Aqua Extreme 50z specs:
Nominal Power (@12 V): 9 W
Maximum Head: 10.5 ft. (3.2 m)
Maximum Discharge: ~ 185 GPH (700 LPH)
Laing D5:
Nominal Power (@12 V): 24 W
Maximum Head: 10 ft. (3.1 m)
Maximum Discharge: ~ 317 GPH (1200 LPH)
Ok, so we know the D5 has the best flow rate, but the 50z has half the heat dump, so for a relatively low-restriction setup (6002 or apogee), what would be the better pump to pair up with a single BIP?
Im pretty sure with a dual 120mm radiator, the heat dump issue wont be a problem and the D5 should be the way to go, but if i was going to build a budget water-cooling system, would the 50z be a better choice to cool a low restrictive block (cpu only) with a single BIP?
