Found out about this review on the procooling forums. They're pretty cheap, but the real advantage is a dual pump configuration in parallel for 12v solution at a low cost.

$69.99 for the dual setup, and that still doesnt seem to perform as well as the common pumps

actualy from the review the dual pumps performed great

the singles where a little behind the L30 . i wouldnt use those pumps in a single but would definately consider a double setup

If you read the review closely, the last recommended setup is in parallel, and this is the setup he recommends. Here is the thread where the actual president of c-systems ( I think he's the president) explains the benefit of using these pumps in parallel.

That actually looks really neat... might consider getting 2 instead of my L30.. although I do love my L30 :D

I don't see the advantage... you don't have to have a "common base" for a dual pump configuration.

I just like the 'cool' factor of two pumps. Then again running 2x Gen-X Mak 4's would be pushing it, even in my setup.

I wouldn't use that tiny thing for performance blocks, but for a little SFF or very simple loop that's excellent :)

I think performance blocks don't require such huge pumps anymore. With Cathar's new block and the new MCW6000, the need for huge and loud pumps and also tubing is diminishing. I personally would rather have a system with 3/8 tubing and these 2 small pumps running in parallel with Cathar's new block or the MCW6000 just for the convenience of a small watercooling setup. I bet two of these in parallel with 3/8 inch tubing and a low restrictive Fedco 2-342 heatercore and a MCW6000 will match the performance of a Whitewater with a high end pump, 1/2 inch tubing, and a heatercore. Even Cathar himself wants to try to move to high performance blocks with smaller tubing.
