I do however agree fully, flow resistance in this place( water-cooling) is directly proportional to the mediums(water) velocity, there is no arguing over that one from me. It is in fact this annoying hurdle that steered me into trying to optimize block design for maximum turbulence, in stead of maximum flow. That way, the plumbing to and from the block will not be the bottle-neck, but rather the block.

Of course I am of the opinion that flow-rate not being used to generate turbulence, is flow-rate utterly wasted....
