1 pump or 2 pumps?

[Khris]

Hello Tech Fam,

 

Question (somewhat simple),

Is 1x EK-XTOP Revo D5 of these pumps strong enough to circulate water flow through a loop consisting of these products?: 

1. 1x CPU Block

2. 1x GPU Block

3. 2x Triple RAD

4. 2x 820ml Reservoir

 

 

This is a build in progress down the road and I'm just seeing what products would be best with other components. It's not going to be in a Computer case but a PC desk itself with hard-line tubing. Should I plan to include 2 pumps? Or just 1? Thanks in advanced.

A single pump would be more than enough.

Yes, I've got a single pump going through 2 GPU blocks, a 560mm rad, 280mm rad, and a 400-ish mL res and it's almost certainly got plenty of head pressure remaining

You guys are amazing. Thanks for the instant response. I shall be lurking around the forums a bit more often with many, many questions .

unless you're doing something special with outside rads or ultra long 50ft+ runs, a single pump is more than enough.
