Ok to use a D5 and modded MCP350 Serially?

[Wang]

Hi all, hope someone can help me think this through
I'm upgrading to a P5B-D/Conroe platform, replacing Dtek WhiteWater with Swifty Storm, and try to re-use the MCW-50 and 7/16" Masterclear, Dual HC.

I'm getting a D5 and hope to use it serially with my 1/2" modded 10w MCP350. I'm thinking it might work ok.. since in SystemCooling's restrictive DDC system results, the D5 was pretty close in performance!
When I get the D5/Storm in.. I'll try it, but which pump feeds which? I'm thinking the higher flowing D5 into the DDC.... what do y'all think the resulting max head will be? the Storm should like the increase!

Resevoire--->D5-->DDC--->Rad--->WW--->MCW50--->
(minus the D5, that's my loop order now)

The reason why I want to do this is... I'm buying a kit (for the Storm!) and the D5 comes with! and I didn't want to waste it.

So, feel free to give some constructive inputs!

Thanks.

See if you can reuse the mcw-50 first. If you have the 1/2" barb option you can reuse the mcw-50. If you are sticking it into the 3/8" plug it probably won't fit.

Doesn't matter which pump feeds what or the order they are in, they peform about the same. The mod DDC has PQ between 50Z and MCP655 but less heat dump. Most likely it will perform like results of dual MCP 600 cathar.

Notice he got only .5C or less with cascade and HE120.2 when using two mcp 600 over one. Just adding the pump I say you will see maybe 1C difference depending on the size of the RAD you have.

Sell the pump and invest in a larger RAD of GPU WB.

I hear the MCW-50 fits ATI's X1xxx series, anybody know if the AIW-X1900 have fit issues with said block? (build getting xpensive, need to save where I can)

I shove 3/8"IDx1/2"OD tubing into the In/Out ports of the MCW50 and slip 1/2"IDx3/4"OD tubing over it. (as in current set-up)

I believe it's a Bonneville HC with 2x120x38 San Ace's i'm getting, I hope it'll be sufficient. Yes I wanted an MCR320 for increased capacity... maybe for Xmas
I'm going to be OCing the X1900 and Conroe 6300 hard w/extra volts (within reason of course) so I may need the MCR320....?

I forgot the D5 has the potentiometer on the back, cool... I can prolly leave the D5 in the loop with the MCP350 and just fiddle.

Thanx.
