No worries, it wasn't taken as being critical. This was mainly a curiosity test that I wanted answers for. I waited long enough to receive the replacement stainless steel screws to replace the original ones that were rusted. I've already had the pump almost a month. Having waited that long, I didn't want to wait any longer to see how it performed. My biggest weaknesses are being impatient and obsessive compulsive. Not a good combination.
And now I have my answers, and I would definitely order another one. But any problems would would result in an RMA, as I now know what the performance is like. Now I just have to decide whether to go SFF or regular ATX for the A64 I will be building in a few months. The size of the SFF is amazing, but it would be cheaper to just swap boards and to keep my case. I'm leaning toward the SFF, but I'm still troubled by the lack of space around the AGP ports to be able to fit a nice cooler on my next powerful card that replaces my current 9700np. Decisions, decisions, decisions.
