Would it be possible to put 2 radiators in your water cooling rig's Flow? I don't have a water cooling rig yet but I just wondered if you could put one in circut right after the water is pumped out (to the CPU) and another after it is returning to the resivour? You would have to have a larger pump prob. but do you think that it would help? Just another wild though from the village idiot :)
P.S.~ Do you guys think I should just change my name to "THe Village Idiot"?

A more effective rad setup would probably be to have them as a parallel run, so after your pump and before you block you split via a T or Y into two flows, one through each rad. Then after the rads T or Y back together to the cpu. You get slower flow through the rads that way with less pressure drop than series rads.
as ButcherUK, and the article, suggested; in parallel is more effective
but with even moderately sized radiators, that's a bunch of cooling
got 2 of those 220W TECs ? <g>
be cool

Like I said, I don't have a water cooling set up yet. I am not very good with those articles and understanding them, but if I see something done, I can usually do it and come to understand it much more quickly. Thanks for the clarifcation!
