heres the pic, as a jpg, that looks pretty good, maby just go with the rads like that, but make them come together before the cpu and go inline for the blocks...

I want to put a T before the cpu block because I didnt want the water flow to slow done because of the gpu and chipset blocks.
Also I might be puting a pelt on all the blocks in due time so I dont wont flow rate to be a problem.
Also everyone has been saying that if you have 2 rads you should go in series so thats what I did.
edit: thanks maskedgeek for puting up the pic, Im no good at webpages.

*parrallel yea thats rite, thats how it should be if your using 2, and i say you should use the 2 rads in parallel, but have the blocks in series...

I wanted the rads in series:(
so you dont think I can have thim both (blocks and rads) in series?
But .. But ...:D
You have the rads in parallel ??
And the gpu and NB in series ??
~~Walks into wall~~
Looks like a nice path to me !!

bump
if anyone is doing the 2 rad 3 block thing please tell me how you set it up
from what I hear you want the rads in series so that the water will stay longer in the radiators, thin in the blocks.

lol basicly you can think of it as that, or some other things... i dont know anymore that was a sleep ago....
but yea i say you do it like this
-edit- the reason i stick the chipset block after the cpu, is that the setup will be more clean... it isnt gonna add noticeable heat at all...

ok now Im confused, I thought I had the rads in series in the diagram.
can someone show the difference between series and parrallel pls?
EDIT: nevermind I just read this (http://www.overclockers.com/tips915/) artical again and it looks like I just had parallet and series mixed up.
no worries man ...
Im the bonehead that was ready to put 200 Lbs of clamping pressure on my XP :D
When you read a few million articles on water cooling .. the mind plays tricks !!!
I read about 200 Lbs pressure on a article on glueing a pelt to a cold plate .. and it just stuck ...:beer:
