First of all, Happy Holidays to everyone on the forums

Ok...

I've got some water cooling setup to and I need your advice:

I have a nice new P4 RBX from Danger Den (It was a gift, I swear! I had no choice!), along with a Maze4 GPU block, Z-Chip, an Ehiem 1250, a BIX radiator, and a Bayres. (someone did their shopping on www.dangerden.com

)

Option 1 :
pump -> RBX -> Y adapter to combine flow -> GPU -> chipset -> res -> radiator -> pump

Option 2 :
pump -> RBX -> split dual outputs, one to chipset, one to GPU -> GPU outlet and chipset outlet to separate intakes on bayres -> radiator -> pump

Right now, I am inclined to try #2 because it seems more efficient, and i would not have to use a Y splitter and tarnish the lovely view of the system (the bayres would act as a Y split and have a single output).

Would there be any pure cooling advantage to either one of these setups

I'm open to any comments or suggestions you all have.

Thanks!
