If you deduct for voltage regulators, ram and everything else, 50 watts should be a safe high estimate at the gpu. Also, in a system with a mcp600 and double rad, the flow rate difference should be alot less than your estimates.

My personal experience with a mcw50 showed no loss going from 1.5 to .75 gpm using atitool to overclock with on a 9800
