Here are the pros and cons I can come up with when comparing the X4 Photon to the D5 Photon.Pros:1. Cheaper- X4 $100 vs D5 $1552. Port layout- This could go any way but to me it was a pro to have the ports line up more perpendicular unlike the D5 version just for convenience sake.3. Included fan/ radiator mounting bracket- I had to buy an extra part to mount the D5 to a fan/ radiator which just added weight to the already bulky mounting plate4. Sleek design = Lighter in weight- As I just mentioned above referring to the bulky mounting plate on the D5, this pump combo rids of that and replaces it for a thinner piece that also doubles as a fan/ radiator mount.5. Quiet and strong pump- I have not heard of the X4 pump anywhere and there are not much entries for it when I searched on the web, so being in the frontline of reviews for this new pump, I would gladly like to give it its first positive review! As of now the only info for the X4 is provided on the XSPC website. In this pump's description on the website it says that it runs at the constant level 4 equivalent of the D5 vario ("vario" meaning the D5 pump is speed adjustable with which it has 5 levels of speed) BUT it also says that it is more silent than the D5 at that level. I can with most certainty say that this is absolutely TRUE! This pump sounds like the D5 at level 1 or 2, but still pushes water equivalent to the D5 at level 4?! That my people is amazing! I'd say that the only time you will hear this pump is when you are bleeding air out of it OR only when you stick your ear right next to the thing. It really is that quiet and strong!Cons:1. Not speed adjustable- Unlike the D5 which is speed adjustable, the X4 pump only runs at a constant speed, but my last pro point kinda defeats this con.2. Not...a D5...?- This is more of a joke, but before finding about this pump I was under the impression that the D5 was the best pump choice out there and that no other pump was as quiet and strong. That is no longer the case and I can even say that this pump could be the next best one out there today!Conclusion:There you have it folks! I don't have many cons to say about the X4 Photon Reservoir/Pump combo, because to me it is great! Affordable, quiet, strong, and still good looking? What more could you want? Yeah, its not speed adjustable, but who needs that when it already runs well at default. Now I am only about 8 months into building my first water cooled system, so there maybe something I might not get about this pump compared to the longstanding contender, the D5. However, as a purchaser of both, I am for now firmly sided with the X4. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars The unit only needs a sata power but dosent have a pwm control could be good or bad based on how much control you want ... *by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2017* Works as it should no leaks.The unit only needs a sata power but dosent have a pwm control could be good or bad based on how much control you want or dont.. Unit does have two outs and one in ports for your loops. Top has cap for filling but and cause some back splash if not careful. ### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars Just spend some extra money on a better pump if you're planning on cooling more than one ... *by J***L on Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2017* I've had two of these pumps die on me within 2 days of installing them. I don't have a crazy build, but it apparently doesn't have a high enough flow rate to deal with my CPU+1GPU build. Just spend some extra money on a better pump if you're planning on cooling more than one component or have a loop with more than a couple of bends.UPDATE:I just got the D5 Vario version of this res and it works MUCH better for only about 30 bucks more!Also I looked at the marketing material and it's no surprise that I had trouble with this considering the deceptive advertising on the amazon page. THIS IS NOT "COMPARABLE IN PERFORMANCE TO THE D5 VARIO"! This pump output HALF the flow rate that the D5 does. NO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU ARE COOLING MORE THAN ONE COMPONENT! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/41377068-xspc-x4-photon-170-reservoir-pump-combo](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/41377068-xspc-x4-photon-170-reservoir-pump-combo) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-27*
