Hi All,

Thanks for the replies!
So, the pumps should go in series.

How about the water blocks? series or paralel?
If I would setup:
water pump, split in 2, radiators, combine 2, water pump, reservoir, from reservoir a 4 split (so in the reservoir 1 hole in, 4 holes out)
go simultanesly to the CPU, North bridge, GPU and Hard disks.
(flow gets devided to 50, 15, 25, and 10%, so all items get the flow they need compared to the heat they produce)

then combined to one again (reservoir, 4 holes in, one out) and to the water pump.

on this way I should get the best flow. Right?
Will the extra flow (should go up by 30% compared to a setup where all is in one row) compensate for the loss of pressure?
