Alphacool Eisdecke DDC Brass Top availability

[diablozoll]

Hello!
I have a question: is this DDC pump top discontinued? I cannot find it anywhere only second-hand for astronomical prices. The acryl version is readily available, which is probably what I will go with, but I was looking to build an RGB-less full dark build. I know there is a bigger top in black, but unfortunately I am restricted to 62x62mm footprint for the pump+top.

Okay, this will definitely will be available then? I want to buy one to and could wait until then.

I wrote an email last week and the support said it is EOL and will not be continued. I am just wondering..

 

[Eddy]

Oh.. Support is right. Orders are canceled and we put it on the EOL list. Sorry, as i took a look, it was not on the EOL list. Must happen in the last days.

Why do you always cancel the good products with no competition? That sucks..

 

[Eddy]

Because the sales was really bad. And if you are not able to sell enough, the product makes no sense.

 

[thethinker]

Okay, but I don't get it. It's the best top out there and everybody is recommend it but it's not available anywhere.

 

[Eddy]

Well.. like i said... sales was not worth to talk about it. People are talking a lot.... but trust me... they dont talk about the best selling products. ;-) That is sometimes very interesting.

At least the acrylic version is still available, it is the exact same top but not black (unfortunately).

 

[thethinker]

yeah, and it's not brass, so... It's a complete different product. I would recommend to nobody to not use pmma/acrylic parts in the water cooling system because of DAU situations. There are many more chemical substances that destroy acrylic. I would recommend delrin or similar resilient materials.
