Just got my new MP-05 SP LE

[flutie98]

After much debate, i finally replaced my aging swiffy 6002 block for a modern jet block. I decided on the AQ MP-05 SP LE as dtek had a sale on them for 59.99. XS member exa helped me along the buying path by asking to scoop up my 6002.

I have to say the over all build quality of this block is amazing, aside from the copper tarnish its was perfect.

And now some pics

Now result wise without the AS5 burning in i saw an initial drop of idle temps by about 1-2 C and load temps 3-5 C and a 1 C increase in idle temps of GPU

Yes. It's very nice looking block, I have the same one.. though the PRO version. By the way, what GPU block you are using?

How good is that block in comparison to say a Storm? Apogee?

kicks the crap out of the apogee, and is supposed to be on par or better than the storm, but no official testing has been done, if somone wants to mail me a storm for testing well than thats a different story

GPU block is a DD Maze4 GPU
