All positives.
1) Would love to hear your scientific theory on that.
2) According to Dave the MAG is already dead quiet so why is noise an issue? http://forums.procooling.com/vbb/sho...5&postcount=20
3) Umm, your power supply (or power bill) is not going to care much about 8watts at the pumps full load eh?
4)Monitoring is useless if your not around eh? What you want it a automatic shut down... Umm, oh yeah, any major mobo made in the last 2 years already has that....

What you really want is some fancy looking crap that really does nothing useful to make yourself look cool to those few people that see your computer because you may think they actually care. Kinda like the ricer fanboy/wannbe's that buy a 93hp civic for $1,000 and put $5,000 into the LOOKS of the car and then actually pay someone to put on a expensive muffler that makes those 93HP sound like ass. Can't forget the R-TYPE sticker either. That's good for another half inch right? And then drive around acting like they own the road.

What I am getting at is why don't spend our time now perfecting the things that are actually beneficial to performance and THEN worry about the flash... Let's get a pump that is "really" dead quiet so it doesn't need voltage mod (oh yeah, and has an active and functional QC department). Let's get a pump with a built in shut off switch that detects flow when it stops and shuts the comp off. And better yet con a mobo manufacture to make a mobo with built in pump support instead of half assing a fan header.

After all this is PROcooling. Not LooksGoodcooling.
