Food 2 waterblocks or just 1?

i was just wondering, would a watercooling setup cool better if it only had one waterblock to cool or there is no difference if it had a second block to cool?

i just ordered a koolance exos and purchased the vga cooler and the cpu cooler. the radeon 9800pro gets mighty hot and i am afraid that with the added heat of the radeon, the exos (actually any watercooling setup) might not be able to cool the cpu as well as if only the waterblock for the cpu was installed.

should i have the cpu block be the first to get water and then the vga or vice versa? suggestions please! thanks!

It would be cooler to have just one block. I took out my hard drive cooler beacause of that. I would recomend putting ur CPU first then ur vga so your CPU has the coolest water.

if you are afraid of addin too much heat to the water you can add a second radatior in line with your system http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/fro...nu_search.html

ok thanks a million. I am planning on getting two raptors and was worried about them over heating and i didnt know u could water cool them. Do you think the one that fits in the 5.25 or 3.5 in drie woudl be more efficient. Now that im adding this on im thinking i may need an extra radiator. I am planning on water cooling my AMD64 CPU my R9700Pro Graphics card and 2 36gb 10k RPM raptor hard drives. Is there any site that will help me in the process of setting something like this up and give me a basic understanding of where certain things should/have to go. thanks a million
