Go to solution Solved by Ghost,

yeah it comes in different color, but i'll swap the led to match my build anyway

It's an RGB LED in the monsoon one. You won't have to.

 

Be sure to check if the price if for the pump+res or just the res. The pump costs about 60 euros on it's own.

So im planning on liquid cool my system and since i have a corsair c70 i think im gonna need one of those pump/reservoir combo that goes on a 5.25 bay. Any suggestion? is there a way to fit 2 radiators and a pump without occupying the bays in a c70?

The best 5.25" bay that I know of is the Monsoon Series II D5/DDC bay. If you want something slightly cheaper have a look at the XSPC D5/DDC bays.

Feel free to PM for any water-cooling questions. Check out my profile for more ways to contact me.

ive read that the xspc's pump starts making noise after few months, i really like the moonsoon i think it's a bit overpriced here in italy (100euros) but im used to that.

"best" costs money. I specifically recommended the D5/DDC pump reservoirs. The Laing D5 and laing DDC pumps are the most popular water cooling pumps and have a 5 year MTBF, are silent and powerful. The D5 is slightly bigger, runs cooler, is quieter and has better performance in most cases.

Have you tried EKWB's pump/bay res combo?

True. Us EU countries are always getting overcharged. The Monsoon comes in more colors if I'm not mistaken.

Koolance makes some nice models as well - both single and dual bay versions, and both D5 and DDC pump variants

Alphacool seems to some decent pumps/res combos.
