Now I'm an absolute noob when it comes to watercool. I've read what I can, and I've ordered up parts, but I haven't actually installed the loop yet.

I bought a XSPC kit that includes the 750 pump and reservoir. I'm going to install the parts that the kit came with, but I'm concerned that the pump will be underpowered in cooling a i7 920 and two GTX 580s through the RX360 radiator.

If this proves to be the case, can I just add another pump somewhere in the loop to boost flow, or do I have to make other considerations?

Thanks for the help.
 
Just get a new pump and remove the 750 pump. MCP355 or 655 would be sufficient.
 
Yeah Im not sure that pump is going to have suffecient head pressure to push through all those device.

As the users above have said the D5 (655) and the 355 should work fine. If you have the moolah get a MCP35X. It is probably one of the strongest pumps on the market. There are a lot out there so that is just a guess based on the tons of reviews I read before getting mine.
