Urgh that top looks like a cheap plastic toy. Honestly, whats up with all the "cross beams". Why couldn't they simply mold it into a solid "block". Would be much better.

answer in the quote below
All the ridges are to provide mechanical strength. Each side of the mold has deep cavities to create the part thickness. Remember in injection molding uniform wall thickness is king. Then it looks like they glue a couple covers on the top for some reason, probably to keep it from looking like an egg crate and to add branding. The overhang on the outlet is merely to provide enough structure to support the G1/4 tap.
I don't get this...wouldn't solid acrylic be stronger than any kind of fancy ridged egg crate structure?All the ridges are to provide mechanical strength.

How is injection molding better than milling out of a solid block? Is it cheaper? I must say cheaper is not really in line with TFC philosophy...
Well if you put it in the right place you would just get the glow effect.

I gotta be honest, that second set of pictures that you put up... the pump actually looks pretty good with what appears to be a softer more diffused glow to the tops. I still think that the tops look a bit cheap - I know that they are not because of the various mold flanges and what not but maybe there is some way to smooth that look out a bit? Maybe tone down the flanges some how. I want to know the flow results as well before I make final judgement.

Wow! I think we found a bigger fanboi than RRR.
Bentleya, I'll wait for testing but I expect it to be near the top on flow but average or below on head pressure. I also don't like the cheap resin they used to mold it with, looks very frail. ...and those 5.25 mounts are joke, I see many ppling about them breaking.
Circles SucQ!
If your annoyed by sigs telling you to put things in your sig, then put this in your sig
Bribery won't work on me...just say NO to AT!!!
I believe the ppl here are giving bentleya a hard time with all the statements. Tho' most are probably said for a good reason.
Bentleya, I do see why you are "protecting" this top. I mean, who wouldn't back up for a sponsor. I would happily do the same thing if I was to be sponsored. But can you honestly say that this thing looks good? Everything seem to be so, I don't know, poorly done. Why couldn't they have put more material in the 5,25" bay "beams" for example?.
You gotta' give the people what they want. I would suggest you to get Feser to read this thread and have them make some changes to the top in order to make it have a bit more quality look to it. So far, most of Fesers products have been great so it would be nice if they could keep that up.![]()

Just another DDC top.
Seriously, why put a product into an already saturated market, a market where the pump tops are that close in performance none of them really offer an advantage.
The last company to actually release anything the consumer has been asking for, is BitsPower.
If it ain't watercooled, I don't wanna know.
bits power does my head in :p lol most there product other companys make as well now and are cheaper, fat boys, DD do them cheaper, compession fittings Feser do them cheaper
So on that what do you want feser to make?
say what you want them to do?
ideas?
what do you guys want?

That one is just plain ugly :s If that give me 1c better temps, I'll still go with another top, cause that one is just to ugly.. And will most likely be feser priced anyway..

I would personally like a second line of products focused heavily on quality and not on glitz and bling. Never mind the acrylic. Make some products in acetal.
Look at the quality of BP. Go one step further. I myself don't mind paying the price if the products are of such quality.
How about a radiator that needs no pre-cleaning. Shrouds included and already installed. Barbs already installed. Fully plug and play.
i have to say i wasn't keen on their tube, but i like their coolant and their comp fittings. Oh and their rads look lovely - defo my next buy.
I will reserve judgement on the DDC top till it's been reviewed throughly

But DD still get from us...and no Clone...All the price are the same with our MSRP...
But Fxxxx stolen our PAT. design and always announce they have theirs...
If they can make their own design...everyone respect...but I never have that news and never see that till now..I think evreyone in their country know that..
Only ask sample and then make copy...that's all.
of course...they did colne and make it "cheaper"..Ya it's cheaper..and clone one need to be "cheaper". What they call cheaper is to make others know they can make compression fittings..that's all...But they really know how?
We have known they will have DDC top..because they asked one sample form one company in UK and then we all know they will come out this one...
Like the RAD is from their supplier, cost cheaper under USD 60 in four but market price is really cheaper? I think there will be a new brand will also do the same products like them and come form the same quality and cost..but that new brand will be cheaper...hehe.
