Can you use two MCP660?

Phoenix-R · 12-10-2005, 08:20 PM

Hey guys, I'm new to the water cooling scene and I was wondering if you could run two mcp665 pumps together at the same time? The mcp655 is a dc pump (course i'm sure you know that already). If I can, is there something special I have to do to make sure they'll work together correctly? An info on this will be greatly rewarded...with heart warming appreciation of course...

From what I've seen, you can just put the two in and run it like normal. You would just want to give some thought to the postioning so you can get the best flow.

Thanks for the quick reply. If I can plug two of those pumps into the same psu then that is good news. I was considering putting the 1st pump down low and 2nd pump right above it. The tubing would then make an O shape like this:

111-111 - = pump
1 1 1 = tubing
1 1
1 1
1 1
111-111

I am still concerned that unless I somehow synchronize the pumps' opertion, that the pumps could actually work against eachother and cancel eachother out. This may not be a problem however as DC pumps are supposed to activate at the same time you activate your computer. I haven't really seen any info on how to use two pumps at once so I don't really know.

ick, looks like my reply O shape got squished onto the left side of the screen. It is supposed to look like an O with one pump on the bottom middle and the other pump on the top middle.
