[V12|V12]

Okay, there is no way in St.joseph's hell I'm dropping more money on a POS VIA... I heard Rio wasn't that great, but they have to be better or equal, I might try them... Don't get me wrong, This Via 1300 pumps hella fluid, but it runs HOT as hell! The damn pump dumps so much heat into my system! Heck, with the whole sys turned off, cept the pump, the block and the Rad feel HOTTER than with everything on! And I know for a fact that the Chevette cores can compensate for a ton of heat, even without the fans on... but this Via is just a heating machine! It's noisey, vibrates like a chainsaw! Okay maybe not that bad, but it's NOT what I expected from it. I've only got 2 90° bends in my whole sys and they are 1/2" bends, I'm running 1/2" to CPU and pump, massive 3/4" to and from rad so I KNOW there is not much flow resistance, my block isn't a maze or spiral, so it's not the bottle neck either... I'm thinking the dang PUMP itself is the bottleneck! HAHA F-U VIA!
