Cooling pump question

[Keith Strout]

I plan on buying a water cooling system..... the question I had was for the pump.

I plan on buy the 24v controller.......where does the 24v come from? my power supply? if so how many watts will it consume?

No idea how many watts and I assume it comes from your PSU what are your system specs?

still figuring out what wattage psu I need

 

[ssimpss]

Check out PC part picker they have a wattage calculator built in and you may even get your parts cheaper. then what ever they come up with add on another 200w and you will be cool but make sure you get a moodier PSU for this sort of build.

Your typical D5 pump consumes ~25W when running at the full 12v. So doubling the voltage to 24v would mean that its consuming roughly 50W.
For a rig like that, I would say 850W.

Yeah I agree 800w to 900w would be a good figure without looking myself
