SLI W/C Question.

I had been planning on splitting the line from the pump with a 'Y' fitting and then going separately to each block on my 7900's. Then, using another 'Y', bring them back together and into the Rad.
Now: This will involve using more tubing and turns out will be difficult to fit in the case I'm using.
Obviously, I'm doing this so as not to drag heated water from one block into the next but, how much difference does it really make?:confused:

I also got to thinking about the pressure drops and potentially detrimental flow rate fluctuations caused by 'turning one line into 2, then back into 1'.

What do you think?

do it in series, the water will be moving so fast that it will no effect it or very little.

my vote is series.

[dark bishop]

the preasure drop from the y will completely throw it off.

+1 for series

[hata28]

go for series....mine only +2 to 3 degree C difference in series...using the same pump/combo like your........
