Water cooled setup

Do you genuinely like the ram sinks or was that a bad lounge joke?

[clocker]

No, I think they're very cool.
Literally.
No joke.

If you want 'em theyre yours man.

While you're on. I have a guy on Xtreme telling me that it's better to have a single loop with 2 pumps back to back, but that just doesn't make any sense to me. What kind of makes sense to me is: OK I have two seperate loops ATM with the res/pump top now if I cross the pump intake and creat an "infinity sign" where it is a single loop but it has a pump and a rad on opposite ends. Do you think it would work better that way or what?

Thanks, I could use them.

Huh?
Can you do a simple Paint diagram for simple ole me?
Infinity sign?
Two pumps?

My head hurts.

Sure no prob.


So Like I said there are two pumps and two separate water loops, but someone had said it would be better off putting both pumps "back to back" and it doesn't make sense to me at all. I wondered if you had ever heard of this?

[clocker]

Yeah, I've heard of it.
I'm a "simpler is better" advocate and if you're going to have dual loops (which is in itself a violation of that precept) then your way is how I'd do it.

[Detale]

Sorry if I'm being pleb, but my way=2 separate loops or the infinity idea? Also PM me you addy again I'll probably go to the post office today or tomorrow.

[clocker]

Two seperate loops.
PMed.

I CAN't believe I forgot to mention this!

So i was going for a water test last night. Everything was perfect, I was well rested, kids were asleep, no nagging wife. So I fill up one res and....wait for it.....A Mother fucking leak! Tighten a fitting you say? No The acrylic res is leaking from between two panels damnit! Now i would have to disconnect all four tubes (they don't come off easy at all and RMA the defective thing Or I could hit the spot with some phenoseal and be done with it. I can see exactly where it's coming from. Opinions?
