Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Bill's right. Professionally painted rads have barely any paint down in between the fins. But they're painted everywhere else because they look pretty ugly out of manufacturing otherwise.
Besides, everyone knows spray painting something red makes it go faster! ;)

The D-5 is a very reliable pump, more so than the DDC. If you're in critical need of a backup, I would keep a new D-5 on hand rather than running it in tandem. Temp sensors on our controllers or via BIOS, or a flow meter are already good safety features to shutdown the system if the pump dies...
Yes, I work for Koolance. All of your assumptions are correct. I think some might be hesitant to do this because it increases height of the reservoir, and they might want to select a nozzle base and reservoir from two different manufacturers (which probably won't work together). Otherwise, it...
Just to clarify, that Skinneelabs review is COV-PMP450A, which is the older model. COV-RP450 is the current nozzle base with some internal improvements and allows for direct attachment of reservoirs.

This is actually a pretty accurate example. We've also seen 3rd-party pumps and rads with manufacturing debris and miscellaneous "plastic bits" which have physically stopped pumps. The filter is intended for those situations. It is not intended to filter biological contaminants or other fine...
(?) We sell both aluminum and copper radiators in every size on our website. In fact, we offer more copper versions than aluminum (optimized for both low and high air flow). If you purchase a pre-built system like the Exos or ERM, you should definitely not mix bare copper in the loop. Copper rad...
You might be surprised. We have heat transfer and pressure drop data available under the "Other Data" buttons on those products' web pages.
Plate heat exchangers are definitely for specific applications. For example, you could use tap water on the external loop without worrying about causing...
