So I will be doing an extreme build in a bit and I was wondering whether or not my pump is going to have enough head pressure to get the coolant in places. I have a bit overkill setup but the way it is going to work is I have 5 low profile radiators, 2 GPU, CPU, RAM and probably Motherboard waterblocks with a variety of angled fittings and acrylic tubing. So since this is a single loop I am aiming at low noise with all these rads so I believe it would be better if I could have 2 pumps running in the same loop giving more pressure. If that is a viable choice how would I go about doing it?
Dual pumps in single loop.

Sounds like a pretty extreme loop your going for. Would be something to see a build log for. Regarding dual-pumps, I'm using this setup myself for a single loop. I have an MCP35X2 (swiftech) setup. It's essential 2 MCP35X pumps connected in series via a dual-pump top. Plenty of extra pressure, more than I actually need, so I keep them slowed down to about 2200 RPM. I have 3 thick radiators, CPU block, 2 GPU blocks, and VRM block in my loop. Also using angled fittings, QDCs, ect. To be honest, when I'm changing fluid and leak testing, I can run 1 pump and still have plenty of pressure to move coolant with good circulation. I like having two though for redundancy and being able to lower the RPMs, power, noise, and heat output while having greater head pressure than a single pump.
Good luck and plan carefully. It can save you a lot of time and money.TRENDING THREADS
