    Would it be possible to use one of these to cool BOTH of my CPUs? Ie joining the two loops with Y-piece into chiller then perhaps reservoir then Y-tube to divide into separate circuits. I have a DDC ultra (600LPH head 4,7m) in the Q6600 loop and a D5 (1200LPH head 3,7m) in my E6600 loop.

    Problem with this might be different flow rate and also of course different resistance in each circuit meaning water goes route of least resistance meaning mediocre/less flow in one loop. Is it feasible though? Any comments on this (without too many inflammatory statements )? Perhaps running an Eheim 1250 after the Y-joining of the 2 circuits to boost flow rate into the chiller? Mind all this is just on the idea level - need more info first.

    And why would I need a reservoir (at all) ?
    once again you couldnt get the flow rate required for this system.

    1200-3000l/h = 1200/60 = 20 lpm / 3.79lpm/gpm = 5.2gpm

    The average h2o system with cpu + gpu + radiator, which should be less restrictive then this unit, will pull about 1-1.5gpm on martin's calculator. There is no way in hell a D5 will pull 1200l/h with blocks and incline. I think you missed me telling you this about 4 times already.

    Your blocks will mess up your flow.

    You still need an additional 3.5gpm! where you going to get that flow?

    There is no single pump minus aquarium fish hobby pumps, or my rediculously expensive RD-30 that could do this. You dont have enough flowrate to meet the requirements of this system.

    Its my fault.. and no im not sorry about it either.
