Meanwhile you aren't depriving your CPU of any flow.
Thnaks for reply redleader.

Quick question:
Which way would facilitate highest flow through cpu block.
1) All inline with 3/8 id tubing until it gets to the small blocks(that use 1/4 id tubing).

2) Split after radiator one with 3/8 id for cpu and going back into res independently of the other split. The other split getting reduced down to 1/4 id then going through nb/gpu then returning to res independently.

Any other opinions or thoughts?

Thanks
