Been checking out E-Bay for parts online. Anyone had an experience with one of these? Via Aqua 1300

I'm looking for cheap that will work with a basic water cooling setup.

Take a read at this sticky too. You might be able to find one even cheaper.

I'd get this if I was in the market for a budget pump. Only $35, and I've heard good things about it.

good pump, kinda low output for a multi block system, but almost exactly on par with the 1300

the D4 is shaping up to become the best pump evar, IMO

swifty seems to be sealing (sealed) a deal with Laing to market/sell silenced versions

rumors, rumors

When he saves up enough $$ he can buy another one and connect it like in this pic:

Or like this:

Or am I wrong?

tough to tell from those pics, but it could be hooked up

one more thing to break, one more thing to leak....all how you look at it.

But what do you expect from a budget system? Atleast he has the option.

I use a Rio Pump/Powerhead 600, which cost me $35 Canadian. It's a 200Gph Pump, and by the looks of the speed the water is going by in my tubing (There's still a touch of air trapped in one) it does quite excellent performance.

I'd imagine that in the states this pump would be $15 to $20.
