Hi guys
Iam building a a new loop in a mid tower case and have very limited space.

I am looking for the best pump/res combo.
Its a small loop on just the CPU with dual rad
Any suggestions, I currently have a D5 and bay Bay res but dont have the room.

Do you have space for a dual bay type?

I use the XSPC 750 Dual bay res.. Decent pump and water capacity. Had it reliably running for years.

The problem with the single bay combos is the reduced pump output and the lack of fluid which i would assume increases the ambient water temperature as there is less water moving around.
 
With enough room you could do away with fans, probably even rads. You'd just need say, a swimming pool as your res :D

I once saw a build where the guy ran the coolant through pipes that ran around the bottom of his swimming pool so the pool absorbed the heat from the water in the pipes. Silent running!

Haha that's insane, shame I don't have a pool. Bet that was a fun project :)

I'm running the V2 version of that ( I think) it was great for about a year but now it is rather noisy. Is the V4 any better?
