Get a MC34063A chip and wire it up like this:

Ct = 300 pF
Rsc = 0.3 Ohm
Lmin (you can use a higher one) = 70 uH
Co = 330 uF
R = 180 Ohm
R1 =1k
R2 =10k
Vin is +12, the Vout will be 13.5V to 13.75V and a max current of 1.1A. It will have a max ripple of about 100mV at 20kHz.
PS: you're gonna need resistors rated for at 1W on R1 and R2 and please get at least the 5% ones. Use a 1N5818 for the schottkey diode.
EDIT: I forgot to label the input capacitor, use 100uH there.

That's actually a very nice wire diagram and should be pretty much bang on what the PO needs. +rep

R1 and R2 need not be 1W. Pin 5 is a high impedance input for feedback, therefore very little current flows into that pin (little enough to ignore completely). The only current flow through the resistors is from Vout to ground. The shared power dissipation of the two resistors can be found (taking Vout to be 14V) from P=V^2/R = 14^2 / 11k = 18mW.

And so, in fact, R1 and R2 can be rated for 1/8W.

150W is a little over kill don't you think biggrin.gif $15.00 US is pretty cheap though and its a quite compact design so it might just be worth it thinking.gif

Edit: It actually seams that there is a decent selection of boost converters for sale on ebay. I saw some for as low as US $3.99 and 15W output (enough for a small pump).

Thread Starter 
Thanks for all the help guys! I might give ebay a shot first since those are really cheap

Basically what happened is my friend gave me his h100 because of pump noise, which persists even when lowering RPM with my adapter hooked up to a fan controller (extensive testing). He went the custom loop route as he didn't want to bother with RMA.

I just want to see if increasing the RPM would have any effect on:
A: Performance
b: The sound

But as some mentioned, the RPM is controlled by the chip on the pump PCB

I will see what I can do

I always go overkill for reliability. wink.gif Plus - it only does 100W without upgrading the heatsink, and I was thinking worst case scenario of jammed pump, where the current would increase significantly, And you don't want to run these flat out, they can burn up too! smile.gif
