Ok someone might have already thought of the idea but i havent found any. I was thinking since watercooling is basically pumping water with pumps through the radiators to cool it after it picks up heat from the processor, shouldnt it be better if you connect 2 radiator or heater core together so it cools the water even more? I am not a water cooler so I dont know if one is already enough, but shouldnt it be better if you have 2 radiators so the water could get more of a chance to cool before its recycled to the processor.

I am just guessing, but I suspect you would need one hell of a pump. Wouldn't the 2nd rad create too much resistance?

you would need a superstrong pump with tons of head to push through 2 dual rad's... and prolly 5/8" tubing so it doesn't bust from pressure.

if you have a decent pump Say a Mag5, it should handle it

Well one of the most problem is when using WC, is water absorb heat really fast but it can't remover heat fast enough from the radiator. That’s because of amount of water in the system is little. The more water you have in the system, the easier heat is removing from the water and the radiator. I suggest having a bigger water reserve, tubing and CPU and CPU water BLOCK. And your idea of having two radiator is good. But having a BIGGER water reserve TANK is better, cause you spread out the heat that way equals to lower temperature.
