Im using 2 here with convection cooling and they do real well with that also, so heat transfer is good.

awesome... exactly what i wanted to hear. :up:

i'll definitely be picking one up.

The USPS lady was good to me today.

How about some pictures for starters...

That is sick, hell yeah!

I like how many XS users, especially Martin, take better pictures than the ones produced by the manufacturer. It looks TOO good!

I want this block; my Fuzion V1 is good and all but I wish I knew about stepped bases being better than bowing and all. And $40... wow!

Thanks!

I love my camera toys almost more than my testing toys..:)

I was thinking of you guys..;)

*want*

And I don't even use the compression fittings :shocked:

Hell for that price, I may just use it in my future Windows Homer Server box lol.

So my Photo skills are not good ;) LOL

I know a manufacturer in Taiwan (not BP) who makes compression fittings, would you guys be interested if OCZ were to offer these also?
I can also get quick connects in plastic and stainless...these something you looking for?

Let me know what you want, I will judge interest and if its workable I will get it ;)

Nice pics Martin:up: If the test results looks good then i will surely buy one for watercooling my HTPC.

I WANT QUICK CONNECTS!

However plastic ones look ugly (from what i've seen so far) and stainless well... its steel :s

But after seeing it used by some people and the ease at which it allows changing of blocks/hardware without having to drain the loop, I simply must have them in my next rebuild.

As for compression fittings well.. the more the merrier :) Especially if you can bring the price down.

I seem to remember them being either plastic or stainless, there may have been Nickel plated Brass also...im checking.

Tony, we're always interested in new bits. :D

I'm not a fan of compressions, so I withhold opinion there.

As for the quick disconnects, got any shots, are they flow restrictive at all?

F-Yes! Nickel plated QDC would be awesome.

What about these? http://www.koolance.com/water-coolin...product_id=708
and yes, it's from the devil

EDIT but from the Koolance thread

If you can make them at least as good as Koolance, made out of nickle plated something and be priced competitive with Koolance compression then I woud definitely be interested. The Koolance go for $9 a pair, but are a gray color and I would like the silver look. Also, having some 90 degree swivels would be great too.

Also, a NB and SB block to match the CPU block would be great. Some acrylic tops in the mix also for the "BLING" factor. Oh, don't forget the GPU blocks, FC and GPU only. We need as many choices as possibly and if the quality is as good as your ram then we will have another quality vendor for w/cing.

Oh, don't forget the GPU blocks, FC and GPU only FC nope not going there...universal GPU block is where its at. We need as many choices as possibly and if the quality is as good as your ram then we will have another quality vendor for w/cing.
