probably u need to supertight the connector.. and test it out for a day to check possible leaks.. i dont see why u need that much power in the pumps.. tak takut cpu blok meletup?  |

radiator free..
container also free..
just the pump..it cost me rm100...
swiftech G4 rm330
now no card reader..cannot take out the pic ..may be later la..
if i use the pump..two thing only i worry about..
one i run it 24/7
two waterblock wil boom...but i can use the pipe ID and OD more bigger one..it wil slow down the water flow..

err.... i'm highly sceptical about the pump. bigger and more powerful doesnt mean better when it gets too big. besides the amount of heat dumped into the water. I have no idea what the specs of the pump are. be it power consumption, the max head, what sort of fittings you're gonna use...
it doesnt look like a very favourable option. you shud probably have choosen a good aquarium pump instead.

It is better for you to test it outside for 1 day before get it into real action.  Suggest you to replace the pump with aquarium pump ie.nirox/eheim/ocean free/dymax etc.. |

erm... 10k rpm is fast ...... ( too much pressure ) for RM 100 ( pump ) maybe u can get a nirox or eheim. |

ya..thinking to use aquarium pump since i use it for 24/7...i dont think tat injection pump wil handle all the thing for 24/7 la..
by the way the injection pump much much smaller then aquarium pump, it will easyly fit it my casing as well...just simple hang at there,it should be fine...
anyway,using injection pump, it challenging u know

Better safe than sorry buy a good aquarium pump. No point going the cheap and dangerous route and put all your expensive hardware at risk! Hats off to you though, quite creative!  |

Do not use more then what an Iwaki is rated as it will blow apart your loop imminiently no matter what you do.Not to mention the heat dump generated from the pump. Not to mention what damage it will do in terms of pressure jetting to the block

If you plan to use a G4, the aquarium pump which won the budget pump shoot out in Amok's guide in the Watercooling for newbies guide stickies would be a suitable match to it. Too strong a pump and you might rip to pieces the delrin in the impingement plate
