 Most Excellent
I have been using this pump for about 4-5 months now. It has been perfect, nice and quiet operation. The pump body is filled with a kind of insulation material that contains the pump and provides noise blocking and protection from shock and the elements. Vibration is decent for its power however, I would recommend the dampening bracket kit (separate purchase) to attach the pump to your case, it makes a huge difference. In addition, you can pull out the PCB and connect the pump directly to the Innovatek controller (separate purchase) with the wires included with the controller. I believe the PCB board only provides voltage control and speed control but I am not positive (the Innovatek controller assume responsibility of these tasks). The controller does a great job at controlling this pump without harsh starts and stops. Be sure to get the proper hose attachments. The top one (output) comes with it but the side one (input) does not. This is because this pump was primarily designed to be attached directly to a reservoir. It would have been nice if Innovatek included a fitting for the side. The pump also easily slides off the base place (maybe a little too easily). The red pump model is not much more money but still not worth the cost. It uses double the wattage when the blue model is more than you will ever need for a single LARGE loop. I have a dual 80mm rad, going to CPU block, voltage reg block, north bridge/south bridge combo block, four Koolance RAM blocks, and two DD GPU water block, to a quad 120mm rad, to res and back to pump. The pump is running at 1/3 speed with easy 95 degree F water temps (after all blocks and before the quad 120mm rad!) with system overclocked 35% (Q9650 quad core) at full CPU and GPU load! (2x GTX280 BFG water cooled model). Tubing is ID 3/8”. If this pump can easily handle this load at only 1/3 then is will handle anything that you will ever have to throw at it. |

 One more thing...
This pump can also be mounted on its side to give more flexibility with tubing positions. |

Perfect Fit
I have recently installed this fan into multiple Linksys WRT54G/S routers for cooling. They were attached to the inside top of the unit where the holes are, blowing the air up and out of the unit. Simply patched into the routers 12v source from under the board. Runs very quiet and moves more than enough air to keep the router cool to the touch. I have a bunch of Linksys devices stacked, if you have the same setup, I would recommend having the device with the fan on the top of the stack. It will keep the below 2-3 units cool as well.
This fan size is important, 10mm thick, as the clearance inside the router is very small. I have done many measurements of the inside of the router and have determined that the 70mm wide fans will not fit due to a couple of reasons. If you choose to cool your Linksys router, get this fan. You can attach it with twist ties through the holes in the top of the router or like I did with that green magic putty stuff on the four corners. You don''t need very much, about half the size of a pea is more than enough per corner of the fan. |
