Hey ppls!

Been a while since i posted here! Actually, since i posted on a forum...

I had a quick question. Ima going to re-loop \ clean my loops and I'm looking for a 90 degree metal barb to fit under my Ek 8800GTX block. Where could i find that and which one should i pick ?

I tried a quick search but didn't found a straight answer, sorry for this.

Looking for that kind of barb :

Well a tonne of people are going to mention the Bitspower rotaries so I might as well beat them.

The ones at the bottom let you use whatever fitting on it you want. (Compression or something other then Bitspower if thats what you would want)

So basically, i get one of those : http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=24140 and hook the barb i have at the moment on it and I'm done ? Will the pre-mounted barb on that fitting fit the whole in my block ?

Thanks!

It should. Bitspower fittings don't have a lot of threading.

You can always get some spacers to play it safe.

Naa I don't think any PC watercooling spacers are thin enough to work on a bitspower fitting as it only goes in 3-4 threads, its just not enough to require (or make it safe to use) one.

Just another option......though not as nice looking as the bitspower versions

DD Delrin/Acetal Elbows (http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=346_342&products_id=21438) would work too.
