Kudos on another inspiring job...
I will be using the 3 stage pump mod, after I finish polishing it up, and get the valves sorted, currently just using a boring old "standard" 2.5m head pond pump. All 3 blocks combined, since they are plumbed in paralell, don't stress the crap out of the pump like the single CPU clock did before, however they are still far more restrictive than "normal" water blocks, and a high pressure pump will still be prefered.

Tell us:

Ambient temp
Water temp
core temp
pumps
since my ambient temps vary so much during a daily cycle all I can give is a snap shot at this point in time (the reason why I normally just give cpu above water temps)

ambient 29 c
water temp 23.5 c (evaporative cooling remember)
core temp 32.5 c (usual disclaimer about differences between different mobo's ect)
currently just a standard 2800L/H 2.5m head pond pump (to be replaced by the 3 stage pump mod)

Are those hoses of the fuel line Kind? I’ve used that some time, are soft and cheap, but tend to develop a white layer in contact with water. It grows over time and deposit on the rest of the system. That could be a long term problem with your jets.
Allthough I did buy the hose as fuel hose, it looks and feels like normal silicone hose and have been using it on and off for over a year with out any problems, I will keep an eye out for it though.
