Thermaltake Pacific PR22-D5 Plus Addressable RGB LED 5-Speed Adjustable D5 Pump/Reservoir Combo 3-Port G 1/4" Thread Tt LCS Certified Cooling CL-W187-PL00SW-A

The reservoir is watertight, assuming you make the connections properly, and the pump is quiet on its highest setting. That's the most important things to me. The inlet tube makes sure air trapped at the top of the reservoir doesn't get entrained into the water flow and circulated out into the system. It's a common feature on reservoirs, but some don't have a long enough tube. The mounting is a little clunky, I mount it to the floor of the case and I don't need the vertical mount bracket sticking out the back and making it look part finished. The pump wiring is long and colorful, which doesn't go with the black wiring on the cap. The pump/reservoir comes with a USB hub with another Molex connector, seems like they could have done something to reduce the wiring. It also comes with a micro USB cable for connecting to the motherboard. Fortunately my motherboard has plenty of USB connectors, and I don't need any of the conventional USB headers, so this wasn't a problem. In my case the pump drives water through two water blocks, two large radiators, and an inline mesh filter rapidly enough to keep the exit temperatures from the water blocks down to 10C over ambient. If I need another reservoir/pump this would be high on my list. I bought it on sale, so it was an easier choice at that time.

First, I'll say I do not like Thermaltake. Their software for the RGB is annoying. With that being said, their hardware is exceptional. I have been building PC's and using Thermaltake products for many years. This pump in particular has been in two different builds over the past year and half. It runs strong, is super quiet, and I can trust that it is going to last a long time. In the current machine it is pumping through 2 360mm radiators and no problem with flow.

Excellent build quality and operation. Non PWM so you'll have to manually set the desired pump rpm. Kind of tall so it fills in a bit of that unused space. Just beware that the pump speed selector is located on the bottom of the assembly and that could make it tough to change rpm. Flows great, runs quiet. Very happy with it so far.

make them. Which is a plus.Wish I got a laing because theh are the best but this Goulding one seems to be working out very. Great pump over all. The rgb wires on mine also ripped because TT did a terrible job at this part and didn't seal or glue them into the housing. They just let a pair of wires soldered to the top very very very thin like 24-26ga wires, which is junk. Bet this is more TT than goulding/laing.The pump is strong and powerful and to the people who wanted a better pump speed selection location. You are ignorant in pumps That isn't how it works, Laing and Goulding pumps work like that. Most 1 block and 1 rad designs only need level 3 to 3.5 at most. 4 if you have a gpu block and 5 if you have 2 rads. A gpu block and cpu block, hell even 5 seems like a but much.Anywhoo, I love the pump. If I had to say one thing I wish the top came off so I can give it a good scrubing when it gets dirty and so I can burp my water easier and use bigger bottles to pour it all in.Not sure how people jeep having theirs die? The pump portion is made by a two reliable and high quality pump makers in the aquarium industry with some chinese company making the rest of the housing. I will say though the 12v plug is absolutely trash quality. Like it's so bad you need to align the pins into a molex connector cause they won't lie up and the molex plug is made out of milk jug plastic.Overall this pump had a great idea with bad execution on the wiring and rgb options.TT makes good cases but from seeing this I'll never buy anything TT that is electronic other than their cases they are becoming lower in quality.

They work pretty good, i will say, they dont seem to work as well as my EK D5's and have no way to adjust the speed/flow (EK ones did). For the price, they are great. They make water move from A to B. Now, the downside is the massive lack in design forward thinking. There is 1 port on the bottom, 2 on the top. Unless you are adding a split (Y or T) for drainage, there is no train port on these. Dumb. Total lack of forward thinking in the design. I dont want a massive T/Y splitter on my lines for drainage because all those extra parts cost A LOT. Do i want to burn 4-6 MORE parts to connect random lines that really shouldnt need to be there? No, no i dont. As for the RGB, its ok at best. Lots of little design lighting but in the end, the single LEDS are terrible. Maybe if you are using some pastel color stuff, but, in the end, its not effective. The full colors are great, sound detection is OK at best. Barely lights up, again, using a single LED doesnt even show up so why do it? There is nothing really subtle about the lighting ... just lack of lighting lol. They are ok, nothing great, nothing bad, its a solid "meh".Update: Already have MASSIVE vibrations in these pumps. Its one of the most aggravating issues because its making the ThermalTake case just rattle and vibrate and its horrible. I have taken the entire system apart 4 or 5 times now to tighten screws and do everything possible to remove the vibrations but nothing helps. The functionality of the pumps is "whatever". They work, they are not as good as my EK pumps (still). The software gives me so many issues. Rebooting the system causes the USB controller to no longer be detected. Few more reboots, then it works fine (very very common issue with the software). #1 issue is this intense vibration. 100% would not use this companies pumps/setups ever again. Dropped about 10k on the entire build, will go with EK next time (was a full EK system prior to going this route due to shipping issues)Update 2: 6/10 second pump started the same thing; now needs replaced as well. lol. Replaced first one with my original EK products, 0 issues. Looks like the second is coming out of retirement as well. Never will i buy Thermaltake products again in my life.

Works great and quiet. had one small hiccup few days after installing. pump stopped working tho was no big problem took pump out and cleaned the ceramic ball in it. Have had 0 problems since.
