Very nice. I have all the exact same blocks and board...lol. I was wondering if anyone had any trouble fitting video cards around the south bridge block. I am still modding the case and did not fit a video card in yet but by the looks of it the top video slot is going to have trouble if I try to stick a 9800Gx2 in there. Should I just go with a water cooled 3870X2?
I could not mount my 3870X2 with the stock cooler on it because of the sb block, but with the EK X2 block it works great! (hey thats marketing for ya)Quote:

I think I am going to try out the new koolance 45 degree swivel to see if I can have all 1/2" compression fittings as well to keep kinks out of the way. I tried it all with the supplied barbs and have only one slight kink but that's not good enough for me so back to the drawing board.
Here is the swivel linky;

I wonder if these will hamper flow too much. These things look to be a life saver in many areas for my loop especially if I can use compression fittings on the Fuzion, SB and NB blocks. Not to mention less likelihood of kinks.
