At start I want to say hello to all, and in front apologise for any language mistakes I may make, because it's not my native.
I'm wondering what possibly best watercooling system I can make from parts I've already got.
Swiftech H20-220 Edge hd and additional radiator from Swiftech H20-320. Total 5 x 120mm radiator.
So basically this: http://www.swiftech.com/H2O-x20-Edge-HD.aspx and this http://www.swiftech.com/H320.aspx
I want to make use of parallel connecting, which combo of MCRdrive and apogee hd is designed for. (1 outlet, 3 inlet in radiator, and opposite in cpu
block).
Hardware I want to cool is
i5-4690K oced to 4,6ghz
and 2 graphic cards, HD 7990 and HD 7970 running in crossfire
First diagram I've had in mind was that one http://i61.tinypic.com/66bytk.jpg
But Edge hd kit uses g1/4 1/2" hose barbs, and tubing 3/4" OD, 1/2" ID. (all could be dismounted)
and h20-320 got 3/8" hose barbs, and it couldn't be changed.
So my question to this diagram is: Would be any pressure complications (from pump going 1/2" tube) when I just use some adaptors from 1/2" to 3/8"?
Or it will be better to put entire system on 3/8" hose barbs and tubing?
Or better use this diagram: http://i58.tinypic.com/fuvy0x.jpg
All on 1/2" tubing, except CPU->320->MCR (3/8") flow line ?
And third idea http://i58.tinypic.com/2wrj6z6.jpg
Parallel GPU's using crossfire/sli bridges or T/Y connectors, and 320 used to cool outs from GPU's only.
best regards
PS. currently edge hd is mounted and cooling only cpu
