JWFokker, sorry, I did not realize you had to sign up even to read that board. Cathar has done an in-depth multi-page reference post titled - How much pump is too much? How much is enough? [Edit: Note there is now a duplicate of this thread posted in the ProCooling forum].
I think it would be disrespectful to quote much of it here, especially with the risks of quoting out of context to the reference charts and data. However here is one small snip. DO NOT select a pump that draws more than 50W of power. Performance will not improve further and the pump will be drawing more power than is needed, effectively being a waste of electricity which just shows up on your power bill. Pumps drawing much more power than 50W will actually make your CPU hotter. Last edited by DDogg; 11-04-2004 at 05:13 PM. |

Nothing beats a good Leffe, Grimbergen, or Chimey ( Belgium beers )
also, the Newton ( apple flavored beer, great one ![]() noteworthy : Gueuze, Mort Subite are good, Desperado is decent |

This one still catches my eye though. 65W, but it's got 14.5ft head and "the lowest heat trasfer of any pump on the market" if the manufacturer's claims are to be believed. Also supposedly quiet. And at only $10 more than the MCP650, I'd wager it's worth a look. 10" long is a pretty big pump though. It might not fit between my hard drives and video card.... It must not be cooled by the water it pumps like a lot of pumps. This one is fan cooled, which probably explains why it doesn't add much heat to the water. |
