I don't think that the GPU would put out so much heat that it would "contaminate" the coolant for your CPU, plus it's going to the next RAD, so you shoul be good to go. Plus, I think that it will give you a little neater setup, and may even be cooler. The flow rate with that pump might be a problem, though. But maybe not. Just a thought. [/b][/quote]

Thanks. That's a great idea. I will try it this weekend and some other ways also. I want to get the best flow I can and still have a clean look. I have got alot of work to do. I worked on it last night. Got my pump wired in. I am going to put my new hardware together tonight to get everything up and running before I install in the WC rig. So when I fire up the first time. It will have ready to rock.

Saturday is all water flow testing and setup. I am trying to borrow a flow meter but if I can't I will just use the one gl flow test. Have yall tried timing for flow? (500gph is 8.3gpm is .14gbs.)
I used this to flow just the pump at one foot and got 450gph. Not to bad for a mag drive. Then I flowed the blocks at one foot and got about 164gph. Well hell got to work. That sucks. I think I am getting sick Boss. Need to go home. Cough,Cough!!
