Nice to see some QP140mm series on the horizon. Will you be making 140mm rads with reservoirs too?

Really nice lineup! I'm thrilled. Especially with the competition for GTs. :up:
Any chance we see 3/4x140mm rads this year? And also interested on 140mm fans...
Nice new line up. I can forsee a white swiftech sponsored build...
Swiftech has always supported its customers. One of the main reasons we have a policy for RMA is because we can't be held responsible for poorly designed pump top. And I am sorry to say that but no longer than a few weeks ago, I had 2 customers calling/emailing me about an after market tops which had not been machined properly. the pump cavity was too shallow and the impeller wouldn't spin. Our policy has been applied in the most decent manner and I can't recall voiding the warranty of anyone with a Swiftech pump because he upgraded to a 35X top.
PWM: As I said in one of the post above, you get RPM signal from both pumps with this splitter - not just one. Black connectors have been requested for next production.
This may sound dumb but I want to ask anyway...will the MCP35X pump top work with standard MCP350 or MCP355 pumps as well? I don't want to buy two MCP35x pumps if I don't have to and my 355 pumps are working great at the moment.
Thanks
Yes all DDC's work with MCP35X and MCP35X2 tops.
The cpu block with built in pump could be a nice feature for adding a little more power to your loop on limited space :)
stephenswiftech: IIRC from stated in previous threads swiftech warranty was voided if user disassembles pump, be it reason of cleaning it or top replacement, with no mention that swiftech aftermarket tops are OK-ed exception for it, as in even if it's MCP350 or MCP355 disassembled to put MCP35X-H on it. If you don't recall warranty voided unofficially when users upgrade to swiftech tops de facto, imho you guys should state that officially de jure, to at least partially assure customers, who otherwise advise eg. koolance for it's more relaxed RMA policy.
P.S.
So nothing about possibility of 140mm swiftech fans? :)
Thanks for the reply, I guess I will leave the delrin as it is then hehe
Any cooling solution for the new dual top?
I'd like to get the dual top + pumps and some cooling for them aswell... I don't want to do some modding to cool those!
For the reasons I mentioned above we have to have this policy but practically there are cases where we have accommodated our customers. We have been thinking of different ways to tweak this policy. We've discussed making an exception for customers who bought an MCP35X in the past and who are upgrading to MCP35X2 for example.
We still encourage our customers to contact us even if they voided their warranty.
Hey Stephen and Gabe - Good stuff gents. Try to get out all these nice goodies though before the Mayan Long Count calendar ends :) My lab is hoping to take advantage of new Swiftech schwag before the solar flares erupt.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Stephen & Gabe. . .I (and my meager bank account) hate you!, way too much good stuff coming out. :up:
Stephen, good thing you mentioned those fittings are 100% Swiftech, because my first thought when I saw them told me otherwise.
When data is released on the Apogee Drive II, could it include flow rate and temp comparisons to either version of a D-Tek Fuzion? These are the most current blocks I run due to their relative low restriction and decent performance.
...and it looks like I only have a couple more months (at most) of beating you guys over the head to release those 140mm rads. :cheer: Probably shouldn't have made that page viewable to the public when you did. ;)
i was lookin at getting a koolance dual 140, butt if swif releases pump/rad/res combo 140mm i would so get that instead.
for gpu loop would make so much moar simple
not really? doesnt nzxt have fan with that design, gt's have the "best" title and its gona be really hard to steal that away from em.
@ Stephenswiftech: Luv the look of the new goodies, can hardly wait.
a Question though, or more of a suggestion: I really like the old ApogeeDrive, 2 major design-flaws though were fixed barbs and limited options available on the base-plate.
With the new ApogeeDrive II, I notice you have compression-fittings - would we be able to replace them with something else, i.e they screw into std G1/4 threads, or, fixed?
Secondly, it would be a great idea to have the baseplate as a replaceable plate, so this can be changed 1-2 years down the line to accommodate new socket-types. Would make a great product exceptional, I for one would get 3 or 4 of you guys, as you simply cannot beat the simple efficiency and compactness of this design :)
Both the Apogee Drive I and II have base plates that can be replaced. We just never made an upgraded base plate for Apogee Drive I. Nothing is preventing us from doing that in the future for Apogee Drive II.
Apogee Drive II comes in standard with G1/4" thread on both inlet and outlet. For the purpose of this rig, we used Compression Fittings as we also wanted to show case our new fitting line. It also shows that the product is compatible with compression fittings which is anything but obvious with a large block installed on motherboards with restrictive keep-outs.
Yep, what I meant, as it originally came with s775 and AMD plates/chambers.Quote:
We just never made an upgraded base plate for Apogee Drive I.
Would be nice instead of an integrated base-plate/chamber, to simplify it and have simple mounting-plate, like on waterblocks. Unscrew it, mount new plate, and you're done. That way, new socket-support would be a lot simpler. Is this the way it's done? If yes, I can make plates for my S771 Xeons in the Blackbird.
Luv the G1/4 fittings, now I can use my 7/16" tubing with it, great! Will certainly get 2 for my Blackbird setup, and one for Macho-mini, and one for the Wife's rig.
Yeah it's pretty much what I've designed here. The bracket you see on the picture is a standard 775/1155/1366/2011. You never have to remove it, if you run an AMD CPU, you just install the AMD bracket on "top of it". No water block dis-assembly required here. :)
That's great, Stephen, thanx - I will make S771 plates then, and this will further simplify the loop in my dual-Xeon BB setup, and free up the 5.25" slot where the current Koolance RP401X2 with dual 3.25's are located - I need this space to mount my internal SCSI Tape-drive....
This new drive would be the ideal choice :flowers:
Great work btw, and appreciate your comments.
For those of us with AMD processors, can we get a shot of the ApogeeDrive II with the AMD plate installed? Just curious what it looks like and how it works.
What's the ETA on pricing or is it all based on release dates?
I saw a lot of ST new products last night as Gabe was at the poker tournament with a beautiful custom PC
Very nicely done and unfortunately he stayed close to it all night otherwise......:hrhr:
Any chance to get some pictures of all the products? I mean, decent pictures because the one you link in the first post is as useful as none ;)
