Caeberos,

You are correct... they are in parallel.

I may have been mistaken about the block picking up more heat... not sure... I think I will put the old block back in with the fans in place and see if I get a lower temp. I want to let the block burn in for another day though to make sure it had "seated" properly.

Then I will switch back to the old one and verify the temp drop with the old block in parallel with the GPU.

I made a classic mistake in changing more than one thing at a time...

1. Changed the routing from series to parallel.

2. Changed the block from the old copper to the jet block.

3. Added the two 120mm fans just above the radiator.

No way to verify what did what without switching back to the old block. I might even remove the fans at first to see if the parallel plumbing helped anything with the old block.
