So i got all my parts for my water-cooling system. here are the parts:

Swiftech Apogee GTX w/copper top
2 x Swiftech MCP655 pumps
2 x D-Tek Fuzion GTX
Custom Reservoir
Thermochill PA.120.3

After checking out the design of the D-Tek Fuzion GTX block, I was baffled by the water block's flow design.

The inlet of the block is the bottom one in the pic, which means the water must travel around and around till it can't go around no more, and then to the center hole.

Well anyway, with my setup as listed above, do you think setup :

Pump-->Radiator-->CPU-->Pump-->GPU-->GPU-->Reservoir

Any suggestions would be great as I have never done GPU water cooling and 2 pumps.

I think you mean Fuzion GFX. And you can put the items in your loop how ever you want aslong as your res is before you pumps so you don't run them dry.

Id stay away from the GFX, if you want it in the same loop.

Rather go with the MCW60. Much much much less flow restrictive.

Despite the FuZion GFX design, where the water meanders around a bit in the top section, it's cooling is impressive. My setup: Pump » PA120.3 » CPU » GPU » Reservoir -- my 8800GTX idles at 42C, load is 46C (30C room temp). I was going to get the dremel out and remove that nozzle but Martin said there might be a .5C improvement assuming there is a huge flow-rate improvement.
