It has tons of glitches and software that doesn't work and really underpowered. The software idea is kinda cool if it
WORKED. Plus it's might be too big for my case and i got a vfd already. I spent a lot of money on my HTPC but i want value which I'm getting out of it. $50 VFD lying around is not usefull since i got $200 in WCing stuff lying around and hear all the time what i'm gonna do with that junk.
I get what you are saying about the logic of my statements. I think you misunderstood what I was saying about the 3 pin header, I just didn't feel like typing that much at the time but you had to get me in the mood JAYDEE.
I general i think this is a postive for all Wcing users because most of us run our rigs 24/7 and this does reduce power, heat, and noise, and offers monitoring and adjustablility.
With a 3 pin you can attach to a fan controller. This allows you to control the pump's power kinda like with the mcp 655 at different settings. Big difference is it is more on the fly and more accesible with a controller so I don't have to open a case to lower the pumps setting like mcp655. That type of adjustability appeals to me for all my computers.
This allows me to lower the pumps power and noise a bit when the comp is in idle and not recording. This also lowers heat dump from my computer and PSU so that is good for everyone. I mean 9-7 watts per hour isn't bad but if you can get it lower why not? Jaydee, You seeing it being pointless but I see it being more effiecient.
The pump has a small height so that helps with smaller htpc cases. Plus the MAG is a powerful enough pump to my taste. Around 6ft head and 300 gph.
The 3 pin also allows fan monitoring software to monitor the pumps rpms and so C-systems/ AVT doesn't need to offer that stuff so they can concentrate on making OEM pumps. All they need to worry about is the pump works fine on 3 pin header.
I hope you get my point now. I would of made it sooner if Hannibal Lecter didn't show up. Cheers.
