Though for the price you could buy two Mag 3's and keep one as backup.
Yes, a backup pump is really good to have when then first pump leaks, the cooling system runs dry, the GPU and CPU overheats, melts the tubing onto the barbs causing a leak at barb points resulting in superheated water dripping all over the motherboard internals just before the CPU and GPU fry themselves.

At about that time, one would be very glad that they had a second pump handy that was also prone to leaking, and be most thankful that they didn't waste their money spending twice as much for a quality pump in the first place.
