Help High temps

change the fans back to the gentle typhoons, they are known to be good rad fans. then we can check air flow of the list of possibilities. we need to get this narrowed down.
 
The rads them selves are bleed as the UT60's have bleed valves.

If its not the fans, why does only having 2 fans going out of the 5 make no difference to temps when you have all 5 going?
 
Maybe i just still dont have enough rad space?
i am cooling a 3930k and 2 HD7970's but still temps were lower with a 360mm and a 120mm than with a 360 +240 that are 60mm thick. I just cant fathom out how this is possible, air has been bled, pump is good enough, no restrictions as far as i can tell. what else would make temps high?
 
So if there where air in blocks it would need to flow down on blocks area (if that firsth pic is rigth).
Even if there isnt air in loop now, i would sifth the pump a round.
As it is area that have most resistance.

my order would be, Res > Pump > 240 Rad > Gpu2 > Gpu1 > Cpu > 360 Rad > Res.

Also there migth be loop order in CPU block (in / out) change it, if needed.
 
loop order doesn't matter. water cooling works by creating a "constant" temperature exchange, meaning once the flow of water is started, temperatures remain constant so long as pump speed and fan speeds remain constant. changing the order of the hardware in the loop will only add or subtract a degree or two at most and will not change the problem he is having. the only things I can think of that would cause abnormally high temperatures (+10-15'C higher than what they should be) would be:

faulty pump
flow restriction
 
I'm going to get a new water block for CPU as this one is going to my brothers rig will install a flow monitor so can report the speed. Which water block is best for 2011?
 
I am starting to think maybe it is the pump some people are as ying the vpp655 doesn't handle too many blocks and radiators well. How can I test if its the pump?

maybe run it with just the 360 and check the flow meter and then do the same with the 360+240!

You are totaly rigth!

My point isnt what comes when, its how its setup.
Simple reason why i set it so it flows up on blocks, is the air after "bleeding".

Normaly you might have some air in system when you have bleeded without pump. And when you start your pump firsth time it trys to get out.
So to get those through block area is more easyer, when the flow is up.
Specialy to those little ones, after good 4 hour leek test.

And some res. can leed air back in loop after some use, so its better for those bubles too.
Not that it makes all the difference, its just easyer in loong run.

10ml is lot of air in loop, but not alot of water to notice.
