Pump controller + H320 Pump = functional or not?

[KnightSirius]

Hey all,

 

May be buying a pump controller to control my swiftech Pump (as well for future use when I fully custom watercool a system, just before you start complaining thats overkill for a AIO haha)

Basically the PWM control on my motherboard is schiit, so Pump will randomly ramp up (along with everything else, seperate issue...)

I just want the pump to run at one speed, a quiet one that gives good flow but i don't hear.

So would this

work with my pump?

Honestly I'm out of my league with some of these things and i'd rather know from you guys than buy it and guess....

also optionally if that doesn't work would it be able to run off a fan controller ... such as this !

Again not sure haha

 

Just a quick question all help appreciated thanks guys !

I think you can just get a variable speed d5 pump like this one

notice on the second and third pictures there is a speed controller towards the bottom

 

ek / swiftech might also have something like this but im not sure

this would control my currents pumps speed? not quite understanding this one :3

[shypin]

oh sorry didnt pay attention

thought you were asking about getting a new pump

Oh is that why you needed the PWM controller in the other post?

 

I think he was mentioning to replace or as a pump option, but in terms of control on a pump it will work with the gigabyte board but must be on the CPU header.

Oh yes I know it works with the CPU header, horribly so though. I have extremely little control over the speeds at which it runs (board only gives you the option of silent, normal, and full speed)

but yes that is a reason I'd prefer a PWM controller cause then I could probably control the damn pump with it myself instead of the motherboard doing it.

That is if this pump controller doesn't work with my pump.... which I'm assuming it doesn't since it's not PWM based but DC ... but still not sure

Would you know the answer to that by any chance ?

For those pumps I'm not sure if you can run it on a lower DC voltage like a PWM, other than the fully rate 12V on the power lines, if I recall it's not exactly good for most pumps if it's lower than 12V.

 

For the Gigabyte board it gives finer control in their EasyTune software I believe:

Problem is it makes my overclock unstable, for whatever reason. I hate those programs that mess with bios settings in windows... but maybe they updated it i suppose i'll try it again.

That's strange I've never heard of a software that would cause overclocking instability.

Hadn't realized you could only install CERTAIN components of the app center ! When i installed it, I guess it auto-installed everything for me...

I think I just fixed my problem. Now I have a software fan controller, that's been there the whole time.... :rolleyes:

 

Also everyone from here if you want to help me find a damn case
