In order to make my upcoming build really neat I want to use a fair number of 90deg elbows.

Obviously this will have an impact on flow, the more elbows the more restricted the flow and the stronger the pump needed.

Will this pump be able to handle around 10+ 90 deg elbows?

Or should I be looking at a dual loop to reduce the impact on the overall flow of each loop?

Thanks
 
Sure. All that will happen is the flow rate will go down, it's not going to reach zero.

Ten 90 degree elbows sounds excessive, is this a mini-itx build? I can't imagine a build that has space for two pumps & two radiators, yet needs a 90 degree elbow on almost everything. Is it a looks thing?
