First time posting here. I have followed the threads here for awhile. I did some testing this past week-end on flow rates using a Quiet One Pump (it is silent). Hooked the pump up using various configurations I measured the following flow rates. Average flow with 3/8 tubing, 3 home-made copper HD coolers, Be-cooling water block, 5-way home-made copper splitter, home-made copper collector res and Aquastealth cube was 48 gph. With just 3/8 tubing and rad the flow was still only 64 gph. So I don't think the Quiet One is overkill, at least for my system (Dual OC'd Pent and 3 10,000 rpm SCSI drives to cool). My goal is silence. The pump and rad will be mounted outside in their own case.
