    A single loop is a res-pump-rad-block. A dual loop is two fully seperate loops, two res, two pump, two rads, two blocks.


    Sometimes due to the amount of wattage needed dissipated and too many flow restrictive parts TWO loops is needed. See my sig below.

    CPU loop is it's own pump, res, block, rad.
    GPU loop is the same.
    The GPUs would make the CPU water warmer, thus worse CPU temps. So two loops was best for me. But one loop would of been fine, but I'd need BOTH rads due to my heatload.


    The one golden rule is res before pump, never ever run a pump dry.
