There is NO room for 1/2" ID tubing around the RAM slots, especially not with the tight bends needed for RAM waterclocks. Even 3/8" ID would be pushing it. RAM waterblocks need to be on a seperate loop from everything else due to the restriction involved in thin enough blocks.
I envision a small pump and a double sized 80mm radiator for a RAM watercooling loop, and like you EnJoY, I would be willing to build such a loop if the parts presented themselves for a reasonable price.
I am confident that the gains would be worthwhile, especially given that properly made waterblocks would be a good future-proof investment and would fit DDR1/DDR2.
This design is the best that I have seen so far. If it was copper, and didn't have a logo, it would be purchase-worthy in my opinion.
But not for $50, that's piracy.
The only people who would benefit from such a block are people with the know-how to use it effectively in a dedicated loop, on some very hot memory seeing a lot of stress and abuse (like BH-5 being run at 3.8V+ and high speeds, or some Micron). So, it is clear to me that the market this block was made for, is the market with more money than know-how. Which is really lame in my opinion. Overpriced, inferior products.
And i wouldn't buy one without seeing the internals first.
