Do you think there would be added benefit adding another rad to the loop?It's a lot of hassle to strip down a Matrix card, so I have just left mine alone.
Thats what I’m debating.
How long are the pipes for the rad?

So the AIO card is £3k, or you could get a standard 4090 and a block for £1800, and not waste the pump/res that comes with the AIO card.
I know if you're buying a 4090 you aren't short of cash, but imo it's still going to be quicker/easier to just put a block on a card and have proper fittings than trying to mess with an aio.
Totally agree, but I invested in the loop years back, got black ice radiators and stuff.This is how I feel, you're better off getting a normal card and a block, and "investing" in the rest of your loop. Less chance of a bodge that breaks something, that ROG card is not meant to be integrated.
I have a 4090 FE and a EK block but if I was doing it now I would get a Heatkiller block as I think it looks a lot better.If I was to get a stock version of the 4090 and a water block, any suggestions?
Two pumps shouldn't be an issue
Done it loads of times for redundancy reasons
Admittedly not with an AIO gpu
But have done it with swiftech AIO
Tested by disconnecting each pump
And the single pump including the one in the AIO
Still was fine for cpu and gpu loop
Though not as high powered as a 4090
Something like 5950x and 2080ti would be last time I did it
But flow was adequate
Yeah redundancy was main reasonIf one fails it’s very likely going to impact the performance of the other. With both running any PWM control will be all over the place. I suppose the upside is you have some level of redundancy. If I was doing this for whatever reason I’d set them up in parallel.
