D5 VPP755 or something different?

[BotDamian]

Hello,

I'm building a cheaper custom watercooling and no, I don't want the AiO garbage.

Is there anything good than the VPP755? I don't want to buy a cheap pump because it's cheap, but I'm not sure if it makes sense to pay 70 bucks for a pump where it costs about 1/3 of the whole watercooling loop.

 

CPU, GPU and 140x4 (560) rad.

It is based on a D5 base but it's not the same as the standard D5. There are some unique caveats such as the speed control option vs PWM and impeller design.

The V3 is the newest revision of this pump.  The V1 and V2 had reliability issues (you can search all over for them, they're everywhere, including a long thread on overclock.net and reddit).
