5?

Where is the pump in the system?
 

Also, why the lack of water?

I lowered the water level so you could see the flow. If you look at like :06 you can catch a glimpse. The pump is right below the res. Res-pump-240-240-SLI GPU in Series-140-cpu-420-res.

240 xspc ex and ex crossflow

420 xspc ex

xspc raystorm and 780ti blocks

What's in the loop? List parts

The main reason I ask is because even with all those rads, my temps still get into the 60's from a 22C ambient

The temp of the water or your cards or your CPU? The 780TI has a TDP of 250W, so thats 500Ws to dissipate, which is quite a lot. With my basic maths, and assuming 1200RPM fans and all 120mm radiators, you should be looking at a water temp of +13 over ambient, so 35C water temp. My R9 290 also has a tdp of 250W and I get up to 60C on that as well. Also flow rate won't effect temps in your loop, the liquid moves too fast to get warmer in one area before it moves on.

The cpu goes upwards of 65 after like a half hour of gaming, gpus hover around 60.
