I really dig that box for the cooling loop. Very nice work. The MCW5000 blocks are apparently pretty low restriction and so I am not sure fiddling with the 90s would gain you any cooling performance. I have a smaller Lagnua pump (the ~350GPH statuary pump I modded to run inline) and it has been a nice unit.
That bomb is exactly what I would not use, shoot off head to 1,7m, imagine what is that value with the pressure drop caused by the reduction of the exit diameter, the fall in the flow rate is brutal

Uniting with the characteristics of 3 blocks, the mcw5000 that has low thermal efficiency at the low flow rates, the efficiency of the system should not be very good.

it is something that I cannot foresee correctly, but his final flow rate should be below 4 lpm after the cpu waterblock

and that is not good for a mcw5000

one provides that I would take, it would be to modify the impeler to reduce the flow rate and to increase the shooot off head, reducing the diameter of the rotor
