CPU block?

[mrapoc]

Whats generally the "best" choice of cpu block looking at performance, but also more importantly value for money

as was the dtek fuzion

i dont want to spend £40 or whatever for like 2c difference

XSPC Delta V3...

XSPC Delta V3...

Great value for money block, I went for the GTZ because of the mounting system.

Yeah, I'm gonna go for the GTZ myself but the V3 is very tempting just as it's much cheaper.

I've got a GTZ and it's fantastic, value for money it has to be the XSPC though, especially for i7!

 

[tinytomlogan]

GTZ is restrictive, get a XSPC and a back plate and you are srted matey.

XSPC Delta V3...

Good value but not the best performer. Fuzion 2 or Apogee GTX are both better for hardcore performance, CPU temp wise.

From what I understand though, the Delta V3 has great flow & pressure drop characteristics making it a great choice for low powered (quieter) pumps, or loops with lots of blocks (vga, chipset, etc).

To be honest, I'd go with the Delta V3 personally if I were to go WC right now though.

If the delta v3 isn't the greatest performer, its certainly good enough for me. Mine's got my idles in the high twenties (case ambient) and loads in the mid forties (with intel burn or whatever its called). And that's just about the toastiest chip ever made.

Surely you mean GTZ for hardcore performance?

Was just about to say the same... The V3 would be better than the GTX.. GTZ just nips the V3 though.

But then again, it's a trade off for the 1 degree or the extra flow.. Oh yeah plus the extra wedge.

 

[tinytomlogan]

meh arguing over 1c. Just buy what either you like the look of, or the price of imho

The enzotech sapphire rev a is supposed to be good.

 

[mrapoc]

It will be with a ddc ultra + alphacool top so quite high pressure iirc

Gpu and cpu only planned atm
