now, i really want to get into water cooling, as i have been researching for way to long, but i am stuck on the pump. now, the trend is to go out and by a big eheim pump, and no wonder you recon that water cooling is expansive! what i want, is alternative (read: cheap) pump sources.
im thinking a pump from a dead washing machine, but havent tried that yet, and i read of someone using this (http://www.dse.com.au/cgi-bin/dse.st...uct/View/P8907), at 5 volts so it can be left on permanantly, but you can get 'proper' pumps for that price.
has anyone used any out of the ordinary to pump their water, with good results, for a dirt-cheap price?
