hi

guys

i need your help plz

Look for a very powerful pump and be silent and unobtrusive (water cooling )

is this good ?

http://www.frozencpu.com/products/1...w_Swiftech_PWM_Pump_Installed.html?tl=g30c107

or i buy 2 pump








If you have any advice TELL ME
I'd be very fast and powerful water flow

and i need fan speed for my computer silent and have gret flow air i will buy 11 !!!

that my computer

Also will buy water tank horizontally
I will buy a lot of cooling and modification accessories because the device patient is old and needs to be developed
If someone told me tips

Please.




 
What's all in your loop? The D5 is a good pump, but even it has its limits. Dual D5s might be more appropriate.
 
I have a D5 myself, pushing through 1 CPU block, 2 universal GPU blocks, and 3 radiators. If you get the D5 make sure you get the adjustable speed one as it helps with tuning the silence.
 
good? yes...

worth its value?
HELLZ NO...

199 dollars for a pump, i better be getting a bay res or a res attachment with it.

You can find the same pump by itself for a lot cheaper, or u can find it with a res attachment of some sort for the same price from another vendor.
 
Another vote for a D5 pump with a res/pump housing assembly. D5 is the best you'll find for noise and power without spending a ton.
 
Another option would just be to say screw unobtrusive, and buy an E10. You can get one cheaper than the D5 you picked out, and it'd look ... substantial sitting in your case.

For that price you could get a dual head D5.
But it you want to separate the men from the boys, don't buy those toys!
Go Iwaki RD30/RD40 powered off a 75W Meanwell or equiv. 16V for quiet or 28V for power (and noise)...

Afraid that looks like a bad choice.
1) It's powered off mains so more (class I) wiring needed with a relay to control its motor
2) Appears to be a circulation design - great throughput at low head but when presented with a few blocks and fittings back pressure will jump and serial flows could approach shut off values resulting in a poor result (less circuit flow than a DC drive D5). And that induction motor surely will sink considerable amount of heat into the coolant, possibly 50W or more!

It's a Laing E10. It uses essentially the same spherical rotor design as the D5, though as you noted it's an AC model. Impeller is different (and way bigger, obviously). It's not an induction motor at all, its AC/DC/AC model and the microcontroller drive is likely the same topology as the D5, though I haven't looked at it too much.

Definitely not at home in every case though. I was just putting in an order yesterday at McMaster anyway and decided to buy one to play with. It doesn't have the high end pressure of the RD-30 for stupid restrictive loops, but it should put out a massive amount of flow into a realistic loop.

At $145 it's a pretty stellar deal if you can handle the interface. 🙂

Even such I wouldn't want to use it since it's designed for circulation not pressure. That kind of zero head flow would drop super quick in the relative congested circuits found in PCs, 1/2" OD be-damned!

I have used the RD30 though. Very nice mover. Was going to order an RD40 before moving to central chiller taps.

And another thing to add, most hobbyist engineered systems would suffer from suction restriction and the resulting cavitation would destroy that design in mere hours. 😉

Why do you say that? The max head isn't much different than the D5s, but the E10 can push the same 20ft out to 4GPM. Other than that, the shape of the curve appears pretty similar to the D5S.

The RD-30's are legendary pumps. It's too bad they're so difficult to find anymore.

I'm using my D5 with a XSPC bayres and so far it works really well. I believe I bought the set for about $150 CAD, which must be about $5 USD now lol.

It's a real PITA. I'm just waiting for the dollar to drop to the point where USD15=CDN150. It'll make the mental math really easy.

That pump would be fine for external cooling with larger lines. It's also nearly 100W. And again circulating designs aren't necessarily good for pressure applications and when presented with a larger (0 head) flow, the pressure quickly escalates.

That said, let us know what your results are.

We had excellent results with RD30s but the systems cooled were not your typical PC for sure.
