My next major upgrade (which I've been working on for nearly four months now, thanks to my limited financial resources) involves using the dreaded DDCs, which have rpm sensors, so I haven't looked much into flow meters, as they have very little use to me.

The flow meter I've linked is not that much of a flow killer (like adding an extra MCW60 to your loop if your flow is 1.5 - 2 GPM, you can find the pressure drop curves in the linked .pdf).

However, is £45+VAT, plus the fittings (around £5 for two, unless you can source them "cheapo" somewhere that's not Cole-Parmer, Tom Parker of WSP) and you have to "make your own cable". You'll have to decide how much in terms of restriction and money is your "peace of mind" worth.
I’m gong to do some research on flowmeters to see whether it’s going to be viable for me.

I may buy some and do some tests. Because I don’t like the idea of frying £720 worth of Graphic cards if the D5 packs in.
