hey everyone, so i have an issue, i've installed full board waterblocks VRM/Southbridge on my Maximus VI Formula, and i have 2 GTX 780ti's in SLI, i'm trying to figure out how i should have my tubing set up to include the two ports between the two cards? should i add them to the loop after the cards? or before? or between? if i can avoid putting the lower block between the cards i'd prefer that, because i'm using a EK Bridge & Link system. here's a picture to help kind of figure it out. the cards aren't on the board, i haven't put the motherboard in the case yet.



Here's how the layout looks with the blocks/radiators/inlet/outlets




Thank you anybody who can help, i really REALLY appreciate it

P.S. I'm using regular tubing, not acrylic, but i do have a pretty good bend radius with the primochill advanced LRT, that and i have a boatload of fittings. if this helps here's the fittings to help plan it, i do have more 90/45/30 and straight fittings, they just aren't in the picture, if that can help also.





THANK YOU SO MUCH
 
This is a tricky one! I like a challenge!

Where in relation to the motherboard is your reservoir and pump going to be? What CPU waterblock are you using - does it as specific in and out ports? These things can influence your routing.

I'll have a play assuming these things don't matter and post a quick paint image as I don't have my image editing software installed yet :).

A few notes - I'd double check your input and output of your GPU's with EK bridge, I think your image may be wrong.

If you could ditch the EK bridge (it looks crap anyway imo) then the tube from the bottom GPU to the bottom chipset block could be better.

Another edit:

I think what I mentioned earlier EK bridge may be wrong, if the gpus are in parallel.
