Stonerboy779 Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 how many degrees can i possibly gain from getting the faster pump you suggested? cause i'm already a bit over budget and i can only fit one 120mm fan in my case, and there is not enough space for an backside mount. so the xspc rads are not relevant for me. Would this work for you Pump - Alphacool VPP655 - single edition Res - XSPC Acrylic Tank Reservoir for Laing D5 CPU waterblock - EK Water Blocks EK-Supreme LTX AMD - Plexi Rads - Phobya G-Changer 120 and Phobya G-Changer 280 Cost - $291.47 (USD) or 1625,83 kr (NOK) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonerboy779 Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 With fittings barbs will be cheaper but won't look as good as compression. However also have the added bonus that they can generally be less prone to leaking when clamped off. Tube get a decent quality tube and make sure you check inner and outer diameters to make sure you have the right size. Fans Yate loon is good but bare in mind those fans and the blademasters are really damn loud you may want to undervolt them with a fan controller so noise levels are more tollarable.

Edit: can i use the fan controller to control the pump? and can i use distilled or boiled water in the loop? Edit 2: i found this review on the pump/res you recommended( 1200L/H @12v ) and the difference between it and the phobya pump/res ( 800L/H @12v) is not that great in performance , so i don't know if its worth it?

Stonerboy779 Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) In a restricted environment yes with 1/2" tubes the d5 pumps pull alot further away although you should still get more than adequet performance from that pump/res if you want to save more. you have picked your tube and fittings right. Good to see you are going coloured tube not coolant. Just run distilled water and put a silver kill coil in it somewhere. Either are good but you can get others cheaper however if you are willing to spend up in that region and will be saving on the pump. This Scythe Kaze Master is brilliant. Control for 6 fans as well as monitoring 6 different fan speeds and 6 different temps if you wish it comes with 8 temp probes in case you bust any.

StoneBridge Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) ok, this is my shopping cart.. am i doing it right? i'm probably gonna order after christmas, maybe i'll get it a bit cheaper Edited December 13, 2011 by StoneBridge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonerboy779 Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 ok, this is my shopping cart.. am i doing it right? i'm probably gonna order after christmas, maybe i'll get it a bit cheaper Very good looks alright. At the money your spending on that Lamptron controller get the Scythe one instead. I will fix the link which I messed up and here it is. You will be able to control all 6 of your fans and have as many or as little of the temp sensors set up as you like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fans you just got draw only just over 2 watts which is nowhere near 11 and even further from 30. With the lamptron you will loose the ability to control 2 of your fans unless you play around with cable splitters. It also has temp sensing but if you want to stay with the lamptron controllers at least choose the fc6 instead of fc5 v2 it will save you 30kr for all the same features just 20watts instead of 30 and you would still be able to use a splitter to control two fans at once of one channel ie. two 140mm fans on one side and then the two 140s on the other side of the 280 rad.
