Your logic is a bit flawed there, me lad
The point is, it should work BETTER. We dont debate that it works.

It does work better! Much better! And it looks awesome! The pics dont give it justice with the blacklights in the dark, but it is nice! All my buddies say it's the coolest (pun) PC they've ever seen!
I got great OCs on my CPU and my VPU and my temps are sweet! 40-41C on a mobile XP OC'ed to 3.1Ghz at only 1.95 volts is pretty damn sweet from what i've read around here. And after looking around more, i found 401Mhz on a 9700 aint so bad either.
The point is that i don't agree with these narrow minded people who only accept that two pumps must run in series. people on every other forum i posted to replied with more constructive and informative input than anyone here. One of the best things i heard was "if one pump breaks, how is the water going to flow backwards through the Y?" makes sense to me!
I tested it today for shits and giggles. I unplugged pump while the other one ran. Guess what? Water still flowed throgh all my blocks! sounds like a great redundancy plan to me! maybe i do lose pressure or whatever, but when losing a pump, i would kinda expect that to happen. Point is it still ran great with only one pump. I had to underclock my PC down to 2.0 Ghz again, but it worked perfect.
I heard on the other forums that there are some really smart and nice people here, and not to discredit everyone, but i would like to add than none of us know everything. Please, in the future, try to be a little more considerate to others ideas and refrain from insulting peoples newly built systems which they put alot of planning, time, and money into.
Saying something like "your only heating the water" is childish and rude.
I can speak from my experience with my personal setup that pumps in paralell work just as good in terms of performance and redundancy as pumps in series.
Now i hope we can all just be friends.
