what is the rate of flow for a decent water pump?

dazed and confused

About 150-160gpm the enhime 1048 is a nice one.

I would choose the Eheim 1250 if you are looking at a large case on remote radiator larger than a single 120mm size.

I am currently looking into it for my up-comming rig and they look to get the job done well.

but remember to use large tubing with it.

cheers

I would look for at least 300gph/1200lph.

the dangerden D5 pump is rated i believe for 317gph.. youd have to check on that tho.. www.dangerden.com

ive got one of these guys and it performs really well, got it going through a cpu/chipset/nv68/and a 77 bonnie core

works best with 1/2" id tubing, had mine for over a year now and no problems

Also watch out for the flowrate specifications as they are mostly at zero head, you need to take this into account.

ie: Eheim 1250 is 1200L/hr at zero head and at 1200mm it is 700L/hr.

I agree, this is the pump that I reccommended from dangerden. I think this is however, the slightly more expensive, QUIET option. I would go with this one. I have about 6 feet of 1/2" ID tubing, and it creates WAVES in my reservoir its a good pump.

Yes, the DD D5/Swiftech MCP655 (They're the same thing) is a great pump. I'm using 2, one on a rig with 2 7800GTX SLI Blocks, a STORM, a dual res, a heatercore, and that's it...Other one's on a STORM, MAZE4 GPU, heatercore and a single bay res. Both work awesome.

The D5 and the Eheim 1250 are both great pumps. I have the Eheim and I haven't had one problem with it and in my high flow system it does a great job.

I like the fact that the Eheim is powered by AC rather then it taking away from my power supply. I don't think you could go wrong with either pump.
