Looking for Bay Reservoir, Recommendations?

[SUPERFLY013]

Hi everyone, am looking for a bay reservoir to but in my CM Stryker case to match a blue and white build and was unsure of which one to use.
I like this one but there are no reviews on it and didn't know if it was any good or not.http://www.frozencpu.com/products/1..._-_Gloss_White_Helix.html?tl=g30c97s168#blank
I am very open to other recommendations as well.

take a look at the monsoon bay rez's there great have used both versions and i'm sold on them all the way for bay rez's but they do require a pump to mounted to them but in all honesty its the way to go. The one you linked keep in mind you'll have to purchase the cathode inverter kit separately for the cathode to work which in my personal opinion is total bullshit lol. Should come included with it.

It seriously doesn't come with that??? Wow that ridiculous. That monsoon one looks pretty badass though. Might go with that one.

I've used many different bay rez's and this one is by far the easiest to bleed. My alphacool repack even after a week or so would still have a small amout of air in the pump area that would finally work its way out after 7-10 days (no amount of case tilting shaking or whatever would dislodge it. But the monsoon's (I've had original and V2) both bled out within the initial stages of filling it. The only reason i'm not using one now is I have a Corsair Air 540 and its 5.25 bays are rotated 90degrees making bay rez's unusable without a huge pita filling technique. So I went with a D5 top and tube rez which bleeds equally well.

Like the idea of the tube res's just feel like the bay would look cleaner but the monsoon is def going in unless I decide to go the tube route which I don't think I am

another bonus to the monsoon is that you can use it for single OR dual loops, using only one pump. I had mine running dual loops for most of the time and single loop a short while before changing to the Air 540. Both ways ran a 420mm 60mm thick and 280mm 60mm thick alphacool rads. There was zero temp diff and both ways bled out equally well. Only thing dula did was make the tubing look messier as theres more of it to try and hide.

You should be a salesman cause I am sold sounds like it is what I am looking for!

I like the idea of a bay res, but the tube runs to and from it just imo, look awefull, especially bad when you 90% of the time have to have them a little longer, in order to fill them.

never had an issue filling it with a simple pour bottle. I've put it in the lowest of the 2 5.25 bays that way nothing above it so its easy access.

I was just gonna skip the first 5. 25 Bay as I still use a DVD Burner. Figured I could fill it and then slide the burner in afterwards.
