Recommended D5 Pump Top? Is there a difference?

Hello everyone,

 

I was looking into getting a pump top for my loop since my pump being on the case floor causes a kink in the tubing. 

 

Is there a difference in the different D5 pump tops that exist other than being a single or a double pump top? 

 

If so could you guys explain it to me and recommend me any? This is what I have been looking at the other day.

Thanks!

mostly design and number of inlets and outlets. for example the ek one has on einlet and 2 outlets.

 

the one from bitspower has 3 inlets, 2 (correction) outlets and is compatible with the addtitional pump mod kit or reservoir upgrade kit 250.

 

just pick what suits your needs

D5 tops don't affect head pressure and flow rate as much as DDC tops do, so just pick one that looks nice and has the ports you want.
