Water Circuit Design

I was wondering which you think would be a better water circuit design. My Dad thinks #3 is better, but I'm not so sure. First is #1, then #2, and so on.

# 1 and 2 are identical, and #3 is the same, just in differnt areas...

the best would be to go from rez to pump to rad to cpu to splitter to gpu/nb then back together to the rez.

get what I mean?

Thats definately the way to go.

PUMP - RAD - CPU --GPU --- Return
............................\--NB---/

Question

I always figured #2 and #3 were better, as in those the CPU, GPU, and NB each get fresh water from the radiator, once it comes from the pump of course. But I never see those used, only #1. Why would I want to have hot water from the CPU go over the GPU? Should I assume 317GPH is enough that it wouldn't make any difference?

You wont get anywhere near 317gph....

You allways want the highest flow possible through the waterblock.

Plus the more flow you have through the CPU block the less temperature increase there will be in the water, the water will only be 0.5*c hotter coming out of the CPU at most, so you wont notice the increase on GPU and NB.

You will however notice a temperature hit if you halve the flowrate through the CPU block, as you may do with your paralell setups above.

Flow through the GPU and NB dosent matter as much so you can run them paralell and maximise the flow through the CPU.

I realize it would be much less then 317GPH, probably closer to 150GPH. Those are some good arguments, I never really thought about that too much, I suppose. Are you saying put a Y in the line and run it to the GPU and NB the same time like the following diagram?
