There is a pretty good biocide called pt nuke. comes in 2 types.... don't mix them.
----------------------------------------The D5 and variations on the theme are great pumps, certainly from a longevity and flow rate point of view and probably have enough head even for 4 modern cpu blocks. EK do a combined D5 pumptop/reservoir that is worth a look at. http://www.ekwb.com/shop/reservoirs-and-acc/res-pump-combo/ek-d5.html Got one in one of my duallies with D5 Vario, ek supreme blocks and an Alphacool NexXxos XT60 280 which is total overkill.... I just built it because I could. current pump setting = 3 Incidentally, I use car radiator anti-freeze @ 10% as an additive. I keeps the system clean at the cost of a little cooling performance  |

very little difference unless the pump is underpowered or the gpu blocks are very restrictive. I believe most go with serial.
----------------------------------------If you were running two pumps on the other hand then serial is the way pumps should be connected |
