Should i watercool CPU,GPU,NB with 1 setup or 2 ?

[OTMOPO3OK]

HEY, I'm planning on watercooling CPU,GPU,Northbridge on my mobo...
I'd like to know can i run all these waterblocks in 1 line (setup) or should i make 2 different setups (2 pumps, radiators) for CPU and the other 1 for GPU and Northbridge...
BTW i'm gonna use very effficient radiator like heater core or maybe i'll cut out from the main radiator (big one in front of car).

I'm also considering using 72 watt pelt for GPU....
And is it worth using Pelt for CPU...i think NO it will eat too much power but will give not so much results (cos i heard i need two 172 watts pelts to cool T'Bird 1.4)...
Any suggestion are welkome..

I'd go with setup one with a powerful pump it should be fine as long as you have the right equipment keep that in mind.

thx i was thinking of setup 1 too, but wasn't sure...
And is it worth the trouble and power consumption to use pelts on CPU or GPU?

and one more thing i'm gonna use pump like 400-500gph is it worth it...should i get 300gph or even more like 700gph..

Roughly 400-500gph should do it. Going 700 would be too intense for the block and start moving around and kill the chip.

I've never heard of a too big pump making the block move and killing the chip. A bigger pump won't neccessarily give lower temps though. Bigger pumps put out more heat, and you get diminishing returns on water flow (at least with normal centrifugal pumps). At some point these equalise so that more pumping gives no better temps and even possibly worse. I would say 300 gph is more than adequate for a non-pelt system.
