Pump / reservoir decision

[Homer Simpson]

I have been doing some research and I've narrowed my pump/reservoir decision down to two items. The thermaltake PR22-D5 and the ek EK-XRES 140. I have read as much good as bad about them both and would like to get some opinions from people who might be familiar with these two items.

And help would be greatly appreciated.

EK is the "top Shelf" of water cooling basically. Go with the EK over Thermaltake any and everyday.

Max Flow = EK , Max Head = TT Quality and Reliability= EK all the way..

I've been ordering all my parts for my water-cooling build. And I went with EK for the lot. Plenty of the well known water-coolers praise their products (and I could do a lot worse than EK), and they seem to be a great company to support.

 

As far as I'm concerned you want to go with the best you can afford when it comes to dealing with water in your PC.

 

In short: EK

Thanks for the help. I'm using Ek blocks but got tempted by the shiny tt res. 

You pretty much confirmed what I was leaning towards. 

 

Thank you
