Ok, I have an idea for a new styled waterblock. Ive made a very lame display model, mostly so I can get it more physical to check out and test some. So, due to the way its made it will need to have an external line for the heater core. i.e. 2 pumps would be needed.
What I was wondering was what would the effects be to have a res, with dual pumps (1 for CPU cooling, the 2nd for the heater core) be?
I know the water would mix and circulate some of the warmer water back into the CPU pump. Which I can fix some of that issue with the way the res would be laid out internally. So that I am not to worried about.
Would it be better to have the dual pumps different?
Have the pump that is hooked to the heater core be a low GPH pump, and the one to the CPU be slightly higher.
The reason behind that is I was thinking with the lower GPH pump pushing water through the heater core it would have more time to cool water.
Then the higher, would be slightly faster and be able to put the water into the CPU in and out faster.
Thoughts? Did I make myself understandable? LoL
Once I start working on the CPU Block Ill get up some images, but this "model" is just way to .... generic to show. LoL
