I know flow rate is important, I did not intend to imply that slower flow rates equal better performance. I may not know scientific data about watercooling, but I'm not /that/ naive.

But adding more passes does not cause the water to stay in the radiator longer. Think about it and you'll see why.

What do you mean by turbulators?

Something to mix up the water as it passes through. Improves performance somewhat.

What kinds of cooling performance difference would I see in delivering the hot CPU water to the NB, and subsequently the GPU?

Hot is a relative term here. You're looking at about one degree difference between the hottest and coolest parts of your loop with 1/2 tube and dual pumps most likely. Water holds a LOT of energy without getting much warmer.
