wattercooling question

[Disney]

I have :

Asetek WaterChill KT12-L20, CPU/VGA/Chip

maze2 3/8"
ehiem 1048

the question:

should I run with 2 pumps?

-ehiem - nova20 (serial)

- ehiem-
- nova20- (parallel)

if parallel, should I run the cpu with one, and gpu,nb with the other?

or just run with the ehiem and skip the extra mhz ?


and what cpu-block should I use? maze2 or the astek block?

and thnx in advance

I don't think you need to use both pumps... but if you do, either put them in parallel or run two completely separate loops. Putting them in series may put strain on both of them since they are two different pumps.

I read this http://www.overclockers.com/articles723/

and the "Measured gph" is almost the same...
maybee just test with both just for the fun

but think I will use only one pump...

No need for 2 pumps, they will only add heat to the loop. Also, which one is more powerful? Use the one that has the most head pressure.

It can be good for safety reasons though. Should one fail you have another going.
