Need new waterblock for Core i7:suggestions?

[tomb18]

Hi, I'm about to make the move to the core i7.
I currently have the dtek fuzion v1, and it seems they will never come out with a mounting plate for this block.
So, it's time to scrap it.

I looked at the Koolance 350 on NCIX and it says it doesn't come with nozzles? And it says it comes with g1/4 fittings? There doesn't seem to be any other options like nozzles etc on the NCIX web site and Petra's doesn't carry this (I know he would set me up with everything I need).

So, next is Swiftech Apogee GTZ with the 1366 mounting kit. The question I have about this one is does it come with a backplate? If not where can I get a 1366 blackplate?

Thanks

Yes, there's a backplate, I've installed it, with PA120.3 it's holding my 920 @ 3.8ghz around 60C, real nice waterblock imho

Swiftech Apogee GTZ does not come with a 1336 mounting plate, but an official swiftech one is available - and it is very nice. I am running a 965xe at 4.1Ghz stable at 31oc idle with a pa120.3 and 1 NB water block in the loop. Load never goes above 55oc. My temperatures on cores is not equal however, but i suspect a change in orientation will fix this.

The GTZ mount will work fine with the v1 with a bit of modding.

yup, GTZ's 1366 kit does come with a backplate although some like to replace it with Supreme's 1366 backplate for sturdiness or something
