Alphacool Apex VPP D5 Pump/Res Combo

The Alphacool Apex VPP combines a D5 pump with a matching acetal pump top in a single unit. It is designed for custom water-cooling loops that use the popular D5 form factor. The motor uses a ceramic axle and external coils to reduce vibration and power draw. Speed is managed through a standard 4-pin PWM connector.

Builders using D5 tops and reservoirs

This combo suits builders who want a pre-matched pump and top for a D5-based loop. The SATA power connection requires an available lead from the power supply. Builders whose chassis only provides Molex power connectors will need an adapter. Users who prefer a standalone pump to pair with a different top style should look elsewhere.

4-pin PWM speed control and monitoring

The pump connects to a motherboard or fan controller via a 4-pin PWM header. This allows the system to adjust pump speed automatically and read the RPM signal for monitoring software. The cable length is 50cm. The acetal top measures 80 x 80 x 40mm, or 83 x 80 x 87mm with the stand fitted.

Questions about this item

Will the 4-pin PWM connector let my motherboard control the VPP755 pump speed alongside my existing D5 loop?

Yes, the 4-pin fan connector carries a PWM signal so the motherboard or an external controller can adjust the pump speed and read the RPM signal.

How can I verify the pump is running correctly once installed?

Connect the 4-pin PWM header to the motherboard or a controller; the RPM read-out will confirm the ceramic-axle motor is spinning at the set speed.

Does the box include the acetal reservoir top and mounting stand, or do I buy them separately?

The combo ships with the D5 pump, the acetal pump top (80 x 80 x 40 mm) and the stand (83 x 80 x 87 mm with stand), plus a 50 cm SATA power cable.
