Bitspower gives you the option of selecting 2 types of connectors, a mini connector and a full size one. Does anyone have any pros or cons on which one to use?

Which you use depends on how close your GPU's are to one another. If you have the room, use the full, if not, use the mini's. I just did a build with two 580's with EK blocks and used the mini's. Works great.
If you do not know the spacing, go with the mini's. If you have the cards, mobo, etc, just start measuring.

The mini has less tolerance for improper length tubes or movement as the o-rings are stacked next to each other while the full size has a small gap between them.

Thank you, that explains everything.
