Hello, im planning a water cooled build and was wondering if people had some advice, Im going to liquid cool the motherboard , cpu and graphics cards (Sli GTX 780's)

M/B - Asus Rampage IV Extreme
CPU - i7 4930K
RAM - GSkill 32GB (4x8G) 2400MHz Ripjaws Z
GPU - EVGA S/C GTX 780 (in Sli)
PSU - Corsair AX1200
Case - Phanteks Enthoo Primo

Would like decent overclocks all-round, Is it better to run 2 loops 1 for the M/B & CPU and 1 for the GPU's or one big loop for everything. I can change the case if need be. I was thinking of running 2x XSPC AX480 rads and a dual pump will this be ok or am I heading down the wrong path... :)

Also will this waterblock be alright or should I spend more on a better one, As usual any help is appreciated.

Solution
Two separate loops would be preferable because the amount of heat produced by the CPU is different from the amount of heat produced by the Graphics card(s). And, you can control the pump speeds separately as the situation demands.
