EK is far too run of the mill, you should see the Bitspower one Ive got coming

Wouldnt put TSW wheels on a Ferrari would ya

well TTL thers a saying I use,

"you go with what you know", obviously you have access to many other top end parts and for me being relitivly new to water cooling, I cant fault the new gen EK blocks at all, the ones for the 5870's are just awsome and the full block for the RE2 is magic, completly non restrictive and do a great job.

You, on the other hand, are far more knowlegable (not sure if thats a real word) and besides that Ive pre paid using paypal ... lol so Im commited, if Ive made a bad decision, well its to late now. TBH I thought EK were the first to develop one.

I guess I was wrong, NVM as long as the temps are right Im not to fussed about the apearence as my rig is all about function and not window sided led bling look at me style, if you get my drift.

well heres a pic of the block Im waiting for,

http://www.ekwaterblocks.com/shop/bl...-acetal-1.html

as you can see its far to run of the mill for a nice board like RE3, I mean who would want this nasty looking thing screwed to thier M/B

never did find the bitspower one, maybe TTL could show us where to find it, the Bits power site is a bit odd half the links dont work,

BP website is proper poo. Ive just email BP to see if there are any oficial pictures yet as all the blocks Ive seen so far have been beta's.
