pump for water cooling

snon200 · Nov 23, 2015

hi, im planning on building an open loop with a cpu and gpu (maybe add another one in the future), i will use this block for the cpu: swiftech apogee xl and a reservoir thats about 240 mm tall, what pump whould you recommend? what type (ddc or r5) and how many l/h? im thinking of getting a ddc pump that can deliver 850 l/h, will that be enough?

The DDC 850l/h should be more than enough for this system for just 1 GPU and the CPU ive never tested an 850 on a SLI setup so I cant advice past that.

thanks, and whats better for me? a ddc pump or r5 pump?

i dont think your setup will mean any major difference between the two pumps. Better off getting a d5 vario and setting the speed as you wish - save costs and as most people do 'set and forget' once you find the right speed. Keep in mind d5 is larger than DDC and quieter, in case that makes a difference.

i have enough space so thats not an issue, what will give me better performance and deliver move water?

Yes substantially and its quieter as you may know some water cooling systems can get pretty noisy.
