This is probably a dumb question, but I really don't know much about custom cooling.

If you add a GPU to the loop using the disconnects, aren't you either (a) pushing coolant heated by the GPU to the CPU, or (b) pushing coolant heated by the CPU to the GPU depending on how the coolant flows? Doesn't that seem counterproductive?

@C4S2K3, Yes, but due to physics the fluid stays a *similar* temperature throughout the loop giving you (yes higher temps) but not 90+ degree temps on your GPU after the fluid flows through your CPU(or whatever order it is)

C4S2K3 - According to JayzTwoCents, the temperature evens out in the entire loop, so it doesn't make a difference. What matters more is the size and number of radiators in the loop.

Interesting that the new 140mm based units would switch to an SPC pump where the older 120mm based units had DDC 3.1 pumps.

 

[c4s2k3]

Yeah, that makes sense now. I appreciate the explanation!

Nice, Its great to see this. The managed to make progress but bumping up the size. I can see this with a prefilled GPU block and have a REAL AIO loop.

Your second device will be a little bit warmer, and it will depend on flow rate and heat input from the upstream device.

So could one combine multiples of these to form a Semi-custom system loop?

1 AIO in top of case that leads to CPU block, then leads from CPU Block to GPU Block, then from GPU block into another AIO radiator in the front of the case and then loops back to the top radiator?

 

[Au_equus]

how about adding prefilled radiators or CPC QDCs to increase cooling capacity?

These are great. Several configurations are possible. There are threads dedicated to these babies. EK Predator owner fan club threads.
