WOW!

How the heck did we go from "does the 1060 cavitate" to "WW not our firend" to "Overclocking peristaltic pumps" ?!?!?!?!?!


Anyways, Well if you guys are interested here is what I have setup in my cooling loop right now;

Res. = 1 1/2" PVC pipe ~1' long at higest point in system
1/2" tubing out the bottom of res. in to 90degree elbow to pump
SEDRA 3500A 1/2" intake to NOW 1/2" exhaust
1/2" "T" going to (2) 3/8" lines

WaterBlock 3/8" line TC-4 (no turbulators)
Gemini GPU Block 3/8" line

1/2" "T" taking 3/8" lines back to 1/2" line to radiator
DTEK Custom radiator 1/2" lines
3/8" line from radiator to 3/8" intake on res.
(Yes I know that 3/8" ine between radiator and res is NOT good; will convert to all 1/2" as soon as I can cut some more holes in case)

I think the intake on the pump is rated for 1" thread and the exhaust is rated for 1/2" thread.

Found link to details on pump (thanks BigBen)


Sedra 3500A

Now do you think that I could be starving the pump of water from the intake? Would going to 5/8" lines from res. to pump would "cure" this pumps noise problem?
