    Money isn't an issue.
    I want to buy the best stuff for my setup, so I don't have to upgrade in future.

    @ Slim_Shady, I wasn't planning using 1 rad, but 2 in the loop, with an Eheim 1250. (1200 l/h should do the trick or not?)

    And then this loop:
    Res - Pump - Rad1 - CPU - Mosfet1 - Mosfet2 - NB - Rad2 - SB - VGA1 - VGA2

    What do you think about that?

    If money is not an issue, you ought to do three loops:

    (1) Res -> Pump -> Pump -> PA120.3 -> Cpu -> Res
    (2) Res -> Pump -> Pump -> PA120.3 - Gpu -> Gpu -> Res
    (3) Res -> Pump -> Rad -> NB -> SB -> Mosfets -> Res


    You need to look at the 18W version of this pump. Place two in series for extra head pressure and superb flow.

    That Eheim pump is a weakling that will not do.

    Alternatively, this is another pump to consider:

    If you really want the best, I would highly recommend the Iwaki RD-30

    But you would need a 24V power supply.

    Not!

    You want more head pressure than 2M. Both Laing pumps (DDC and D5) are smaller and more powerful than the 1250, and they run off 12V DC. Yes, it's true they lack the sheer LPH of the Eheim, but that isn't what''s important.
    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!!!

    I wouldn't use the Eheim then. Consider 2 DDC w/ Petra's top instead.

    But consider this as well. It will be moot point to do the second loop since you will have all of the parts except for a second reservoir. You can try leaving them all in a single loop, and if that doesn't work just add a reservoir and split the loops up.

    1-those laings are the best until they stop working as we ve seen more than once here huh??

    2-there was some sorta trick with the RD 30 and the RD 20 alex said having to do with the heat the pump introduced to the cycle and the voltage the pump was used. Can some one remind me of that?

    Optimum is at RD30 @ 18V or RD20 @ 24V. About the same pressure and flow. RD30 @ 24V is supposed to dump a level of heat that makes it inefficient.
