I have one of these and it's really good. Quieter than the 1046. Seems to provide more pressure than the 1048. Does still need a bit of foam underneath it. Works really well with the Swiftech 6000 water blocks. If you end up getting the 1046, 1048, or the Innovatek 12V 1046 (HPPS), consider the Innovatek AGB-O-Matic push-on reservoir. Turns the pump into a very slick hybrid submerged/inline.
You could also wait a month or so and see what kind of noise reports come back about the Laing DDC (Swiftech MCP 350 ?) See
this thread. I'll be buying one to mate with the Storm I have here - unless noise reports are negative...
Anyway, note that the DDC is
cheaper than the HPPC, has more pressure, more volume, and
might be nearly as quiet. The pump body is smaller and it looks as though it'd be as reliable as an Eheim (which is saying quite a lot)
