Water pump durability

Hi,

 

I have a Swiftech MCP35x in my water cooling system, my question is the following:

 

What is the typical durability of a pump like this one?

 

I make this question because mine has made 4 years I don't want to risk my computer with a old pump. Should I replace it now before it fails, or will I probably be fine for a few more years?

 

Thanks in advance to your answers.

Unless you hear unusual noise from it, it should last a bit longer.

MTBF is 50000 hours, and one year is about 9000 hours if you have it on 24/7, so it will probably last a year or two more.

 

You can replace it with something more durable and powerful like a D5 if you want to be safe.

How long would the pump in an H110 last?

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs

Well they dont give an MTBF, but usually pumps last between 50k and 100k hours
