Quick Pump Question !!Need Help!!

WonderingSoul · Oct 8, 2006

The the Danger Den - DDC-12V REV2 "PLUS" The same as the MCP350 or 355? The Eheim looks great for only 60 dollars and moves more collant for the supposed sound level:

Laing DDC/DDC+ (AKA Swiftech MCP350/355), ~cost $70. The Laing DDC+ is the 18W version vs the 10W for the non Plus. With inlet/top modifications it bests the MCP655 for flow performance at slightly lower noise levels.

Pros: Very good pressure capability, very low noise (Eheim 1048 level), good for multiblock systems.

Basically I ask:
350, 355, or 1048?

I want the sound to be under like ~35db

The MCP355 is the same as the DDC-2. They are great pumps and I would suggest a D5 MCP655 if you don't get the DDC-2.

I agree with SIG

The DD pump you list should be the 18W "+" version.
If you get that pump you can get a modded top such as th eone from alphacool or the new (not out just yet) petrastechshop top. These tops will allow for more flow and 1/2" barbs.

on DD the D5 and DDC are the same price. Should I just get the D5 and run it lower? But that means I have to get a 3/8" conversion kit for it.

no the dd-5 is 1/2" and the ddc is 3/8 with a stock top...

He wants to run 3/8" in his loop, not 1/2".

I own both pumps and Laing makes both and rates each of them at 50,000 Hrs. MTBF. The DDC-2TPMP is already 3/8" inlet and outlet and has less heat dump and more feet of head than the D5.
I replaced my D5 with the DDC-2TPMP and I have been very happy with the pump.

Will an alphacool top really give a performance boost?

3/8" or 1/2", yes it will. The unrestricted inlet helps a lot AFAIK.

And I'll need to get barbs for it correct?

Not sure. It may come with em, it may not.

The DDC-2TPMP stands for...DDC series 2 w/Tach cable. The MCP355 should be a DDC-2 but I would email the vendor before purchasing and ask that they check the MFR: date on their pumps so that you can confirm that you are getting a recent model. My pump was made 03/06.

I WOULD get the AlphaCool top and a set of 3/8 Highflow G1/4 barbs and use the top inlet and plug the right inlet.

The DDC2 is the equivalent of the 355 then, I guess I will take my luck with it from frozencpu.com. I found the Alphacool for 24.99 there and will just get the pump there as well.

Senater_Cache · Oct 8, 2006

yes do that.

btw the 18w DDC2 will perform pretty much on par with the 23W-24W D5 at less heat dump

Don't forget the 3/8 barbs for the AlphaCool top.

Yeah I am ordering them from DD.

Thus far from DD I have:

Black Ice Micro II 3/8"
Tygon 3603 Tubing 3/8" ID 5/8" OD
Fillport Reservoir w/T 3/8"
Plastic Snap Tubing Clamps 3/8" 58"OD
Delrin Fillport 3/8"
Danger Den High Flow Fittings 3/8"

voigts · Oct 8, 2006

Why are you ordering a Black Ice MicroII? Even people with the little shuttle cases use a 120x1 rad mounted on the back. That rad isn't going to cool very well.
