Default watercooling redesign questions/help

Ok..
I've got a couple questions...
currently i'm using
Swiftech mcw-5000a
swiftech mcw-50
danger den zchip NB cooler
Black Ice Extreme (fan mounted directly to it pulling out)
danger den rev 1 resevoir
ehiem 1060 (600gph)

(i've also got a kryotech unit attached to the cooling loop, but not currently using it..trying to figure out this problem first)
Ok, currently water temps with the fans pulling out are between 80-90F.
cpu @ 100F.
my friend believes that my pump is moving the water too fast, and so the rads never having enough time to cool it down..
thereby dumping the non-cooled water back into the loop.
Sound likely, plausible???
I know the rad isn't doing it's job properly, because if I use the kryotech..the temps are about the same...
any ideas or thoughts before I rip this all apart?
oh..also..i've got an old dual pump res, (two pumps inside a resevour) that I bought from overclockershideout.com several years ago..
I believe it to be two 65 gph pumps..
so say 130gph..if my current pump is moving too fast..would the 130gph pump be too slow?
thanks in advance
