Greetings to you all,
I was wondering whether the Eheim 1048 would be strong enough to power a little water cooling system I'm building.
The setup consists of an Athlon 2400+ and Radeon 9700 Pro,
a CPU waterblock with flow restriction similar to Cathar's White Water block,
DangerDen's GPU block for the Radeon,
and two Camry heater cores by Denso, in parallel,
all connected via 1/2" ID tubings and cramped into a fairly small case with short distances between components.
...would Eheim 1048 pump be sufficient, or is the 1250 a necessity in order to assure acceptable flow rate through the system? My goal is to make this system quiet yet decently performing, and I assume that the 1250 is somewhat louder than the 1048. I've read here that the Iwaki pumps tend to be louder than the 1250, and so I would prefer to stick with the Eheims
