A few questions ; Adding a GPU into current loop

[CRISPY_SKIN]

So after watching copious amounts of Youtube videos, I've recently rigged up a custom CPU loop, including the motherboard.. now I've gotten the itch to add in a GPU.

 

Are there any downsides to this? I assume my CPU temps will rise significantly, thanks to the GPU?

Currently I am using a "monsoon dual 5.25 bay res" with a D5 pump.
I've noticed the reservoir has extra ports to use..so by using said ports to connect the GPU, am I creating a new loop? or will the water temps still be high?

It's still part of the same loop so the water will increase slightly in temps to carry the heat away. I would just add it in series to the loop, just make sure to have enough rad space, ideally 120mm per component and more for silence to run fans at lower RPM's.

280 up top pushing, and I guess another in the front extracting? If not a 240?

I'd personally add in another 240mm to the front as intake, you could have it as exhaust but that will make it all negative pressure which is a pain mainly for dust. The extra 240mm will give you more than enough cooling at that point.
