Adding a booster pump

Hey All, I just purchased an Alphacool Eisbaer (Solo) block with TPV tubing and a 360 rad for my setup ( custom AIO effectively). If I wanted to at a later date include my GPU in the loop I know that the Eisbaer solo pump hasnt got enough grunt to supply to both CPU and the GPU itself. Is adding a booster pump after the rad ok or should i do something else?

The order of the loop would be CPU/Pump -> Rad -> Booster Pump -> GPU -> CPU...

Thanks!

yes, you will need the second pump. This position after the radiator is good. The pump should be under the radiator in order to be supplied with sufficient water. Please think about adding an expansion tank. This will make filling and later maintenance much easier.
