    I would just slpit the loops and use two radiators myself.
    Well i appreciate your input but that's not really what i asked about

    Edit: My two last replies sounded a bit pissy. It wasn't meant like that but english isn't my first language and sometime i come across a bit angry.

    Thanks for the explanation or I wouldn't have responded again :P, a D5 running through only 3 blocks and a radiator will work just fine if the blocks are appropriately chosen for low restriction. Adding a second dummy loop running from the same pump won't help you out any and will actually hurt your temps. Water will take the path of least resistance so it would flow 90% through your rad and 10% through your blocks (a guess).

    That's a good point. I didn't really think about that but it's actually quite logical. Guess that pretty much settles it

    A little side question: Say i were to run one loop with, CPU 350, Gigabyte ex-58 NB block, a full gfx block (probably the koolance gtx 295 block) and the swiftech mcr320. Would that be allright to run in one loop or is that too restrictive?
