Hello to all! This is my first post here on the procooling forums. Some of you may know me as Saleen from the VR Forums. I have been running the following loop for the past year (MCP600->MCW5000->MCW50->Black Ice Ex II). I am now planning on upgrading. This is the loop I plan on building:

MCP350->MCW6000->MCW50->Black Ice Pro III (mounted via rad box outside the case)->reservior

My concern is that the Pro III is a four pass radiator and thus will put alot of strain on the pump. I'm aware of the fact that it has 13ft. of head but I still don't know that it has enough power to maintian adequate flow rates. If I have to I could put my old mcp600 in line between the mcw50 and the black ice pro III. Let me know what you think and thanks in advance.
