Please not a very good drawing did a quick sketch using MSP. Never run a single loop and need some sound advice please. Do you see any issues with the loop or do need to make changes to the single loop? After putting in a lot of thought this is the shortest loop possible unless I missed something. Should the loop be split between the radiators and the blocks?
 
Loop Order from Mod Top to Rad number 1 to rad number 2 to rad number three to block 1, to block 2 to block 3, to block 4 to block 5, to block 6 to block 7 to either EK or Bitspower Mod Top for a ingle loop with 2 x D-5 Swiftech Pumps (Uber 655s).

Must apologize tried for 3 months trying to get Evga Mother Board none available in Thailand. I am using the Evga 580 Hydros with 3 years of hard use. Was amazed the water blocks had no build up and the GPUs still run like a champ decided not to up grade the GPUs. Used Distilled water only and 2 Kill Koils.

    T line with a valve and plug for easy draining, otherwise looks good to go.
    Also, unless you are trying to push the ragged edge of memory latency, really no need to cool it, having airflow over the heatsink in 99% of all timers is fine.

    Thanks for the recommendations  
     
    Not going to push the raged edge on the OC do not gain that much clocking the mem with that said will leave off the blocks on the mem and improve the water flow less fittings and turns. 
    Plan on installing QDC, drain and get the tubing on the mother board installed so the tubing is running in the same direction. Changed the radiators and decided to use XSPC-RX360-BK-V3 instead of the AX 360s or the SR-1s according to test done by the pros the V3 cool better and need a lower RPM fan at 800 RPM thru a 1,000 RPM compared to 1200 RPM to 1400 RPM on the AX version radiators. The fans will be in a push configuration and or Push Pull configuration. Not enough room for the monster rads with out purchasing more up grades on the M-8 Case.

    Alright, good call there, I think you will really like the results.  For the RX I would recommend Noiseblocker fans, they are VERY quiet and are well made and would work well with your current setup.

    Thanks Dave  appreciate the advice got off track read below. Have to agree with you on the NB. Planning on using NB - Black Silent Pros PL-2  x 15 to 24 depending on Push or Push-Pull Configuration  800 RPM thru 1000 RPM should be nice and quiet. Will start with push configuration = x 15 my ambient temps are high around 32c to 34c = 89F to 93F.
     
    Considering the Aquaero Pro-6 controller have not decided yet may use x stations to power the fans from the PSU. Considering the number of fans in the build. Please advise.
     
    The two radiators in the top will push the air thru the radiators from inside the case since heat rises.
     
    The bottom radiator will push air from out side the case towards the top.
     
    Intake fans:
    2 fans mounted in the front left of the case and three fans mounted right front of the case. The rear fan will be intake.
     
    All of the air is exhausting thru the top of the case thru the 120.3 radiators x 2 = 6 fans in push. 9 fans intakes = 15 fans. Need to improve the cooling can add 9 more fans to the radiators and 2 more intake fans in the bottom of the case = 26 fans. That is extreme do not think it will be necessary.
     
    Same on the opposite side of the case see red arrows for air flow.
     
    Unfortunate mistake I made took the CaseLabs M-8 to a pro-builder the water cooling loop is non since not what I asked them to do. Enough said on to bigger and better. The installed Rads are the wrong rads. Needed to confirm my plan on the loop. Hope to start the build in a couple of months need to re coop some of the money invested prior to doing the build over.
