    Flowrates V2



    the xspc top +microreservoir performed rather ok, but there is a better solution.


    the favorite(xspc reservoirtop), will stay another day when the new pumps come in


    my new stantart setup(ekv2+microres)



    the bar units is in liter per minute...gpm is sorta misleading for me..

    loop:

    res==>pump==>pump2==>waterblock==>flowmeter==>rad= =>res



    for the extreme...



    single pump was around


    * all three will be tested, then retested with the newer pumps
    * silver coils + true silver barbs + acryllic top

    thanks for the effort!

    Would you kindly also try XSPC Res top connected in series with XSPC top ? Just curios about the double top hype.

    I must say, I do rather like the look of a single MCRes on top of a standard DDC top. It looks nice. The asymmetry is appealing.

    What sucks about the restop and the MCres is that they are difficult to clean internally.

    Which results are which?

    (granted, they're all close enough that the performance difference is tiny)

    I can see the different flow rate indicators, but can't quite follow which is which. Any more clues?

    Honda, withe the male female extender from koolance can a BP comp fitting work on the bottom of the mcres v2? I couldn't use one because the hole is recessed.....

Much more volume, and much easier to work with when filling the loop. The new V2 Micro Res is much easier to work with than the older Micro res I used with the side ports.

    Nice, I like that side mount set, I think I might use that idea..

    Have you used the D plugs? I'd just be a little worried the vibrations and res might work the plugs apart.

    I was thinking of a rotary T or something. I've got one MCres, but thinking of buying one more and swapping out my last D5 with a DDC 3.25 whenever those become readily available...Maybe try out Eddy's new V2 DDC top as well.
