less flow is...less flow. Pressure DROP (refered to as "head") is related to flow...but you seem to be mixed up.

When you look at the point that needs the cooling the most, it's your CPU, so you want to cool that the best.
As you have cold water in your system, why not use it also for the rest, AFTER the cpu?

Your water temps will rise less than a degree after passing through your CPU waterblock. Seeing as a millileter of water takes a calorie to raise one degree C, and assuming 2 lpm of flow, you can deal with 140 watts of heat before you raise a single degree per pass. Order in the loop is insignificant, really.

Also the lifetime of your harddrive will double when they are watercooled.

If you just want to go for a total watercooled system, and you are not into overclocking, your CPU temps will rize about 5 to 10 degrees,

lol, how do you figure?
