I'm ready to get a new shiny pump for the loop I'm building. I was wondering which pump you would suggest I buy. I've narrowed my selections down to 2.
The D5 Vario http://www.petrastechshop.com/swmcin12pu.html or Peta's Laing DDC w/ Petra'sTech DDCT-01s Top Combo http://www.petrastechshop.com/laddcwpeddto.html I will also be running a GTX 240 rad and the Fusion v2 block. Thanks for th help guys! I know I'll get some excellent feedback.

You can't go wrong with either choice, as both pumps are made by Laing.
But, since my D5 has been pushing both my Stinger and Fuzion through dual heater cores for nearly 2 years without a single hiccup, I say D5.

There are better tops than Petra's.
Use Martin's calculator to see which pump is better for your loop: http://www.martinsliquidlab.com/Mart...Estimator.html

Both the D5 Vario and DDC w/ Petra's top are excellent choices; you can't go wrong with either.

D-5 vario...You can play around with your flow rates with it, you can drop it down on 2-3 setting to help speed up bleeding a little also...That and I just trust it more then a DDC, reliability wise...

Another vote for the Vario. Seems extremely strong and nice and quiet.
