To all the guys above:
I realise it's a small difference but my logic is this:
Your planning a water cooled system, why not do it the way that gets you every possible advantage even if that advantage is only 1c or .00001C..
Better is better right?
Same labor to build so get all you can.
Crunch with us, the XS WCG team
The XS WCG team needs your support.
A good project with good goals.
Come join us,get that warm fuzzy feeling that you've done something good for mankind.

even with all the fittings these days it cant be that akward
Hmmmmm, after the rad or not after the rad, that is the question!Now I would like to see testing to finally put this one to rest! This has been one of those things like negative and positive pressure in a case deals. People are going to continue to conflict unless there is absolute test results.

this is really predictable...after one hour the cpu has raised the water temp for both setups at the same temperature...Hmmmmm, after the rad or not after the rad, that is the question!
with good flow the water temp at any point of the loop wouldn't vary...
imagine less than 300ml(total liquid volume) for a normal setup(small res)...with a flow of 8lpm every 2.5xx seconds that 300ml would have gone thru the loop completely...
my assumption is that it would be the same for both setups
