well, there's your answer.


1st issue, you're pushing water through five block, a rad, and a res w/ one, not so great, pump.

2nd, and most important, your lines split. For all you know 90% of the flow could be going to the HDs rather than the CPU. If your homemade HD blocks have low resistance..... well, fluids tend to follow the path of least resistance. Use two pumps, or run the whole thing in series, starting with your CPU.
If there is a flow valve on the HD line, try closing it most of the way.. (don't burn up your vid card).

problem solved.
