The barbs are what allows you to connect the tubing to the blocks.
After taking a closer look at the EK blocks i directed you to, they only come with 1/2" barbs. The XSPC X20 kits come with 10/8mm tubing, so they wont be compatable without purchasing some new barbs.
Your best bet would be to contact watercoolingshop, and ask them if they have any 10/8mm barbs that are compatable with the EK water blocks. New barbs will probably add an extra £5 or so to your order.

Hi Steven,
The EK waterblocks use a G1/4" thread so you can easily replace the fittings with 10/8mm compression fittings.
You need the product below. (2 for each block)

Sound right?

Most likely the Alphacool Xtreme Pro, unless I decide on having NoL build a phase change unit for me.
