My current victim is a lanboy. I want to keep everything inside of it. All 1/2 ID
CSP-MAG Pump
BIP 120.1
Swiftech Apogee
Swiftech Micro-res

Currently only cooling the cpu with this. I am contemplating running a 2nd exact loop but to my 7800GT SLi, and mounting the second rad on the rear fangrill.
While both my NV5' work very well, its the silence I am after. My question being, will the BIP be enough to keep them chilly?

My second question is, is the the Black Ice extreme that much better? As I can switch the rads to fit a thicker 120.1 upfront.
 
Stick with the Black Ice Pro. I also think you should run the cpu and gpu in a single loop when you decide to add the GPU. You can add the second radiator, and even a second pump if you think you need more power. But running it all in one loop will use less tubing and in a small cramped space with 1/2" tubes that can only be a good thing.
 
If your going to be running large tubes then by all means get a bigger more powerful pump and skip the dual loop. Be a lot cheaper too. :)
 
The water temperature will equalize it's self in a couple of minutes, so really, having a dual loop won't do you any good. Not to mention you need a lot more space to accomplish it well.
 
Since I already have one of these pumps, would is be worthy to run another in series when adding the 2 gpu blocks?
