Ok so i have a pump sizing question. Is there such a thing as too much pump in a loop? For instance, im looking to build a basic loop, cpu with a 360mm radiator simple. I want to go custom because of future expandability if i decide i want to put graphics cards under water, but for now just starting with that.
So EK has these kits, for their 360L kit they prepackaged this pump/res combo EK-DCP 2.2 X-RES incl. Pump
But lets say i want to do a D5 with a reservoir combo, would this be too much pump for the loop? I know the more things you put in a loop the stronger pump you will need to overcome the restriction to have adequate circulation but is there such a thing of the coolant circulating through too fast or since they have a speed adjuster on some models is this a moot point?
Thanks,
