Legit ddc pump?

[Nacho Marco Segui]

Is this pump a true ddc unit? http://www.pccomponentes.com/ibercool_bomba_laing_ddc_1t.html I know that they are rebrands but a ddc from ek is 70 euros and this one(Spanish company) is 45.

If its a good one,would it be better to run this one and not a d5,which costs 70 euros? 70 euros+30 for an ek top

Is it bad? I am a total noob when it comes to watercooling

laing DDC pumps can be good and bad.

 

great for small footprint and use, bad as the pump will need some airflow to

prevent overheating (add-on heatsink). the less wattage DDC are great for

a CPU loop, just  no multiple blocks. the 18w pump is great for multiple block

builds (CPU/GPU).
