Pump advice between two EK's

Go to solution Solved by Oshino Shinobu,

Get a PWM D5. It will end up quieter as it will run at a low setting on its own as for your loop it won't need to push hard. There's also the matter of reliability and overall capability. In that sense, the D5 is pretty much the best pump available. 

Hi Guys.
I'm buying parts to watercool my pc and I came accross thees two pumps: EK-XRES 100 SPC-60 MX PWM and EK-XRES 100 Revo D5 PWM

Planning to watercool my GPU and CPU with a Nemesis GTS 360 rad and some Noctua fans.
I am going for a silent build and I am undecided between thees two pumps. The D5 I think is a stronger pump, but maybe for my setup the SPC-60 will be enough. I am saying this because I noticed the SPC-60 is 25 DB on EK website where the D5 is rated at 33 DB.

Which one would you guys go with the setup that i'm planning? Thanks
