Good work, can't wait for the next sections. |

With a half decent pump however, all the others will outperform it, especially on i7 chips. | |

hmm, interesting. i have been looking at the D-tek Fuzion and the apogee GTZ. knowing that this quad core insert does nothing but hurt performance i think i am going to get the apogee GTZ.

^Your really moving along mate. I hope you keep it updated, as this will be a big help for a water cooling loop that i might do for my next build.
So far, this guide is great, keep it up.

Nice work! I've got a sticky on another board that takes a lot of following up... I think I gave up on it... A lot to follow in the LSx world..
Anyway... I like the rez section.. Gives me ideas on how to adapt my system when I get a new case.. (Growing out of the Antec 900)
One thing I would like to advise, tho; 1/2" tubing on a D-Tek Fusion CPU block is a VERY tight fit when you go to install the clamps..

To note, the type of clamp really makes a difference. I use worm drive clamps and they have very thin band. Plastic clamps are generally thicker and may not fit. Also to note, the D-tek Fuzion has trouble with Compression Fittings as the space between the barbs is not very thick.
I'll be covering this more in depth in the fittings section. | |
