I use a 1250 and it's COMPLETELY noiseless.
It's not that difficult to achieve.
For those who do not believe me: contact me for a "live" demo...:D
I have to touch the 1250 to be sure it's on.

CD :)

I used to use the Idra, it's big ****, it rattles, it leaks (if you want pics, feel free to ask...)

Since I installed my 1250, it's a dream :D

What do you mean by "more difficult to mod to 1/2 fittings", they have both an outlet of 1/2" and an inlet of 3/4"...?

The Idra is 25 Watts, the 1250 is 28 Watts.

If you look at the quality/price: Eheim rockz...
Anyway, my $$$$ PC is in the hands of a pump, so I better like it to be a quality pump...

CD :)

since the shop where i was going to order doesnt sell the idra's anymore, i'll have to go with a eheim 1250 i think..

and by the more difficult to mod i mean that i didn't see any guide (yeah want to be sure it fits well ;) ) to mod the eheim to 1/2 fittings.
those pics are more then welcome ;)


btw did you recieve you're cascade allready? temps?

Wise decision to go with the 1250...:D

Here's what I had to do to make my Idra stop leaking...


This is what I used to silence my 1250:


By heating your 1/2" tubing in boiling water you should be able to put it over the 3/4" inlet of the 1250.
I used 20mm (3/4") PVC to connect the inlet to my 3-tap fill & bleed system.


No, I didn't receive my Cascade yet. I'm on a waiting list.
Cathar told me he would recontact me in 3-4weeks when he had one available for me (should be one of these days...)
BTW, do I know you from another forum?

CD :)

thx for the pics :) , hopefulle the Tygon can do that.
with regular pvc it was almost impossible to stretch it alot.

i thought i saw you posting on B2OC (if my memory serves me well) that you ordered one.
i payed mine yesterday so i hope the transaction goes well (first time for me to do an international transaction) and then its waiting time ;)

I'll get my White Water in a few days :D :D :D

And I'm confident about international orders (I ordered in Canada), sincerely, I've go more trouble three years ago with a Belgian shop (which I won't name)...........

Hey Quarantine, I just wanted to let you know that when you use the Cascade block you'll B way better of with the 1250 cause that's what the Cascade is all about "Huge water pressure on the Block" this way it cools better!!

PS: The Cascade is the best block on this planet so good choice!!
PS: What kind off rad are you going to use!! Heatercore, F2, BIX2, ... ?

I suggest the Thermochill 120.3 :D :D :D :D :D I've got a 2 Hi-flow wb (Graph-O-Matic and D-Tek FSB northbridge waterblock) and a White Water.............. and I think (haven't put it to work yet (watercase has to be started)) the 1048 I have won't be too bad..... Or will it?

thx , was planning on getting an 1250 (don't have the money at this moment though, next week i will ;) ) an eheim 1048 gives 1° or so differencte but thats with only the cascade (and i want blocks for gpu and chipset also)
the cascade rocks; it has to arrive tomorrow (expected it today allready) read the whole thread on OCAU , and it convinced me truly.

and as radiator i'm not sure: a dual Heattransformer ( http://www.world-of-pc.de/product_in...oducts_id/2100 ) (new or secondhanded) or i'm going to keep my heatercore from the yunkyard

got my cascade today , i'm verry looking forward to test it :grin:

some crappy pics i took
