Not going to be anywhere near as effective as keeping them separate... heat dispersal is going to take DRASTIC hit... I would highly advice against it unless you're incredibly crammed for space (and even then, one could go outside of the case)

i was thinking that, only what if the left rad was first in loop, and the right one was 2nd in loop. so the hottest air wouldn't pass through both. or make the left one 2nd and teh right the 3rd so the first/hottest rad wouldn't even near the other 2

Yeah it just wouldn't be as efficient or smart temps-wise as keeping them seperate.

To put it simply...

You would be cooling off the second rad with the exhaust from the first.

Nothing in that idea makes sense unless you really just don't want that much cooling.

Split em up, radiators need their personal space too.

yes i know, but this is WAY overkill water cooling. the 3rd rad(show on right) will be the exhaust into the 2nd rad (on left). thats to say, it will be the 3rd MCR320 in a loop consisting of 3xMCR320'a, 2x mcp355's w/petras tops, dteck fuzion v2 w/quad plate, mcw30 on NB.

If its for a cpu and a NB.. you do not need all that. You could use it..but that setup is awful counterproductive.

*Get a better Radiator..then you only need one!

stacking rads does not work

1. the airflow from the 1st will be warmer
2. the airflow will also be hindered rendering it virtually useless to the next rad.

water loop is as follows:

custom pvc res=>DDC1(9watt)w/xspc acrylic top=>
Black Ice Extreme GTX 360=>Apogee GT (bowed)=>
Dtek GFX 2=> res

yeah, airflow will be much better with two apart. that way, both get cool air instead of one getting the left over warm air from the first.
