I've currently have the V3 block and was wondering if i would see a improvement on temps if i switched to the EK block. current loop is mcp355 with ek v2 top, tfc 480 rad, ek 285gtx block and ek spin bay res.

The big v3 advantage is low restriction - the LT is very high restriction. I'd suggest the difference would be negligible on cpu temp and youd likely see slightly hotter gfx temps. I wouldn't bother tbh :). The LT is more suited to single block loops whereas the V3 you have now is ideal for multi block loops.

The EK Supreme was high restriction as it has a plate inside but the LT is much lower restriction and has been shown to cool i7 better, very close to HK3.0 however I doubt you will see more than 1 or 2 degrees celcius difference.

Still way higher restriction than the V3 ;).

Not dissing the LT, superb block and a great price.
