Need help on loops?

[gurby]

AT the moment i have loads of WC components on one loop. But people said its affecting my temperature, so could you help me make 2 loops (focusing much more on cpu than mobo)

I have :
1 x 3 Fan radiator
2 x 2 Fan Radiator
1 x 1 Fan Radiator

1 x XSPC Pump

1 x 2 bay resovoir W/ Pump
1 x 1 bay resovoir W/ (less poweful pump)
1 x small box type resovoir

To cool my CPU and Mobo, I want extreme cooling on CPU rather than Mobo, help me out? :confused:

So you have a total of 8 fans? I wouldn't thought any order of CPU + MB would be fine, unless there's also some SLI graphics...

What radiators, fans, pumps and water blocks are you using exactly?

[gurby]

Radiators:
.Airplex pro 360 (inside case and only one fan attached, no space for others)
.XSPC RS240 Radiator ( 2 x fans)
.XSPC RS240 Radiator ( 2 x fans)
.XSPC RS120 Radiator ( 1 x fan)

Pump: XSPC Laing DDC-Pump 12V Ultra(18w)

Resovoirs:
.XSPC 750 Clear Bay Reservoir & Pump, Blue LED fits into x2 5.25" Bays (750 LPH)
.XSPC X2OPBAY 5.25" Bay Blue LED Reservoir inc 12v Pump (200LPH)
.Alpha cool compact resovoir

Im not sure what to put with the CPU and the MOBO, the compononets and then the order? E.G. Res1 - Rad 1 - Rad 2 - Pump - Res 1 or something?

what components are you wcing???
if your are "only" wcing your cpu+mobo you could do whit both in one loop verry well and have the 3X120 and 2X120 rad in there and would have less restriction but more then enough cooling :up:

in that case i would go 240->res->pump->360->cpu->mobo->and from beginning

Im just cooling my motherboard and CPU, here some images maybe it should make more sense:

ah the mozart tx... :P
what fans are you using on your rads??
why are you using a zalman block?? (i don't hear much about them so dunno of they are any good)
you could also choose to use the back 2 240 rads and have more space inside the case
anyway whatevver you do keep the hose as short as possible (better performance) and if you wanna "loose" a (few) rads take out the 120 and as a possible second or the 240 or the 360

Yeh the mozart tx, loads of space so I purposly tried to stuff and much stuff I could in the case! XD
I put the zalman on becuase I just had it lying round and used it, think it came with my brother reserator xt or something. And i want to keep ALL my rad :D
