I am in the process of picking out the parts of my new H20 cooling system and I stumbled accross this pump/resivoir and it looks pretty sweet. If is 500 gph for a pretty good price. Theres a pic below and the include to a more in depth description and price is here.

I've got both of those-as in the 145 gph 110v pump and the 500 gph 12v pump. It's nice, looks good, but the 500 gph is tough to get the air out. The 145 seems fine, even with a video card block.

it looks like a good deal myself
i dont use this pump myslef but ill give ya my perspective.

1. i find it hard to beleive it actually could move 500 gph. mainly becouse 3/8" barbs, my pump is a 350 gph and it came with 5/8" id barbs. but im sure this will still be more than adaquate for 99% of watercooling applications.

2. if you have priced a resivour,pump,fittings. its a great deal. especially with the looks this one has. not many homemade resivours will look this good.

3.altho id prefer 110v pump for its strengh. a 12v is most convienaint especially its gonna start up when you turn on the computer. i turn mine on at the surge protector

4. i have a order pending with that company you just linked to. its been a pleasure so far in everyway dealing with them. and im not the first around here to recomend them.

thats my pros and cons of it , i personally like it. but for me a larger inline magdrive fit my wants and needs better.
