hi folks new to water cooling decided to get rid of my jet turbine in favor of a more soothing on the ears option so being new i got a TT silent water kit that was fine (after some major modding got a masstige case "bay dream" in the uk had to chop a big hole where the 80/120 fan on the back goes to a mount the rad on the back (couldent get it anyware else fouled the side panel ) and the water block brackets dont fit am2 (will mabe do a thread on how i modded the bracket if anybodys interested) anyhow after that bug bit me and i installed a flow guage new uv tubing fresh fluid and a m3 aquabay thinking the that would be the primary tank and the copper on the rad a second cooling stage but seems the pump is not much use flaky at best seems to be an air lock but no bubbles wierd :mellow: any sugestions to a beter pump ?

Try some punctuation and try again man, that barely makes any sense.

I see your actual question seems to be what is a good pump, I recommend the Laing D5, best pump I've ever owned in my liquid cooling adventures.

What size of fittings/tubing does the big water use?

Popular choices of pump would be a Laing DDC or a cheap and cheerful CSP-Mag 2. Both are small and powerfull.

Did you make sure to prime the pump as detailed (http://www.wizdforums.co.uk/showpost.php?p=105317&postcount=8) in the thread below yours?
Ah, just noticed that this thread is older than that one...
