Is there any particular reason that you are going with a dual loop? There is no real performance benefit and it does cost quite a bit more. If you are doing it for aesthetics then it's all good. For fans, get 1850rpm gentle typhoons,...

Idle temps mean absolutely nothing and most likely this will not change them in the least. The only thing that has a significant impact on idle is your ambient temperature. If you want them lower, make your room colder. As for load...

Quote:Originally Posted by bakageta Not entirely true about the dual loops. 2 loops can be used to weigh your cooling in favor of one component, while a single loop splits everything essentially equally. It's not something most...

Wow it's not even a contest.

Quote:Originally Posted by michaelrw Ive got a similar situation as you. I have 2 separate loops. One loop goes: res>pump>240mm rad>GTX680 waterblocks>res The other loop goes: res>pump>360mm rad>CPU block>res I like having two...

Your ambient temps must be freezing!! How can you stand being in a room that is around 18C lol. As for your CPU variance, either you have uneven pressure, poor TIM application, or your CPU is just like that as someone else stated. The...

Unless you have a crazy restrictive build there is no reason to go with a dual pump setup. I would recommend a mcp35x or a mcp355 as both have excellent head pressure, small footprint, and long...

It depends how much rad you have to begin with and what your fans are running at, but in general its pretty hard to achieve a 25C delta. You would have to have minimal flow, a TON of heat and extremely inadequate rads. A single 360 for...
