This pump I got is loud as hell, and doesn't work for shit. I have a quiet submersible one on the way now. Should be here this evening.

I admit I reduced the fittings out of necessity, but the hole that actually goes through the pump is smaller than my fittings. It's sucking water .........it sucks my finger up tight to the hose, but the water is just not getting out the other end through the waterblock I guess. It's only trickling out and it's supposed to be pumping up to 4 gallons a minute w/ 50psi.
Anyone know about pumps? I'm going to try a submersible fountain pump, although I am kind of skeptical about it.

The lowest my cpu went was 21c with this pump installed. It was running 4-5c with the other pump that was obviously doing a better job.


BTW...do you think the previously mentioned temps could have hurt my cpu if only for a couple minutes? I'll find out later I guess.
