Without considering the price, would that pump have advantages vs the Eheim? Considering noise, durability, power (vs the 1048)? The most important thing for me is noise.

its a 12volt pumps so i woulds say they not such a good idea.

1.they not meant for continious use
2.they draw pwr from ur psu if u not using a dedicated one
3.they pretty noisy
4.the flow is nothing to brag about.

it be best for u to get a mains supply aqua pump
the aqua via 1300 is good i hear

I was contacted today by a pump manufacture that saw my watercooling rig on the internet. They want to start distributing a line of pumps for watercooling purposes. They are sending me pumps to test out, and I am going to post reviews on soon. The pumps are inline pumps with the ratings of: 300gph, a 600gph, and a 900gph. After looking at the photos, and reading the specs on these pumps, I am already very impressed. I will post a new thread in the watercooling forums soon when I have more info for everyone.

the magnetic drive pump is used by some watercool case company..

1) yes they are
2) only 1.something amps,
3) no, their quieter then normal pumps
4) its as good as ehiem 1048

how many amps is your p/s rated for Liss? I know mine would notice a big difference (esspecially in the Vcore) if I added something drawing 1.2A

What is the heat output of that pump in watts? I would not trust that pump at all. Just my .02

Another advantage: it looks compact on 2 of its dimensions (easier to fit beside the floppy/HD tray?)
Power consumption:
Eheim 1048: 10W
This one: 14.4W (12V*1.2A)
So it discipate a bit more but i don't think it would really disturb a 400W or more powerful power supply. Something like 2 hard drives (i referred to operating consumption of western digital 5G hard drives.)
