And to think I thought they were only using Swiftech parts. Seems they are trying their hand at their own engineering.

bad placement of the barbs IMO, would make it tough to route tubing.

After looking at it more, I'd put money on it that it has almost the exact same internals as the MCW6000.

i dunno about that enjoy. it looks like a piece of garbage to me. but i will hold judgement until i see some internal shots or some performance numbers on it.

I wonder who will be the first to disect this? I hate waiting lol...I wish the watercooling review community was larger. Or that I had enough money just to buy and test everything I see hehe.

IMO that doesnt look very good. From appearance a maze 4 looks like it could beat it for much less $

i have the corsair cool.. and just got a maze 4 for my 6800GT.. gonna have it set up soon.. the corsair ones looks dodgy.. and not the type of looks i want for my watercooling lol

bah I know nothing of expert block designs but any means but that looks like crap...not only does it seem like it'd kill flow, but as has been said....the tube placement would be a beeotch

i just found out y they would do that...

cause if u have the corsair cool ... u have to mount the rad behind the case and u need that design to actually go nicely out to the back.. i had a hard time trying to figure out how to mount my maze4.. we'll just see how it goes :)

well maybe there was some thought put into this thing. but as i said i will reserve final judgement till it gets tested by competent reviewer.
