If I wanted to do this could I just run them in a chain like have the water go through the video card then the cpu or do I have to run 2 seperate things. I am a water cooling kit for christmas from girlfriend and I want to plan ahead so I can get everything at once and get it all done. Im so sick of the Delta 7k fan I cant wait.

you can run them inline, but make sure to put the "fresh" water from the resevoir coming into the CPU first, then onto the video card.

OK thanks.
That is what I did, But the fan on GPU doesn´t it cool the RAM too?
so I removed it.

run them with a t-bit so the water splits evenly to the graphics card and cpu as it does not mix hot water

Yup, a T-Junction!
A Y will work better than a T, less flow restriction. The problem with cooling a GPU and your CPU in the same H2O system is your water temps will go up and so will your CPU temps. IMHO, use water where it's needed on the hot CPU only. Air can cool a GPU without any problems.
