When in closed loop, inlet size has little effect.
Inlet size only effects open loop tests that are common on reviews.

Test in close loop configuration sometime and you will see

I agree. Not everyone uses a open loop as my self.

Dan, I wouldn't say that open loops are common in reviews. At least not in the experience I've had.

But thanks for clearing that up.

I still think you guys are worrying about nothing

**Note you can still dye type III fine, the color is darker often. I know many think "hardcoat" can only be gold or black.... but that isn't so. As too costs, anodozing in Canada is REAL cheap, so even it if doubles cost, we are talking about cents...guess we will charge 5$ more... J/K
With regards to the type III, when will that be included in the finished products? I placed an order a few days ago, but I will cancel it if the type III will be delayed more than the current backlog in orders. I will be ordering a pump, I just want a type III version.

Thanks Hotseat.

Interesting bit, C-Systems is no longer conducting direct customer sales and all future sales and orders placed at C-Systems since 06/02/04 will be conducted by D-Tek. The pump is not on D-Tek's site as of yet, but the order page at C-Systems refers all future orders to D-Tek.

They sold them to Dtek? Didn't they see what happened with the WW? Oh well, hopefully they'll maintain the quality (and the type three finish)

i believe dtek are just handling retail sales - C-sytems will still make them...

D-Tek and C-Systems have formed a partnership and as a result we will handle all retail and distribution of the C-Systems product line. The CSP750 and CSPX2 pumps will not be posted on the site yet for ordering but we will take email/ phone orders for retail and distributor requests. This will be exciting as C-Systems high quality products are engineered for performance and conveinience and new products are also in the works in the upcoming weeks. (my bold)

ok, so the current requests are:
1. rpm monitoring if possible
2. Anodizing in different colors. I want red
3. Polycarbonate tops. I wouldn't worry if it looks hazy where the cnc milled it, us enthusiast can polish it
4. my request is a 3/8 inlet size, I do have a reservoir and I believe the system would benefit from a bigger opening in a semi open loop. correct me if I'm wrong.
5. all of those worried about corrosion, could you make the pump out of copper? (I don't really care... just an idea)

I would keep the threaded tops, that's what I need.

What is the ETA on ordering more of these? I am interested in getting at least 3, 1 alone and a 2x kit. although I would wait to get myn anodized in red!

I have a peltier that's dieing for more coolant flow!

Excellent idea. You could hook it up to one of the mobo fan plugs and set MBM to sound an alarm or shut the system off if the pump stopped. Hell, I would even buy one just for that.

Do you suppose there will be a canadian retailer for this product? I'm not enthused at the prospect of having to pay duty when ordering from Dtek for an item that appears to be manufactured in Canada.

There are supposedly no duties on stuff manufactured in Canada or the US. The duties are placed on stuff made in Malaysia, let's say, and retailed in the US.

There is only no duty if a NAFTA certificate is enclosed. Very, very few american retailers will include NAFTA certificates with orders.

Cars intended to be sold as a fleet, such as taxis or police cruisers, are actually made to different standards. As an example, my dad's CrownVictoria taxi is pushing 350K and has had no major problems.

You only have to look at how much a black cab (as seen in most UK cities) costs to realise there must be something different about them.

C-Cystems CSP750 pump review

Robo, this is your site?

I have one comment about the example system with a CPU block running in paralell with a VID and NB block. is there a way to do it without the 2 Y-adapters, assuming the CPU block has 2 exit barbs (i.e. WhiteWateror cascade)?
Thanks.

here it comes out to about $0.25 per mile, also real expensive. And the high prices arnt only for the car, its also for insurance and licence fees and membership fees that the drivers have to pay. Generally, the larger the city, the more the driver has to pay, therefore the cost is higher in larger cities. And our cabs are yellow, btw

Sorry, perhaps I wasn't clear.

I meant how much they cost to buy.

They cost a small fortune.

No, not "my" site... (one of the sites I write for)

Yes, you could connect the VGA and Chipset waterblocks in parallel using a dual outlet CPU block and a custom reservoir with dual inlets, like this...
