Evening all Uk time, does anyone have pictures of dual pump water cooling loops? I would really like to see pics of dual pumps with 1 cpu only loops if possible. Plus, any guides or words to follow if I wanted to make a dual pump set up, I would like to build a dual pump with separate res or 2 lol with a 360 radiator all for one cpu.
Any Dual pump loops

You can just have them next to each other in the loop if you'd like.
Res above pump-> pump1->pump2>etc
Res above pump-> pump1->pump2>etc
I dont have much handy atm, but I have a dual pump setup running through a 9700X, 1080ti, and 2 560mm rads. I do not know what you need to know or why you want to go dual. For me, it was redundancy and the ability to run at lower rpms to keep things quieter. If a pump dies I am fine until I am able to slap in a spare. I am using the EKWB Revo Dual D5, wirth a res combo made specifically for the dual pump body.
While it's your choice and your money etc. But dual pump for just 1 CPU is the most absolute waste of money you can have for water cooling.
The purpose of multiple pumps is mainly to counter complex loops with alot of psi resistance, high count of fittings and rotaries, many waterblocks and/or redudancy.
I need to find the video, but I have seen one trying what you want. There was such little resistance in a basic simple loop that the MCP35x x2, managed to push the hard tubes out of their "very secure" bitspower fittings since they provide a whopping amount of head pressure at 100% pwm. The "newbie" in the video set them to max to bleed the air out of the loop. Don't think he realised how strong they were.
I use this. And even then its going through 3 radiators, 3 waterblocks and a plethora of angled fittings, yet only needs to be set at 30% pwm.

NeverBackDown, thank you for taking the time to comment. Tannji also thanks for your comments, Warchild, cheers for that, Kaapstad thanks for your words. I am still gleaning some do’s and don’ts lol but as stated it would be my own choice but after having a good read a round, I see its not a good idea for just a cpu. I don’t play games on my pc I just download through news groups mainly and watch through a bog-standard graphics card to my rather large tv lol. I’m more into having a decent fast overclocked pc more than anything, and my next new rig I am wanting to be doing 5ghz plus either using a full custom loop which I am a bit scared of building lol but will give it a go using soft tubing or an Aio 360 rig, Mmmm just watched over an hour’s worth of petg tubing and I will probably buy some over the xmas new year and practice and if it’s any good I may change to hard tubing.
[FONT="]Cpu wise I will be using one of these I think, i5 9600K, i5 8600K, Socket 1151 Coffee Lake Processors or an i7-7740X which all of the cpu’s can be had from £250 and under[/FONT]

I don't understand why people want to use two separate loops in a build.
Using a single loop is cheaper and makes far better use of the radiator space available.
Just comes down to Aesthetics. It's been proven that the temp different under load is negligible.

If a can get 4 Titans and a hugely overclocked 7980XE to run using the same bathwater without effecting the temps most other setups should be able to do the same.
So yes I totally agree it is down to aesthetics.
