I was wondering if my pump MCP355 will be able to push the following:
1- 3 RADs Swiftech MCR-420, 320 and 220
2- 2 GPU AquaGrafx (GTX480) Water Blocks
3- CPU Heat Killer 3.0 Water Block
4- Swiftech North Bridge Cooler for the RIIE

i bet you will get decent temperature or flow with all of these in one loop ,I would make two separate loops each with MCP355 with an EK top(maybe get DDC3.25) and put the CPU,Motherboard on a loop with the 320 and the 220 and put the 2 gtx 480 on the other loop with the 420

@ blaxtr3m3: Why the three different rads?? Are they assoiciated with specific components or just placed where they will fit?
@ seeka12: Sadly your sig is all so true and makes me wonder what we they are teaching in out schools.

Circles SucQ!
If your annoyed by sigs telling you to put things in your sig, then put this in your sig
Bribery won't work on me...just say NO to AT!!!
aha thanks for clarifying it ,Actually this fact pisses me off because come one guys meaning that you are from the middle east doesn't mean you have no forms of Technology and actually the problem that the Americans faces toward the middle east and especially Egypt IMO is that they are taught that we have only monuments and desert and we ride camels(Actually i have never rode a camel )

Blaxtr3m3, I think the MCP355 should be able to handle that, although I wouldn't expect a high flowrate.
if your going to put that much money into it, one more pump cant be too horrible of an investment

Actually 2 mcp355 with/without EK or XSPC top would definitely be better than one mcp655

It'll handle it fine. Im using one less rad than you but with an EK DCP 4.0 pump which has less head pressure than the 355 and have no problems whatsoever.
Recommend parallel flow for your graphics blocks to reduce flow resistance.
Pic of it in practice, used 2 x tfc variable sli fittings to join the 2 blocks.

I am about to set up a very similar setup and I really want to go with one giant loop. I am going to have a i7 and 2 GTX 480s and was originally going to go with a 480 and a 240 radiator with (2) DDC-3.25 pumps with a EK Dual top block. I'm thinking about adding a 360 radiator on the back of my case.
If I were you, I'd get another pump if you plan on doing all that in 1 giant loop. With the money you've already invested in the hardware, buying another pump won't be that bad.
I temporarily ran 5970+5870+mb+980x on 1 pa120.3 and a mcp355. Temps were much better than expected and would have been fine for 24/7 as long as I wasn't going for very large overclocks (4ish ghz cpu and 1ghz per gpu was doable).
slowpoke:
mm ascension
gigabyte x58a-ud7
980x@4.4ghz (29x152) 1.392 vcore 24/7
corsair dominator gt 6gb 1824mhz 7-7-7-19
2xEVGA GTX TITAN
os: Crucial C300 256GB 3R0 on Intel ICH10R
storage: samsung 2tb f3
cooling:
loop1: mcp350>pa120.4>ek supreme hf
loop2: mcp355>2xpa120.3>>ek nb/sb
22x scythe s-flex "F"
ok then, I will go with another mcp355 and join them together with the xspc acrilic top.

that's a good choice however if you can go with the EK dual top it would be a better idea as it is made of a better quality than the XSPC acrylic top http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...ducts_id=27149

I don't think so. It's been proven numerous times that higher flowrate does not give you any substantial gains.
Another thing I was wondering, what's the benefit of two loops? One loop gives you equal heat distribution across rads. And unless your CPU is at a brink of instability (as in 2-3 degrees more would give you crashes) or you're going for WR low temps, I don't see any benefit to more than one loop...
My rig:
CPU: Q9450, stock volt, 3.2GHz
Mobo: DFI LP LT X48
RAM: OCZ Flex XLC 6400 CL3
HD: 4xSamsung Spinpoint F1 1TB RAID 5
GFX: HD5870
Cooling: Laing DDC 3.2 XSPC Restop -> TFC 120 -> FuZion V1 -> MCW30 -> TFC 360 -> EK DFI UT MOSFET -> EK FC5870
I have the EK Dual top and it seems like a lot of extra work was put into it considering it's just a top. Tons of extra hardware and brackets to mount in the 5.25" bay. I have not seen or used the XPSP dual acrylic top in person, but it looks like more attention to detail was put into the EK versus XSPC. Plus, EK makes way more blocks than XSPC if that puts their engineering capabilities in perspective.
