Leakshield multiple pumps, can't add more than 1 extra

Dienstag, 9. September 2025, 16:43

I have a Leakshield and currently using 3 x Alphacool VPP Apex pumps (soon to be 5 total). I am aware the Leakshield cannot make my system leak-proof when using multiple pumps, that's not my concern. My issue is I see no way to configure the Leakshield page in Aquasuite to have exactly how many pumps I have in my system. It only has a checkbox to tell it you have more than one, and then it just assumes you only have 2 total. This is reflected in the pump pressure reading which is just the main pump head x 2. For a more accurate reflection of the loop's actual configuration, I would like to be able to configure Aquasuite and the Leakshield to understand exactly how many pumps are in my loop, and the choice to configure each one to exact specifications as right now the software just assumes they are all duplicates of the first pump. Even though in my case they will all be identical pumps, it just seems like bad practice to not have this fully fleshed out.

I guess they have to draw the line somewhere with how exotic of a setup they intend to support.

It got me curious about your setup. what kind of build are you making to require 3, let alone 5 pumps in series?

Require is probably not the word, it's more of a "why not" kind of thing. I have CPU, RAM and GPU blocks, with 4 radiators, two Koolance QD3T pairs, and probably something like 5 or 6 meters of tubing in my loop since my radiators are mounted outside my case. With all 3 pumps at 100%, flow rate is only 243 liters per hour. Plenty of flow, if I wanted to tolerate the awful pump noise. At 50% pump speed, flow is around 180 L/h, but still kind of noisy and it's starting to approach flow rates I'm not happy with. At 0% pump speed, my system is totally silent but flow rate is only 112 L/h and that's why I'll be adding 2 more pumps. Hoping they bring me closer to that 180 L/h rate at 0% PWM, or 300+ L/h at 100% just for fun benchmark runs. I have a Ryzen 9950x3D and RTX 5090 so the coolant can get pretty hot intra-loop, and higher flow rates help keep all components getting the same colder temperature water, not to mention help ever so slightly reduce component to water deltas.
