Thank you so, so much Les.

Interesting that the 2mm bp is pretty much it until the 900lph mark, ahead of both the 4mm and 1mm solutions, at least until we get to low flow rates.

The flow coming in from on top and the 1.25mm base-plate pretty much keeps what I went with in the game at lower flow rates than 900lph I suspect, but thank you indeed. It means the 1.25mm solution is a good tradeoff between the AthlonXP die, and the P4 with its IHS, which is where I was aiming at.

Cathar, are you still of the opinion that higher flow doesn't matter much?
Huh? I was never of that opinion. I was of the opinion that as we got above 800lpm we get into rapidly diminishing returns and what Les is showing is that's basically true.

I have a seller here offering me a 2800lph (720gph) pump for a very good price ($35 USD) and am about to try that option out - perhaps two in series as you suggest.
