Hi Again.
I was reading the little "Water Cooling Q & A" and the Series Parallel section made little sense.
When in series the water block at the end of the line gets shafted... all the heat from the previous elements have already been introduced.
If you have a decent pump it seems like parallel operation would be the best option, hands down.
A parallel configuration should lower resistance of the setup (more water should flow from the pump... and possibly through each water block) But the biggest benefit would seem to be that each waterblock has the same tempurature water entering them.
So here is a Poll.... who uses series and who uses parallel?
