Don't despair. Remember that there is a finite amount of head available to a wb, and that the number is pretty low for "hobby pumps". Now, looking at the C/W vs head loss graph, it seems that the Atlantis should be a relatively "high flow" wb, so perhaps its performance in a complete system will be similar to more restrictive blocks with a hobby type pump. Whether this is a reasonable strategy to "the ultimate wc setup" I cannot say. In practical terms though it means no more than a few C; buy what you like but try to mate wb, pump, tubing, and rad as well as you can.
I hope that makes sense. I have a bad cold and have been in the lab messing with experiments all day so I am about braindead.
