If you increase velocity the pressure will decrease. The higher the velocity of the water the better the heat transfer coeficient will be but the increase in turbulance will result in a higher pressure loss through the block. So the balance would be between getting a good enough pressure from the block outlet so your radiator can work properly and getting the heat transfer in the waterblock. I dunno how to work this out, it'll probably take a couple of months with good cfd software.
The channel should probably be at least a couple of mm wider than the CPU die. Don't know for sure though it'll probably need some testing
