Go to solution Solved by Angusticlavii,

Go with the second loop easier to doo and very clean in comparison.

Unless you have a sexy-looking pump, I would do the top link/loop.

I would highly appreciate it :)

so your CPU is going to receive the scalding hot temps of your GPU before attempting a cool in either scenario?

A lot of people run cpu and gpu in a single setup like that. I'm sure you will be fine, look at most of the loops out there.

I don't have a custom loop, but if I did, I would hide as much ugly as possible.

I've seen a lot of people run it like that, JayzTwoCents for example said that it doesn't make a lot of difference when it comes to temps.

Well the pump isn't "ugly" but not very "sexy" either. It has a custom sleeved cable, so it has that going for it...

I think I'll build it with the pump visible and if it looks awful I'll change it EzPz.

I'll post the progress :)

#2 will look cleaner i think.  

The loop order won't matter unless you're using a really under-powered pump and then you'll be running into a lot of other issues too.  if you're using a d5 or ddc you'll be fine

#2 and a quality pump like stated. 

 

You won't notice a difference either way. Only pump and fan speeds will matter. But with that much radiator space it really won't matter.
