I would NOT y off the GPU lines..Go with series..That will maintain a higher flow rate which will lower temps.
I am not as smart as some and I have a question about that review concerning this comment.
"I’d like to note, too, that it’s harder to remove 250 watts of power from one source than a total of 250 watts from four components, so the efficiency of the Swiftech H20-120-P is going to be even a little bit higher in a real environment."
I disagree with that comment.1 source will reduce tubin,Bends,restrictions,and over all should be cooled more efficiently then having 3Blocks,and all the associated connections and tubing.
It is my understanding 250 watts is 250 watts no matter how it is added to the loop and for that reason I disagree with this mans results in that test.And seriously would be leary using such a small surfaced area rad to cool 200 plus watts of GPU related heat...I also want to add a little of my own experence to avoid a debate or war.I cooled Dual MP Processors Overclocked like mad putting 224 watts of heat into my loop at load.I used the MCP600 Free flowing Sprial blocks and a Bonniville heater core with 2 103cfm 120mm fans on a shroud.I would reach 43 to 45c temps.
I again do not know it all , I had twice the rad surface area and a lot more powerful fan set up..I would have been scared to install eather of those rads in my loop personally just because water cooling massivly depends on air cooling to remove the heat and nothing can beat surface area so long as the flow is keept to a decient level.
