I would to go with something like a DDC pump ideally with a heatsink since they can get quite warm, or a compact D5 pump res unit like this:

Hey guys

 

I was just wondering what people would recommend as a rough estimate of a pump would be on a loop.

I'm planning a compact build in the raijintek aeneas and was wondering what sort of pump would be good for the space, unfortunately I am not experienced with pumps in this regard, and i'm not sure what would be adequate.

 

Here's what I've got in mind: 

 

2x240mm radiators.

1x Cpu Block.

1x Gpu Block.

 

I was thinking of a compact pump/res combo like the XSPC ION or similar thing, but im not sure if it will be enough for an extra rad and a gpu block.

 

Any suggestions? 

 

M.B

 

Golly, I sure hope that my internets are all in a safe place...

i always advocate for the D5 if that is not 'compact' enough. the DDC 18w would be best, the 12w can go the distance, but there is a path for better.

 I went with a 12w DDC with a res top in the end as I found it on sale. Ta for the help.

Golly, I sure hope that my internets are all in a safe place...
