The HK blocks perform well traditionally. I was using the Heatkiller 2.0 and I was impressed. If you go back and search this forum many compared the current EK Supreme's baseplate to the baseplate Watercool used in the HK 2.0 block. I'm just happy we can finally get HK gear stateside. Big "Thumbs Up" to Sidewinder!

Check out HK's 295 block.

Looks much lighter than all Ive seen so far, what a work of art.

no standoffs. . .

Why is standoff's the new anithema?
Oh noes! I can't tighten it down with all my might.....
Every block I have owned didn't have them. My Aqua Computer block doesn't.

In the product description for the 295 block it states that special distance rings prevent over-tightening in the VRM-area. So it sounds like standoffs are included.

Can anyone confirm if the block comes with a backplate and if the block works with 1/2" ID 3/4" OD Bitspower/Feser Compressions?

Backplate is sold seperately and it won't work with 1/2" ID Feser compressions, it's not even close. It does work with the 45° Feser 1/2" compressions just fine though, I have it lying here in front of me :)

Le Chuck. That looks very nice!
When will see more pics of your builds/worklog? I want to see that hardrive block in action. I also think you showed us a homemade-rad box once too. Keep us posted on projects :)

Looks like compression fittings won't work on these right?

How about buying em from Watercool http://www.watercool.de/online-shop/ it's Germany (EU) so no worries.

Very trick block and you just can't beat German millwork and Engineering IMO.

give us a small preview, and i hope you also got the original watercool backplate!

Not sure it makes any difference, but I always like to get it right per the instructions is possible.

andyc

afaik away form mb

does the 1366 backplate come with those red standoffs so the backplate is flat on the motherboard backplate?

how is the mounting mechanism? it looks great on the pics!

will post some results once i get my rig done, i can't do comparisons between other blocks but with the aquaero i will be able to measure flow and water/core delta :up:
