Thats a bit like what i have. I have 2 seperate loops one uses 1/2"id tube and cools the cpu only where as the other cools everything else (nb,sb,mosfet,gfx etc.) and is 8mmid. They both have a seperate pump and rad but they share the same res. The idea being the cpu gets a nice highflowrate as theres not added resistance by other blocks.

The easyest way to do it is to go for totaly seperate systems. Im not 100% sure how using a common res will attualy effect matters. The 2 loops would share coolent and that would mean that the total heat energy would be 'pooled' so it would be more like running the differant componants in paralell than in a tyotaly differant loop. Cant see any problems there myself.
