This is what the Laing D4 (DangerDen 12V) Pump sounds like

good point greenman. i forgot part of my problem when i initially set my w/c stuff up was space. the 650 is a bit smaller than the mcp600 if i'm not mistakein?!!?
 
It is a bit longer but smaller in all other dimensions. I have a MCP600 and would not be able to fit the 650/D4 in the same place.
 
Can anyone compare a CSP750x2 to the MCP 600 for sound? Which is quieter?

I STILL havent bought a pump and I have it narrowed down to these 2. I had lost interest for a few weeks.

I'm also curious about the noise and pump results. I want QUIET, and preferrably at 12V. The MCP600 is discontinued (at least that's what the linked site says), so I'm not sure why people are still talking about it.

I own a nearly unused Mag3 that, after running in a closed loop test for a day, convinced me to hold off on water cooling until I found a quieter pump. It was about that time when the 12V pumps started making ground, and still I read about noise issues.

The same basic pump that was the MCP600 is still available under the "AquaXtreme 50Z-DC12" brand name, and can be purchased here:

People just refer to it as the MCP600 though, because that's the name that everyone is most familiar with.
 
In summary, ways to further quiet down a muffled D4:

- Put it on a Rheobus (will hurt performance)

- "incapsulate" it somehow? (how?)

- Make your case "soundproof"

Others?
 
hmm...damn, wanted this pump for my w/c setup, maybe itll be quieter if i just have my side panel on, although SHOULD be alot quieter then my current air cooling setup...ugh sounds like an airport on full speed, anything should sound better than this :)
 
I'm a real fan of Swiftech stuff, and a real fan of quiet. The MCP600 came out and I replaced my MCP300, didn't have any problems with my MCP300 as some did, but wanted a quieter pump. The I cannot hear my MCP600 unless my head is about 6" from it. Then The MCP650 comes out. I almost bought one to run a dual loop system, glad I didn't. Whats up Swiftech? Whats up with all the noise. Most water cooling people want quiet? I really can't figure it out. Must be a cost/reliability issue? My MCP600 is running strong though, since Jan. '04. I don't care for the idea of buying a MCP650 just to hook it to a controller and loose performance to reduce the noise. Guess I'll wait until the next, MCP700 maybe??
