Looking at this pump

[Oper8or]

I was reading about this pump. And IF it does what all it says it would be great, but the price is nuts.

Take a search on Asetek's support forums... lots of unhappiness with this pump..

Hi.

Would just like to add that there are a lot of hapiness with this pump also :cool:

I have just bought this pump and It's faboulous. It's quit, high performing, good looking..? (yeah right, I have no case window, But its nice to look at anyway)

I'm writing this to give Asetek a little credit, because my pump also has a little defect. It's working, but Asetek had a bad batch or two and I got one of the pumps with a fault on the grounding wire.

I just recently installed the pump and during the installation I discovered that my cooling heads for the chipset and VGA had developed cracks. These are more than 1,5 years old. But I would expect a little longer lifespan.

I reported the discoverings I made to Asetek through their support ticket system on their web site. They replied "semi-promptly" (This happened during the recently held Cebit conference where a great part of Asetek staff attended so one weeks overall response time is OK by me)

I'm instructed to send in my defect cooling heads and my pump, if I really needed to use the grounding wire (which I don't)

So my bottom line is that it's not all bad this pump/reservoir combo rocks OK. Of course I would have preferred not to have problems like th etwo I just described. But as long as I'm not "left alone" by the manufacturer I'm satisfied. I'm not saying this because I have any relationship with Asetek except that we both reside in beautiful Denmark :)

Maxium head is only 240cm (just under 8 feet). That's a bit low for a high-end system. I suggest tracking down the P-Q curve before you buy.
